[Verse]

There are leaders and those who only wish to follow and be fed

And there are strangers with stolen power

And there are reasons that come tomorrow

And is it nature's way for you to run today and be free?

[Chorus]

Do you want to be a legend

Or a passing footprint on the sands of time?

Do you want to be a failure

Or the best example of a man who lived to use his mind

[Bridge]

Imagine what you could be...

[Verse]

And there are rebels who can't be silenced, they remind us how to see

And there are prophets, believing visions

While many others, put trust in science

And there are dreamers who must get through to your soul

[Chorus]

Do you want to be a legend

Or a passing footprint on the sands of time?

Do you want to be a failure

Or the best example of a man who lived to use his mind

[Bridge]

Imagine what you could be

With that feeling of symmetry

And your eye for beauty

Then you've faith in the impossible

Imagine what you could be...

[Verse]

And there are lovers of skills forgotten by great people in their haste

But there is no one who knows what you know

And that's the knowledge you should not waste

And teachers point the way but only you can find the place

[Chorus]

Do you want to be a legend

Or a passing footprint on the sands of time?

Do you want to be a failure

Or the best example of a man who lived to use his mind

[Bridge]

Imagine what you could be...

Imagine what you could be...

[Outro]

Do you want to be a legend

Or a passing footprint on the sands of time? - Just use your mind!

Do you want to be a failure

Or the best example of a man who used his mind

Do you want to be a legend

Or a passing footprint on the sands of time? - Just use your mind!

Do you want to be a failure

Or the best example of a man who used his mind
