[Verse 1 — Female] Wake up Check the time Check your face Check your life [Verse 1 — Male] They’re richer They’re younger They’re further You’re wondering why [Pre-Chorus — Female & Male] Work more, want more, what for? When is enough enough? Learn the rules, play the part Get so good you forget to ask— [Chorus — Female Lead with Male Response] Who told you (who told you) You’re too late? Who told you (who told you) There’s one way? Who told you You need more? Is it yours? Is it true? Is that dream even you? [Verse 2 — Male] Do it right, make them proud Keep it up, don’t slow down Say yes, stay nice, don’t think twice Look good, live right Chase that line day and night [Verse 2 — Female] They gave me the map, I followed the rowt Checked every box, still had my doubts More for the money, more for the name Get to the top then do it again [Pre-Chorus — Male & Female Duet] Who made the rules? Who made the race? Who said success had to look one way? I cut the noise, got out of my way If this is my life, I'll live it my way [Chorus — Male Lead with Female Response] Who told you (who told you) You’re too late? Who told you (who told you) There’s one way? Who told you You need more? Is it yours? Is it true? Is that dream even you? [Bridge — Female & Male Call and Response] [Female] If nobody saw it, would you still want it? [Male] If nobody praised it, would you still love it? [Female] If nobody told you who you should be— [Both] Who would you be? Who would you be? [Final Chorus — Both Duet] Who told you You’re too late? Who told you There’s one way? Who told you You need more? Who told you? Who told you? Is it yours? Is it true? Is that dream even you? [Outro — Both Soft Harmony] Who told you? Is it yours? Is it true? Who told you?
