Lyrics[]
Sempre achei que a vida era fácil de entender
Que as mesmas coisas sempre acontecem com você
Mas ela nos surpreende com algumas de suas decisões
Testando sua paciência e sua inspiração
Sei que não é fácil acreditar
Buscando forças sempre no mesmo lugar
Seu corpo parece até que vai explodir
Mas o coração lhe diz que você vai conseguir
Eu vou, eu vou ser feliz
Do jeito que eu era, do jeito que eu sempre quis
E eu serei, eu serei assim
Mais forte do que pareço ser, para ser sempre feliz
Sempre achei que a vida era fácil de entender
Que as mesmas coisas sempre acontecem com você
Mas ela nos surpreende com algumas de suas decisões
Testando sua paciência e sua inspiração
Sei que não é fácil acreditar
Buscando forças sempre no mesmo lugar
Seu corpo parece até que vai explodir
Mas o coração lhe diz que você vai conseguir
Eu vou, eu vou ser feliz
Do jeito que eu era, do jeito que eu sempre quis
E eu serei, eu serei assim
Mais forte do que pareço ser, para ser sempre feliz
Depois que tudo acabou, começa de novo
As coisas que você pensou e ainda não fez
Agora com mais determinação e vontade de viver
O que a vida quer que você faça por si mesmo
Eu serei, eu serei feliz
Do jeito que eu era, do jeito que eu sempre quis
E eu serei, eu serei assim
Mais forte do que pareço ser, para ser sempre feliz x3
