So, this was not how you planned it
No, oh you don't understand it
Why, is it so misleading
When all you really wanted became so defeating
Time, well it only got harder
Thought you had one but it was another
Then, you believed in a breakthrough
But it took you by surprise when you came out a fool

You gotta fail a thousand times
Before you see it through
You gotta spend your last dime
Before you ever make a million
You gotta know what brought you here
And you gotta lose to persevere
But it's the way the sun will rise
Through the darkest night
Yeah, it's always been worth the fight

Hope, it can make you courageous
It started out small, but now it's contagious
Strength, it's an honor you earn
When you look back and see all the lessons you've learned

You gotta fail a thousand times
Before you see it through
You gotta spend your last dime
Before you ever make a million
You gotta know what brought you here
And you gotta lose to persevere
But it's the way the sun will rise
Through the darkest night
Yeah, it's always been worth the fight

You gotta fail a thousand times
Before you see it through
You gotta spend your last dime
Before you ever make a million
You gotta know what brought you here
And you gotta lose to persevere
But it's the way the sun will rise
Through the darkest night
Yeah, it's always been worth the fight
Yeah, it's always been worth the fight
