Story Behind The Song
I have seen and experienced a lot of negativity among people who do not like to see others succeed, but I have not let these people deter me from pursuing my dreams. I have realized that people will always try to put you down and will always try to find something negative to talk about, but if you believe in yourself, never give up, and surround yourself with people who support you, you will succeed and you will achieve your dreams.

Lyrics
Give up before you fail, stop trying and dream on they say!
You're just a mess about to happen. You won't make it. No way!
So many places. Unfriendly faces.
Just wanna leave and run away.
Don't waste your time, you won't succeed, do something else they tell me.
You must be blind, you're nothing great, look in the mirror. You'll see!
These voices 'round me, they fuel the fire.
And they begin to unleash the tiger.
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
There's nothing you can't do if you believe.
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
There's nothing you can't do if you believe.
Your hair's too short, too long, and everything about it's not right!
And did I mention you're no model and your clothes are too tight!
My head is spinning. There's just no winning.
Nothing on earth can help this feeling.
They kiss you, hug you, when they see you and they tell you you're great!
Then they turn around and whisper to their friends. Their so fake!
These voices 'round me, they fuel the fire.
And they begin to unleash the tiger.
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
There's nothing you can't do if you believe.
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
There's nothing you can't do if you believe.
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
Reach for the High. Reach for the High. The power's inside.
Reach for the High. Reach for the High.
The power's inside.
Be who you are and listen to your heart.
This is your life, not imaginary art.
Follow your dreams, don't listen to their lies.
The eagle flies, and the spirit never dies!
Reach for the High. The power's inside.
There's nothing you can't do if you believe.
Reach for the High. (For the High!)
The power's inside.
There's nothing you can't do if you believe. (You believe! You believe!)
