3 Years Better

Lasted 3 miles longer…

Gotten 3 tons stronger…

Feelin 3 watts brighter…

So I speak, 3 pitches louder…

 

Lasted 3 miles LONGER

Made me 3 tons STRONGER

Feel 3 watts BRIGHTER

Speak 3 pitches LOUDER

3 years I’m proud of

Made me 3 years BETTER

 

3 years longer

3 years stronger

3 years brighter

3 years louder

3 years BETTER

3 years BETTER

I’m 3 years better…

 

For every red ribbon I tie

For every hidden tear I cry

For every heart I touch

For every heart that touches me

For every scary drip of blood I bleed

For every school once forced to leave

For each and every pill

For the will I hope to instill

For each friend I can tell my past

For these friends I raise a glass

 

3 years running still

3 years running but not alone

Cross many lanes, that all take me home

 

Lasted 3 miles LONGER

Made me 3 tons STRONGER

Feel 3 watts BRIGHTER

Speak 3 pitches LOUDER

3 years I’m proud of

Made me 3 years BETTER

Lasted 3 miles LONGER

Made me 3 tons STRONGER

Feel 3 watts BRIGHTER

Speak 3 pitches LOUDER

3 years I’m proud of

Made me 3 years BETTER

 

3 years longer

3 years stronger

3 years brighter

3 years louder

3 years BETTER

3 years BETTER

I’m 3 years better…

 

3 years that I’ve loved the most

Sure beats 8 years and an overdose

Half a year to diagnose

But for 14 years I’ve kept my mouth closed

10 years to make a wish

11 years to take a risk

1 year with time to kill

15 years, I’m standing still

 

Now that me and life made up

Time to show this world what I’m made of

A lifetime to spread the word

Everyday a voice is heard

Every 9 minutes someone joins the fight

So every second we must spread the light

Every piece of knowledge enhances a life

 

Lasted 3 miles LONGER

Made me 3 tons STRONGER

Feel 3 watts BRIGHTER

Speak 3 pitches LOUDER

3 years I’m proud of

Made me 3 years BETTER

Lasted 3 miles LONGER

Made me 3 tons STRONGER

Feel 3 watts BRIGHTER

Speak 3 pitches LOUDER

3 years I’m proud of

Made me 3 years BETTER

 

3 years longer

3 years stronger

3 years brighter

3 years louder

3 years BETTER

3 years BETTER

I’m 3 years better…

 

Lasted 3 miles longer…

Gotten 3 tons stronger…

Feelin 3 watts brighter…

So I speak, 3 pitches louder…

I’m 3 years better…
