Lyrics
Be Brave
Music and Lyrics by John Neil Martin and Lynda Dobbin-Turner
V1
You hold your breath
Not ready yet
I think you're wondering if today's the day
You don't think you're strong
I know you're wrong
I've been watching you each step of the way
You're not the stories in your head
You're not what other people said
Today's not the day for thinking small
You can have it all
Chorus
Be brave
Be brave
Even when you feel afraid
Be brave
Be brave
Be brave
Be brave
Don't let fear stand in your way
Be brave
Be brave
V2
I know you're scared
We've all been there
We all have something special we can share
You must believe
You steer the dream
To be seen you've got to take the dare
You're not the old mistakes you made
You're not that child losing the game
It's time to leave that all behind
It's your time to shine
Chorus
Be brave
Be brave
Even when you feel afraid
Be brave
Be brave
Be brave
Be brave
Don't let fear get in your way
Be brave
Be brave
Bridge
We all have something special
We all share a dream
Let your voice be heard
Let yourself be seen
Don't play it small
You can have it all
Go be brave
Don't be afraid
Just go be brave
Go be brave
Sub Chorus
Be brave
Even when you feel afraid
Be brave
Don't let fear stand in your way
Chorus
Be brave
Be brave
Even when you feel afraid
Be brave
Be brave
Be brave
Be brave
Don't let fear stand in your way
Be brave
Be brave
