i found the perfect song for all us underdogs who want to just break free of all this "underdog" stuff: Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson. i know most of you have probably heard it already, but i'll post the lyrics anyway:
Grew up in a small town, and when the rain would fall down,I'd just stare out my window.
Dreaming of what could be, and if I'd end up happy, I would pray.
Trying hard to reach out, but when I'd try to speak out, felt like no one could hear me.
Wanted to belong here, but something felt so wrong here, so I pray, I could Breakaway.
{chorus] I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly, I'll do what it takes til I touch the sky.
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change and Breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun, I won't forget all the ones that i loved.
I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and Breakaway.
Wanna feel the warm breeze, sleep under a palm tree, feel the rush of the ocean.
Get on board a fast train, travel on a jet plane, far away, and Breakaway.
CHORUS
Buiding with a hundred floors, swingin round revolving doors, maybe I dont know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep movin on, movin on
Fly away, Breakaway
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly, thought it's not easy to tell you goodbye
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change, and Breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun, I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk,take a chance, make a change, and Breakaway, Breakawy,Breakaway
