The View From Here

From Unchained
Verse 1 I remember dreaming in the dark Windows lit like distant stars I used to wonder what it meant To feel this high and still feel calm Pre-Chorus Every step I took still led me here Funny how the air gets clearer Chorus From the view from here Everything’s in place I can see the long way I don’t need the race Gold doesn’t weigh me down It just reminds me how I earned the ground I’m standing on From the view from here Verse 2 Lights below like moving lines I don’t miss them — I just smile I didn’t climb to disappear I climbed so I could stay awhile Pre-Chorus Funny how the noise falls quiet When you don’t need their approval Chorus From the view from here I breathe a little deeper Every doubt gets smaller Every truth gets clearer I don’t owe the sky a thing I just spread my wings And let the silence say it all From the view from here Bridge No crown on my head But the sun knows my name I don’t chase the spotlight It found me the same Final Chorus From the view from here I don’t look down afraid I look out and know now I was built this way If the world feels far below That’s just how it goes When you rise and don’t pretend From the view from here Outro Yeah… I’m not leaving I’m just standing here
