People say you gotta be fake
to make it to the top (to the top)
We're never gonna have what it takes,
So we might as well stop
(But we're not)
Cause I know, you know, I know
That if we plan on living
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Get real!
We want to really feel the feeling!
get Real!
Oh, we won't ever hit the ceiling
Get real!
Now we get to do the doin
Get up, get on, get over it
And get out of our way
It's time to get real

Everybody says that we dream bigger than we are
(And we are!)
We're too young to go we're they've gone
It's just too far (too hard)
I know, you know, I know
This time there's no pretending
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Get real!
We want to really feel the feeling!
get Real!
Oh, we won't ever hit the ceiling
Get real!
Now we get to do the doin
Get up, get on, get over it
And get out of our way
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

What else can we do
If we ever wanna prove
The life we live
It truly matters, truly matters, trulaaaay

(Instrumental)

Get real!
We want to really feel the feeling!
get Real!
Oh, we won't ever hit the ceiling
Get real!
Now we get to do the doin
Get up, get on, get over it
And get out of our way
It's time to get real
