Door clicks shut Dust on the road at my feet Mom in the doorway Says "Don't forget to brush your teeth" One backpack One map marked up in red Six empty spaces On the belt around my waist First step feels like forever Heartbeat louder than the crowd Tiny partner by my shoulder Sparks are flying Saying out loud "We'll take this world on my friend, One badge at a time!" Every scar on my belt, is a light in the sky! When the path bends, I won’t break! I’ll just rise! With my friends at my side... We’re burning our names into time! I swear I’ll be the very best... Till the whole world shines! Rust-brick town Neon port in the rain High-rise roofs Where we trained above the trains Gym doors slam Leader’s eyes like steel "Show me your heart" "Not just how confident you feel" Rival waiting on the sidewalk Classic convertible, girls on both arms, Says "Later Loser" Drives off laughing But he'll find out someday... We'll take this world on, my friends! One badge at a time! Every scar on my belt, is a light in the sky! When the path bends, I won’t break! I’ll just rise! With my friends at my side... We’re burning our names into time! I swear I’ll be the very best... Till the whole world shines! Some nights by the roadside fire (oh) Shadows dancing on tired faces Road seems to stretch on forever... Lost count of all the places... I fall down They stand guard They fall down I lift hard We’ve been changing Rearranging Same hearts Brand-new stars We were strangers, Now we’re stories On each other’s battle scars! Every "loss" became a lesson Now the whole world’s in our arms! We'll take this world on, my friends! One badge at a time, Every scar on my belt, is a light in the sky! When the path bends, I won’t break! I’ll just rise! With my friends at my side... We’re burning our names into time! I swear I’ll be the very best... Till the whole world shines...! Now the lights roar! Banners fly! This is our day (hey!) Every rival I’ve faced stands in my way, But my heart beats in rhythm with the ones by my side, We were small! Now we’re giants! We’re a storm! Bonafide! Lets take this world on, my friends! Final battle tonight! Every fear in my chest, turning straight into light When the dust clears... Win or lose, I’ll still cry, ‘Cause we climbed! We survived! We chased our dreams through the skies... And together at the very end... We made the whole world shine!
