Adams Yolanda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trapped inside an ordinary girl
She looks just like me
To afraid to dream out loud
And though it's set for your idea
It won't make sense to everybody
You need courage now
To fulfill your divine purpose
You've gotta answer when you're called
So don't be afraid to face the world
Against all odds
Keep the dream alive don't let it die, if something deep inside
Keeps inspiring you to try, don't stop
And never give up; don't ever give up on you
Don't give up
Every victory comes in time
Work today to change tomorrow
It gets easier
Who's to say that you can't fly?
Every step you take you gets
Closer to your destination
You can feel it now
Don't you know you're almost there?
To fulfill your life's purpose
You've gotta' answer when you're called
So don't be afraid to face the world
Against all odds
Keep the dream alive don't let it die, if something deep inside
Keeps inspiring you to try, don't stop
And never give up; don't ever give up on you
Sometimes life can place a stubborn block in your way
But you've gotta keep the faith
Reap what deep inside your heart
To fly
And never give up
Don't ever give up on you,
Don't give up
Who holds the pieces to complete the puzzle?
The answer that can solve the mystery
The key that can unlock your understanding
It's all inside of you
You have everything you need
So, keep the dream alive don't let it die
If something deep inside keeps inspiring you to try
Don't stop
And never give up; don't ever give up on you
Sometimes life can place a stubborn block on your way
But you've gotta keep the faith
Bring what's deep inside your heart
To the light
And never give up
Don't ever give up on you
No don't give up
No, no, no, no
Don't give up
Don't give up
Don't give up
Oh, don't, no, no, no, no
Don't, give, up
