ASHLEY SLACK lyrics : "Little Rebel Child"
Did they catch you dreaming
With your head in the clouds
Trying to escape a reality
That you're surrounded by
I know it's hard
I know it's hard
To fight your way out of the dark to see
The picture perfect life they've painted
You're just an inkblot
In their masterpiece
But you've got your own light
Don't ever let them dull your shine
Break out the mold they've drawn and
Give them hell when you redraw the lines
Little rebel child
Spread your wings and learn to fly
The ground is just a base, a port
For your imagination to soar
And when they say that what you want
Just cannot be done
You smile back
And set fire to the tracks
Keep dreaming on
Little rebel child
Did you find yourself
Lost along the way
Searching far and wide
For someone like you
To come out and play
You know it's hard
You know it's hard
To raise your voice and sing to those
Who just don't understand
You sing a melody of "hopes" and "cans"
And they live in a world of "can't" and "won't"
And "shouldn't ever try"
But you've got your own voice
You've got to show them how to sing
Write your own score
And teach them a thing or two about how to live
Little rebel child
Spread your wings and learn to fly
The ground is just a base, a port
For your imagination to soar
And when they say that what you want
Just cannot be done
You smile back
And set fire to the tracks
Keep dreaming on
Don't you know your life is up to your design
There's no waiting for the stars to align
Just take the words inside your head, your heart, your soul
And make a better world, a dream to call your own
Little rebel child
Spread your wings and learn to fly
The ground is just a base, a port
For your imagination to soar
And when they say that what you want
Just cannot be done
You smile back
And set fire to the tracks
Keep dreaming on.
