[Intro] Now’s the time… Let’s kick the day in gear Got a chronic illness, join in and cheer It’s go-time—jump aboard! Three, two, one ... you’re burning hot Put a fire in your soul Time for the Chronic sing-along, Let's rock ’n roll [Verse 1] A brand-new day begins, believe me, bro Life may crawl at times, moving slow Chronic pain can floor you—stay defiant Stand tall for yourself, rise up, be a giant [Verse 2] Don’t let illness keep you confined Find the strength inside and let it unwind Train and fight for the goals you pursue There’s art, love, and laughter still waiting for you [announcer] (Sing it loud!) (You know the words!) [Chorus] I'm **still alive—can't break my stride** Feel the **fire inside—letting my rhythm vibe** **Still alive—shining bright** Raising my voice high—*watch me fly* [Whistle Solo] [Verse 3] Even if the morning feels a bit gray There are splashes of color still heading your way Set your goals sky-high, shout them out loud Hold your head high, stay proud Even when that play won’t wow the crowd [Bridge] Maybe you feel worn-out and weak But in your heart waves a banner unique Raise it high every day of the week Let the critics’ stones bounce off your streak [announcer] What do we say? [Chorus] I'm **still alive—can't break my stride** Feel the **fire inside—letting my rhythm vibe** **Still alive—shining bright** Raising my voice high—*watch me fly* [Big Finish] Crank it up fast, Feed the furnace with coal, Let it burst like a blast, Punch a galaxy-sized hole In the universe, right there, Where the dull and dreary choke on stale air [Hook] I believe in you—you’ve got this! (Come on, one last time) (Make it so loud) (The echo rings for weeks; Make me proud) [Final Chorus] I'm **still alive—can't break my stride** Feel the **fire inside—letting my rhythm vibe** **Still alive—shining bright** Raising my voice high—*watch me fly* [Spoken word] Yeeeahh! You’ve got this stuff! I’m crazy proud of you—you’re too cool! (Yeah) [end]
