Keep your head up
Try and listen to your heart
Be kind always
No matter
We all grow up
Then someday we'll say goodbye
So shine your light
While you got one
Make the most of what you got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head
Fill up your heart
And take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Once 'round just once
Take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
You fill your head
Fill up your heart
'Cause that's all we got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Through your window
Well that's one way to see the world
Step outside and look back into
Look and listen
And you'll decide what you believe
Shine your light while you got one
And make the most of what you got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head
Fill up your heart
And take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be someone you're not
That's not a star that's a satellite
I'm stepping out
Stepping out
Yes it is
That's not a star that's a satellite
Listen up listen up
Let's get out
Must have got out sometime during the night
Leave something outside for him
That's not a star that's a satellite
That's not a star that's a satellite

I believe you're right Ellen.
The lyric says it:
Make the most of what you've got
Don't waste time being trying to be something you're not
Fill up (Phillip) your head and
fill up (Phillip) you heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're
I think it's a kind song, but I remember disliking PP because I felt like he was ripping Dave off so bad.
But it's funny because I feel like this has to be killing Dave lol. For him to write a song about it heheh
