Lyrics

Before you go
I just want you to hear this
I never told you
what my real name is
When I was young
I would play defense
'cause in my home
love was a contest
But, when you're looking
deep in my eyes
all of the nightmares
turn into light
You help me
let go
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
You push me
to grow
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
Traded my sword
in for my spirit
I'd rather die than
give up my freedom
One of these days
I will have children
I'll teach them to question
and to be fearless
And when I look in
deep in their eyes
Won't need to hide
behind my disguise
You help me
let go
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
You push me
to grow
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
When on a losing streak
and I'm feeling blue
I can read this letter
think of you
think of you
You help me
let go
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
You help me
let go
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
You push me
to grow
Maybe I can make it
Maybe I can make it
