Test the Limits - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I could tell you what you want to hear to hold you off another year

But I hope the truth finds you well

A common praise, a passing phase

Moving forward? Not today!

The limit's in the sky, but will you be reaching it tonight?

Tonight you got to test the limits and tell yourself that

"I'm alive!" Just make that choice and draw that line tonight

Tonight you got to test the limits and tell yourself that

"I'm alive, and I'm not going anywhere!"

No chance to be free

No chance to soar in the sky

Your feet fixed to the ground

Desperation is what's weighing you down

Whether my strength be heaven sent

Or my own self-confidence

These days when I'm walking through a crowd

I don't have to hold my head down

No more wasting time, burn bright like a star, ignite

The limit's in the sky but will you be reaching it tonight?

Tonight you got to test the limits and tell yourself that

"I'm alive!" Just make that choice and draw that line tonight

Tonight you got to test the limits and tell yourself that

"I'm alive, and I'm not going anywhere!"

"Be a leader and never ever follow"

That's what my father, that's what he always told me

So with those words boldly spoken, he sent me down a long and hard road

Shrug it off my shoulders, it was never meant for me

I won't waste my time in mediocrity

Tonight I'm alive
