Lyrics

When You Come from Nothing

I was nobody - just a face in the crowd
With a dream far too big to get off the ground
People told me, "You're crazy - it ain't gonna fly
There's no way you can make it, so don't even try"
I could've told myself, that's just how it is
Accepted my fate, oh but I never did

I held on to my dreams, somehow I believed
Someday I'd sail past the clouds
Even when times were tough, I never gave up
No, I wouldn't give into those doubts
Oh, you've gotta believe in something
Yeah, you've gotta believe in something
When you come from nothing

It ain't always easy keeping the faith
Blocking out all of the things people say
You learn who loves you, you learn who to trust
You learn that the rest doesn't matter that much
I just did my best, that's all I could do
I believed in myself, they believed in me to too

I held on to my dreams, somehow I believed
Someday I'd sail past the clouds
Even when times were tough, I never gave up
No, I wouldn't give into those doubts
Oh, you've gotta believe in something
Yeah, you've gotta believe in something
When you come from nothing

Instrumental

I held on to my dreams, somehow I believed
Someday I'd sail past the clouds
Even when times were tough, I never gave up
No, I wouldn't give into those doubts
Oh, you've gotta believe in something
Yeah, you've gotta believe in something
When you come from nothing
