can you lay your life down so a stranger can live
can you take what you need, but take less than you give
could you close every day without the glory and fame
could you hold you head high when no one knows your name
that's how legends are made - at least that's what they say

we say goodbye - but never let go
we live we die - cuz you can't save every soul
gotta take every chance to
show that you're the kinda of man who
will never look back - never look down
and never let go

can you lose everything you ever had planned 
can you sit down again and play another hand
could you risk everything for the chance of being alone
under pressure find the grace - or would [bad word] undone
that's how legends are made - at least that's what they say
