The Moment Of Truth
Survivor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you're alone, you ask yourself
what are you searching for?
Deep in the night, a dream is born
one that you can't ignore.
If you think you can find the passion
and you're ready to take a chance,
If you really believe you can make it
then the power is in your own hands
[Chours]
It's the moment of truth you're giving it all,
standing alone willing to fall.
If you can do it, get up and prove it,
get up and show them who you are.
It's the moment of truth, it's all on a line,
this is the place, this is the time,
waiting forever, it's now or it's never, nothing can stop you now.
[Verse 2]
Once in your life, you make a choise, ready to risk it all.
Deep in your soul, you hear a voice, answering to the call.
Though you know that it won't be easy,
it's a promise you made for love,
for the people that keeps believing,
and the one that you're thinking of.
[Chours x3]
