Abruptly, I opened my eyes
Brain's been asleep, but I've been alive
I cannot change the past - a set future, I defy
We're told our fate's up in the stars, but we're here on earth
I've witnessed; realized: Life passes by
When you're looking down and succumb to fear
Overwhelmed by doubts, nobody hears you shout
Feels like your world will soon collapse
So now I'll aim high, head unbowed
I'm never going stop - I'll keep my demons down
I'll design my soul's path
I'm never going to give up my most deep desires
I am the master of my fate
My voice will never fade (FADE)
Indifferent no more, to the life a I lead
So, rise up; follow me
Ooh, Oh. We've been granted the Promised Land
Believe in me - just take my hand
I'll take you there. Let's both be grand
Ooh, Oh. We're standing in the Promised Land
Believe that you can be the one
Have faith that you will be the one
They say you only get one chance
But it's the land of the opportunities
I want to be the man I'm meant to be
But only I will be the one to change my life
Chase that dream
For I'm a warrior, who is lion-hearted
I will not be flawless, but intrepid, dauntless
Must listen to my heart and take that leap
Ooh, Oh. We've been granted the Promised Land
Believe in me - just take my hand
I'll take you there. Let's both be grand
Ooh, Oh. We're standing in the Promised Land
Believe that you can be the one
Have faith that you will be the one
Happiness is fleeting, but the glory is forever
So Open Your Eyes (eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes!)
And for once realize
(Get rid of the lies that keep holding you back)
That you are free of mind; this is your life
Be imaginative; be unrealistic
But just stay committed, and never do quit
No matter what challenge ahead you may hit
Won't be discouragements (I will, I will not quit!)
They'll be testaments to how you overcame all odds
Your soul will be unconquerable (I will, I will conquer!)
And never you will fade away
For you are the great ones who embraced (I will, I will not quit!)
You can do what you want with a bit of faith
Because you are the ones who were chosen (I will, I will conquer!)
And this, this is the Promised Land
Ooh, Oh, we've been granted the Promised Land
Believe in me...
Ooh, Oh. We've been granted the Promised Land
Believe in me - just take my hand
I'll take you there. Let's both be grand
Ooh, Oh. We're standing in the Promised Land
Believe that you can be the one
Have faith that you will be the one, the one
Believe in...
(I will - I will not quit!)
(I will - I will conquer!)
