If you wanna lead, be a leader
If you wanna dream, be a dreamer
Climb to the top of that mountain and scream it
But remember when you get to the top
Everything you say is gonna matter
Everything you do is gonna add up
So don't get mad when it′s not what you thought
Careful now, girl, with them Jezebel ways
Crown on your head, but you're queen of clichés
Little one playing with the big boys now
Hope you're ready when it comes back around
I had a dream that we were more
Lighting fires with our words
Instead of useless smoke that blurs
The lines of right and wrong
That lingers when we′re gone
If you wanna preach, be a preacher
If you wanna teach, be a teacher
Remember that the footprints you′re leaving
Will tell us all who you really are
It's too bad you can′t see what you're worth
Spreading your legs ′stead of using your words
Character is shown by the things that we do
The one thing you're never gonna hide is the truth
′Cause anyone can sell when they're selling out
And anyone can fly when they're falling down
I had a dream that we were more
Lighting fires with our words
Instead of useless smoke that blurs
The lines of right and wrong
That lingers when we′re gone
I had a dream that we were more
(I had a dream that we were)
Lighting fires with our words
(Lighting fires with our words)
Instead of useless smoke that blurs
The lines of right and wrong
Expression that lives on (lives on)
That lingers when we′re gone
