## Lyrics

(hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya

hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa

hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-sa

go-la-ra-say-ya-say-he-ga)

(hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya

hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa

hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-sa

go-la-ra-say-ya-say-he-ga)

Can't you see that the road's much brighter when your focus is enlightened by a purpose divine? (Divine)

Can't you see that your tone's much lighter when your focus is infected with a positive mind?

Let me tell you that the time stops tickin' when you're driven. (driven driven driven)

Let me tell you that you know you're livin' when you're driven. (driven driven driven)

Let me tell you that you can't stop givin' when you're driven. (driven driven driven)

Let me tell you that your heart is thrivin' when you're driven. (driven driven driven)

Woah-oh-woah-oh

Can't you see that the times you've suffered are more worth it when you know you changed another man's life?

Can't you see that the dreams you're given are to drive you to your purpose where the spirit resides?

If you find that the fate of the world has fallen face to your foes, may you find in the spirit of God the truth of your purpose untold.

If your thoughts give you chills and you crave of its thrills, then you have a call to fulfill.

Put your dreams into motion and find you've been chosen to change this untaught world.

May the light that you shine in the darkest of times show through and be a blessing to all.

Fell the power, the surge, and the fight God bestowed in you, fulfill your purpose divine and rise now! (now now now)

Can't you see that the road's much brighter when your focus is enlightened by a purpose divine? (Divine) (hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya, hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa)

Can't you see that your tone's much lighter when your focus is infected with a positive mind? (hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-sa, go-la-ra-say-ya-say-he-ga)

Let me tell you that the time stops tickin' when you're driven. (hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa)

Let me tell you that you know you're livin' when you're driven. (hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya)

Let me tell you that you can't stop givin' when you're driven. (hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa)

Let me tell you that your heart is thrivin' when you're driven. (hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya)

Can't you see that the times you've suffered are more worth it when you know you changed another man's life?

(hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya, hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa)

Can't you see that the dreams you're given are to drive you to your purpose where the spirit resides?

(hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-sa, go-la-ra-say-ya-say-he-ga)

If you find that the fate of the world has fallen face to your foes, may you find in the spirit of God the truth of your purpose untold.

If your thoughts give you chills and you crave of its thrills, then you have a call to fulfill.

Put your dreams into motion and find you've been chosen to change this untaught world.

May the light that you shine in the darkest of times show through and be a blessing to all.

Feel the power, the surge, and the fight God bestowed in you, fulfill your purpose divine and rise now! (now now now)

Rise now! (now now now)

Can you feel it! (now now now)

Rise now! (now now now)

I-I-I-I-I Rise now! (now now now)

I can feel all the power inside like a lightning bolt racin' through my mind.

Ev'ry time that I'm thinkin' 'bout why I'm here, my life, my call, my time to fly.

When I stand up tall and proud, to be the one who's called to alter lives.

You see I get all fired up, feel the energy that seeps into my dreams.

This is the world you've come to see.

Through all the bad times you've believed.

You knew one day your truth would reign.

Your dreams, your life, your mind, your say.

(hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-ya

hey-ya-nya-no-day-nya-sa

hey-ya-na-no-yay-ya-no-na-no-sa

go-la-ra-say-ya-say-he-ga)

If your thoughts give you chills and you crave of its thrills, then you have a call to fulfill.

Put your dreams into motion and find you've been chosen to change this untaught world.

May the light that you shine in the darkest of times show through and be a blessing to all.

Feel the power, the surge, and the fight God bestowed in you, fulfill your purpose divine and rise now! (now now now)
