YeahIf you try to fuck it up again
Destiny will choose you in the end
If you don't make the choice
And you don't use your voice
Someone else will speak for you instead
What you want is just within your reach
But you gotta practice what you preach
If you use sweat and tears
And overcome your fears
Never let the fire inside you leaveI can, Icon, two letters apart
One step, away, of being lost in the dark
Just shine your light like a beautiful star
Show the world who you are
Who you areYeah
There's another part of you no one sees
There's a burning fire that's underneath
Baby don't you know you were meant to be
Born to be
Meant to be
IconicTell me I'm no good and I'll be great
Say I have to fight and I can't wait
Standing in the wings
A butterfly that stings
I will rise above cause it's my fateI can, Icon, two letters apart
One step, away, of being lost in the dark
Just shine your light like a beautiful star
Show the world who you are
Who you areYeah
There's another part of you no one sees
There's a burning fire that's underneath
Baby don't you know you were meant to be
Born to be
Meant to be
IconicBorn to be a superstar
That's exactly what you are
Born to be a superstar
That's exactly what you areAlright
Firefly chain, wanna catch you
Wanna put you in a net for their light glow
Yellow brick high way, paparazzi pile-up on the high road
They just turned the sun into an idol
They just wanna see how high the sky go
Just to find how it feel to fall bad
Madonna said I remind her of Michael
Steady blowing up my head, blowing up my head
Put it on your wall
Put me in the school book, put me in the laws
Put me in a descant in the Synagogue
Firefly gold, wanna catch ya
Wanna catch you when your lights go dim
Wanna turn you to a letter in their logo
Wanna stick you in a jar with a pen
You're a iconI can, Icon, two letters apart
One step, away, of being lost in the dark
Just shine your light like a beautiful star
Show the world who you are
Who you areYeah
There's another part of you no one sees
There's a burning fire that's underneath
Baby don't you know you were meant to be
Born to be
Meant to be
Iconic, ironic
