Taking chances on those broken branches You can play it safe or play to win Life's a gamble, time to pull that handle As we throw all caution to the wind They say it's better to have loved and lost So let the games begin I'm ready to move that mountain Dodge anything in my way A day older but I'm not countin' I'm rising above the fray I'm living my life out loud I'm flying above the crowd This time I'm breaking this chain I'm living my life against the grain Friends I know bow to the status quo They're marching in a row afraid to complain I won't conform I fly above the storm And there's hell to pay, I'm taking the blame And like the rebels from a different age Freedom is calling my name I'm ready to move that mountain Dodge anything in my way A day older but I'm not countin' I'm rising above the fray I'm living my life out loud I'm flying above the crowd This time I'm breaking this chain I'm living my life against the grain Like the rain in a raging fire A song bird on a sparking wire Singing stoned in a midnight choir Going against the grain I'm ready to move that mountain Dodge anything in my way A day older but I'm not countin' I'm rising above the fray I'm living my life out loud I'm flying above the crowd This time I'm breaking this chain I'm living my life against the grain I'm ready to move that mountain Dodge anything in my way A day older but I'm not countin' I'm rising above the fray I'm living my life out loud I'm flying above the crowd This time I'm breaking this chain I'm living my life against the grain
