Lyrics

When I was young I was told
That you become the plans you make
So stand up tall, Life is short
Nothing blundered nothing gained
You will learn you will grow
You’ll pursue and lose and gain
Our achievements in the end
Are memories that fade
If I climbed the highest mountain
Just to see the stars
Would I forget what’s underneath me
The ones who hold my heart
If I ran a thousand miles
To prove how strong I am
Or if I made us millions
Just to show you all I can
If I stopped to see that who I am
Is not what I have done
If I, if I, if I,
Could love myself enough
Life is not fair, You get one
So don’t waste it all away
Do not fear the unknown
Please be kind and don’t be vain
All these words change our course
To vast wide open plains
And in the end the cup is filled
By how we loved along the way
If I climbed the highest mountain
Just to see the stars
Would I forget what’s underneath me
The ones who hold my heart
If I ran a thousand miles
To prove how strong I am
Or if I made us millions
Just to show you all I can
If I stopped to see that who I am
Is not what I have done
If I, if I, if I,
Could love myself enough
I’m my own worst enemy
Fear of failing to be seen
Always doubting that I am enough
I know deep down that there is more
A peace that I’ve been waiting for
No need to prove I’m worthy to be loved
If I climbed the highest mountain
Underneath the stars
I would look out on my people
The give them my whole heart
I could run 1,000 miles
But God knows I really can’t
Or make us all some millions
But that’s likely not the plan
If I stopped to see that who I am
Is not what I have done
If I, if I, if I could love myself enough
If I, if I, if I could see how I am loved
