Chart Your Course

Lyrics
[pdf]
(Verse 1)
They'll all tell you which road to take,
Which boxes to check, which plans to make.
They'll map your life out and weigh your load,
But your heart knows a very different road.
(Chorus 1)
So chart your course, let the compass spin,
Where your true north lies, let the journey begin.
Don't fear the whispers, the doubting glance,
Your sun is rising, so take your chance.
(Verse 2)
Some paths glitter bright with polished stone,
Others wind through dark you must face alone.
Though voices behind you shout and plead
Your own small voice is the song you need.
(Chorus)
So chart your course, let the compass spin,
Where your true north lies, let the journey begin.
Ignore the price they demand you pay,
Your road is waiting, so go your way.
(Bridge)
They'll say you're wrong, they'll say you're strange,
But dreams are born when we reach for change.
The rules they wrote, in fading ink,
Are meant to bend, when you dare to think.
(Chorus)
So chart your course, let the compass spin,
Where your true north lies, let the journey begin.
Hard on your heels may come the pack
But you've found your way and you won't look back.
(Outro)
Let the wheel turn, let your spirit soar,
Chart your course, and then ask for more.
More than they promised, more than you knew,
It all waits there on the road to you.
