Kings and might-have-beens

Carry yourself like a king
Lift up your voice and sing
A song for anyone who has ever dared
To find the way out when they were going nowhere.

Open your eyes and see
A day like you want it to be
With everything there just for the taking
You don't need permission to have everything.

Lost without and found within
Step inside your second skin
Time now to begin
To let go all that might have been.

Carry yourself like a king
Lift up your voice and sing
A song for the others now running scared
Left far behind as though they were never there.

Open your eyes to see
It's more than you thought it could be
With everything there just for the taking
And no one to keep you from anything.

Lost without and found within
Step inside your second skin
'Cause the one you're in
Is wearing out and wearing thin.

Lost without and found within
Slip inside your second skin
Time now to begin
To let go all that might have been.
