Live for the Future
You gotta live for the new
When you don’t have a clue
That’s when life is really true
You gotta live for the new
Even when it hurts like hell
You gotta keep walking straight
Live for you
Live for the new
Same old days
Same old ways
When will something be better
But then it changes
Everything rearranges
And you find the joy to make it
Cause your finish line ain’t in sight
And you don’t know what else might
Come your way
Despite every pain
You ain’t done
You’ll be happy again
All the new things you will feel
All the new places you will go
Everything you haven’t done yet
Live your life to know
Just how amazing it will be
When you make it to your dream
You can live beautiful for you
Just live for the new
