I never gave up
I never gave in
I kept on running 'cause I knew I'd win
Because I was born for it
I was ready to go
Whatever blew up
Whatever caved in
Said I'm never gonna let it get under my skin
Because I just want you to
I just want you to know
That I've been riding the wave
But boy, I've paid my dues
Now, I'm here on the stage
Breaking the news
Oh young star, you're famous
You strut around shameless
We love you, don't hate us
'Cause you won't forget us
Young star, you're ageless
You're so loud, outrageous
We need you, don't hate us
(Hey, young star)
'Cause you won't forget us
You got nothing to lose
All to gain
& Nothing worth doing if it don't cause pain
Because I was born for it
I just want you to know
Whenever you fall
Whenever you cry
Remember that it's you & me until we die
Because I just want you to
I just want you to know
That I've been riding this wave
But man, I've paid my dues
Now, I'm here on the stage
Breaking the news
Oh young star, you're famous
You strut around shameless
We love you, don't hate us
'Cause you won't forget us
Young star, you're ageless
You're so loud, outrageous
We need you, don't hate us
'Cause you won't forget us
Hey, young star
You know you're famous
I wanna hear ya
Say it to me
I never gave up
I never gave in
Oh young star, you're famous
You strut around shameless
We love you, don't hate us
'Cause you won't forget us
Oh young star, you're famous
You strut around shameless
We love you, don't hate us
'Cause you won't forget us
Young star, you're ageless
You're so loud, outrageous
We need you, don't hate us
'Cause you won't forget us
