Em
Every day I run a race
C                  G
Just trying to get ahead
Em
Don't think about where I am now
C                       G
Just where I want to be instead
Em
I'm losing so much precious time
C                             G
But will I be satisfied in the end
       Em       C  D 
Oh, in the end

[Chorus]
              Em
I don't wanna spend my life
C                             Cadd9
Trying to fight for what's not mine
Em
I don't wanna lose myself
C                 Cadd9
In someone else's dream
             Em
I know I was made with a purpose
C                 G
To reach past the surface
          Cadd9
Live life fearlessly
       Em      D
I want nothing less
           Em      D        Cadd9 Em    G    X2
Than to be who I'm meant to be

[Verse 2: Joey Stamper]
Em
Everyone is on their way
C                 G
But I am standing still
Em
Comparing my "Behind the Scenes"
C                       G
Against their highlight reel
Em
I'm burning so much energy
C                                G
Won't let it keep distracting me anymore
Em C     D
Anymore, oh

[Chorus 2]
             Em
I don't wanna spend my life
C                             Cadd9
Trying to fight for what's not mine
Em
I don't wanna lose myself
C                 Cadd9
In someone else's dream
             Em
I know I was made with a purpose
C                 G
To reach past the surface
          Cadd9
Live life fearlessly
       Em      D
I want nothing less
           Em      D        Cadd9
Than to be who I'm meant to be

[Bridge]
Em C
Oh  oh
Cadd9        Em    C
Nothing less than (oh)
Cadd9            Em  C
Who I'm meant to be (oh)
Cadd9             Em    C
Live life with purpose (oh)
Cadd9            Em     C
Reach past the surface (oh)
Cadd9                 Em C
It's who I'm meant to be

[Chorus 3]
              N.C.
I don't wanna spend my life
N.C.
Trying to fight for what's not mine
N.C.
I don't wanna lose myself
N.C.              Cadd9
In someone else's dream
Em
I know I was made with a purpose
C                 G
To reach past the surface
          Cadd9
Live life fearlessly
       Em      D
I want nothing less
       Em      D
I want nothing less
           Em      D        Cadd9 Em    G    x2
Than to be who I'm meant to be
