MOMENT IN THE SUN
I see a someone who is brave
You don't wait to be saved
You got the brains, you got the drive
Oh what a time to be alive
You don't need someone to set you free
Look out, here comes my destiny
Time to be who we were meant to be
Relax and have a little fun

I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun

Now all of this ain't just a phase
We show our strength in different ways
Now this is real, it ain't no lie
We gotta live before we die
You don't need someone to set you free
Look out, here comes destiny
Time to be who we were meant to be
Relax and have a little fun

I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun

I'm so tired of being told
What to wear, what to say and how to say it
I'm so tired that I'm not heard
what I do, what I say and how I say it
I'm so tired of being told
What to wear, what to say and how to say it
I'm so tired that I'm not heard
what I do, what I say and how I say it
Is that so hard (is that so hard)…. to understand

I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun….
