You gotta be your own hero
You gotta have something worth fighting for
Go out and find
You gotta find your own dream now
Oh, now
'Cause you only get one shot now, baby
You better make it hot now, baby
Give it what you got
You gotta be your own hero
(Gotta be your own hero)
Be your own hero
(Gotta be your own hero)
Be your own hero
Wishing on a rainbow at my feet
It's a lucky sign
Ain't nothing but the oil slick in the street
After the rain
But I, I feel
A rush of inspiration in my heart
It's real
Gonna ride this new sensation
Tonight I'm opening and starring
In my life
You gotta be your own hero
You gotta be your own hero
Innocence in white chiffon
You can't save it once it's gone
Still the beat goes on
As we watch our legends dying
Toy soldiers in a storm
Falling one by one
Drink a toast to Jimmy Dean
And the queen of Sigma Chi
You gotta be your own hero
(Gotta be your own hero)
Be your own hero
(Gotta be your own hero)
Be your own hero
Light a candle for the believers
Still reaching for the sky
(Reaching for the sky)
The future's in their eyes
You gotta be your own hero
(La
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la)
You gotta be your own hero
(La
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la)
You gotta be your own hero
(La)
Look into their eyes
(La, la, la)
You gotta be
(La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la)
You gotta be your own hero
(La)
Light a candle for the believers
(La, la, la)
You gotta be
(La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la)
You gotta be your own hero
(La, la, la, la)
You gotta be your own hero.
