[Verse 1: AJ]
I've seen it all a thousand times
Falling down, I'm still alive
Am I? Am I?
So hard to breathe when the water's high
No need to swim, I'll learn to fly
So high, so high

[Pre-Chorus: AJ]
You find the truth in a child's eyes
When the only limit is the sky
Living proof, I see myself in you

[Chorus: All]
When walls start to close in
Your heart is frozen over
Just show 'em what you're made of
When sunlight is fading
The world will be waiting for ya
Just show 'em what you're made of

[Verse 2: Kevin]
Gloves are off, ready to fight
Like a lion, I will survive
Will I? Will I?
Gotta stand for something
Even if you stand alone
Don't be afraid, it's gonna be alright

[Pre-Chorus: Nick & AJ]
You find the truth in a child's eyes
When the only limit is the sky
Living proof, I see myself in you (whoa-oh!)

[Chorus: All]
When walls start to close in
Your heart is frozen over
Just show 'em what you're made of
When sunlight is fading
The world will be waiting for ya
Just show 'em what you're made of

[Interlude: All]
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Just show 'em what you're made of
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Just show 'em what you're made of

[Bridge: Howie]
You find the truth in a child's eyes
When the only limit is the sky
Living proof, I see myself in you

[Chorus: All & Brian]
When walls start to close in
Your heart is frozen over
Just show 'em what you're made of
(You can show 'em what you're made of)
When sunlight is fading (oh-oh-oh)
The world will be waiting for ya
(For you, for you)
Just show 'em what you're made of
(You can show 'em what you're made of)

[Outro: All]
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Just show 'em what you're made of
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Just show 'em what you're made of

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
