Intro
Oh-eh-oh-eh, eh-oh-eh
Oh-eh-oh-eh, eh-oh-eh
Refrain
You knew from the day you were born
That here in this place you belong
You’ve been this brave all along
What broke you once made you strong
Dai, dai, ikou, dale, allez, let’s go
Dai, dai, ikou, dale, allez, let’s go
Verse 1
Come follow your desire
Where there’s a will, there’s a way
You are the owner of that fire
No one can take it away
Sweat and blood to write your story
That is how you paved the way
You’re about to reach the glory
Only one step away
Pre-Chorus
All the highs and lows
All the tears and the pain
You’ve been there through it all, been through it all
Just do it again
Now you got to believe, I believe
’Cause you know what it takes
To be living my dream
At the top of your game
Chorus
Feel it, got everything you needed
Now bring it like you mean it
Just like you mean it
Dale, no olvide’ lo que vales
Juega como tú sabes
Como tú sabe’
Verse 2
Energy is contagious, you know
And it never fails, no, no
No one’s getting tired, I know
’Cause you got that fire, ayo
Dream a little higher, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go

Ayo
Ayo
Verse 3
We’ve taken all that our hearts can hold
We can’t hold on to the past no more
From the dirt and the tears, we make gold
We are more than flesh and bones
Pre-Chorus
All the highs and lows
All the tears and the pain
You’ve been there through it all, been through it all
Just do it again
Now you got to believe, I believe
’Cause you know what it takes
To be living my dream
At the top of your game
Chorus
Feel it, got everything you needed
Now bring it like you mean it
Just like you mean it

Juega como tú sabes
Como tú sabe’
