[Verse 1:]
I walk out on center stage
And they look back at me
A blank look on their faces thinking,
"Who's he gonna be?"
I've tied on my shoes many times,
I've fixed my suit and tie
When the music starts to play,
I know, now it's do or die
My feet start to move across the stage,
My smile spreads ear to ear
I hit the notes, I raise the roof
The crowd they stood and cheered
And now it's time for us to wait
Who will they decide?
You smiled at him, you looked at me and said,
"You're off this ride!!!"

[Chorus:]
We're young and free
And we're gonna live our dreams
We're young and free
And there's nothing stopping me
They say, we're young
And that we don't see the truth
We know, we know
And there's nothing left to prove

(Hey)

[Verse 2:]
I walk out on center field
To try out for the team
All the guys, they want the spot
Just as much as me
The whistle blows, I've got the ball,
I've got to reach that line!
I quick, one, two and now I'm through
I know I'm in this time
Now it's time for us to wait,
They're looking at us all
They start calling names, you turn to me and say,
"You're just too small!!!"

[Chorus]

Well there's no way I'm gonna break,
And you see that I ain't no fake
You can see, the real me
You don't believe that I have the key
You think my head is down, but I'm workin' harder
That I must've been gettin' smarter
Yeah, I've got depth like the deepest harbor
So watch out, I'm just getting started!

[Chorus x2]

We're young, and free
We're young, we're free
We know, we know
Yeah, we know, we know
