Lyrics[]
Rachel:
I came to win,
To fight,
To conquer,
To thrive
I came to win,
To survive,
To prosper,
To rise
Rachel mit New Directions-Mädchen:
To fly...
To fly...
Santana:
Uh, yo, yo
Artie:
I used to think that I could not go on
Santana:
I wish today it would rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Artie:
And life was nothing but an awful song
Santana:
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become Neo when they aiming at me
Blaine (New Directions):
(If I can see it)
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
(Then I can do it)
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all smell blood
(If I just believe it)
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just surmising
(There's nothing to it)
Blaine und Santana:
I win, thrive, soar,
Higher, higher, higher
More fire
Rachel:
I came to win
Rachel mit Santana:
To fight,
To conquer,
To thrive
I came to win,
To survive,
To prosper,
To rise
Finn mit New Directions:
I believe I can (mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: fly...)
I believe I can touch the sky
I believe I can (mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: fly...)
I believe I can touch the sky
Artie:
See, I was on the verge of breakin' down
Santana:
Paint they own pictures, then they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Artie:
Sometimes, silence can seem so loud
Santana:
I am not a word,
I am not a line
I am not a girl
That can ever be defined
Blaine (New Directions):
(If I can see it)
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
(Then I can do it)
See we become alive in a time of fear
And I ain't got no motherfickle time to spare
(If I just believe it)
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
(There's nothing to it)
Blaine und Santana:
But when you go hard your nays become yays
Yankee Stadium with Jay's and Kanye's
Rachel:
I came to win
Rachel mit Santana:
To fight,
To conquer,
To thrive
I came to win,
To survive,
To prosper,
To rise
Finn mit New Directions (Mercedes):
I believe I can (mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: fly...) (Fly)
I believe I can touch the sky (Ooh, yeah)
I believe I can (mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: fly...)
I believe I can touch the sky (Fly)
Finn:
I believe I can fly (Mercedes: Fly)
Artie (Rachel mit New Directions-Mädchen):
(Get ready for it, get ready for it)
Then I can be it (Get ready for it, I came to win)
If I just believe it (Get ready for it)
There's nothing to it (Get ready for it)
(Mercedes mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: Get ready for it!)
Artie und New Directions-Jungs:
I believe I can (mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: fly...)
(Mercedes: Oh!)
Finn und New Directions (Mercedes):
I believe I can touch the sky (Fly!)
I think about it (Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: To fly...)
Every night and day (Oh)
Spread my wings and fly away (Ooh, whoa!)
Artie mit New Directions (New Directions):
(I can fly!) I believe I can soar (Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen: To fly...)
(Mercedes: Get ready for it!) (I can fly!)
I see me runnin' through that open door
(Mercedes: Get ready for it! Fly!) (I can fly!)
Finn mit New Directions (New Directions):
I believe I can (mit Rachel und New Directions-Mädchen fly...) (I can fly!)
(Mercedes: Get ready for it!)
Artie:
Whoo

I believe I can (Mercedes: Oohh!)
