Battle Cry Lyrics

I tried to make you proud
You said I had my head in the clouds
I've spent a lifetime
Stuck in the same lines

Gathered up each grain of sand
Built my castle in your hands
Then I spent a lifetime
Trying not to cry

Look at me now
The diamonds I've found
This might not last forever
But it might do something better

I believe this is bigger than you and me
You will see the crowds swelling in revelry
I am ready and if that means goodbye
Then it's time to fly into the light
Nothing but sky and this strong battle cry

You telling me I'd never make it
Left me needing to prove you mistaken
I've spent a lifetime
Waiting for my time

There was something in the wreckage
A tiny piece of who I knew I'd be I'm setting it free

Look at me now
The diamonds I've found
This might not last forever
But it might do something better

I believe this is bigger than you and me
You will see the crowds swelling in revelry
I am ready and if that means goodbye
Then it's time to fly into the light
Nothing but sky and this strong battle cry

Stopped asking questions
Stopped asking permission
Now I won't come undone or rebel
And all that's left are the stories we tell

I believe this is bigger than you and me
You will see the crowds swelling in revelry
I am ready and if that means goodbye
Then it's time to fly into the light
Nothing but sky and this strong battle cry
