Seven years ago, I was just a young lost soul With no place to go at all, oh Now I'm on the road With schedules of sold out shows But I still want more Who could have ever known The future is here inside my hands As I travel the unknown The risks are high, the odds are low But I am not alone The future is here inside my hands And I'm answering the call 'Cause I'd rather fail than never know at all All these scars and sores I've collected along the way But the pain is gone once I stand on stage I'm not running or hiding, not anymore 'Cause I know there's no way out of this now What I want is what I need Until then I believe The future is here inside my hands As I travel the unknown The risks are high, the odds are low But I am not alone The future is here inside my hands And I'm answering the call 'Cause I'd rather fail than never know at all There is just one thing That I need to say Without my friends I couldn't have got to where I'm standing And there is just one thing I never will forget Without you here I couldn't have become who I am (The future is here inside my hands) The future is here inside my hands As I travel the unknown The risks are high, the odds are low But I am not alone The future is here inside my hands And I'm answering this call 'Cause I'd rather fail than never know at all I would rather fail than never know at all (at all)
