i heard this song at work and really liked the sound. then i went home and looked up the lyrics as i always do. that's when i fell in love with it.
the 1st two lines seem to speak to a philosophy of living that i used to be much better at putting into practice. it's simply being fearless and the hardest principle to walk.
at the same time you have to stick to your principles as the next two lines say. don't be a sucker for something that's too good to be true. and don't make deals that compromise your ideals.
if you can figure out how to balance these, fearlessness and principles, let me know how. i'm open to suggestions.
the song continues
"...let's go and watch the sun rise. Let your heart run along to the rhythm of your song. Everything you want is what I got to give you. You just have to let yourself come with me now. Everything you want is what I got to give you. There's no time to hesitate, come with me now. Let's go and watch the sun rise over London bridge or the Golden Gate..."

That's cool. I heard the song and I like it too. I love when songs have meaningful lyrics.
Let ME know if you figure this out too!
I think it can be done, walking fearless through life without compromising your principals, but I think it comes through faith. For myself faith in a God that made me exactly who I am, He will not abandon me no matter what failure I make, & knowing that He will equip me to do the things I am called to do, is what lets me walk fearless through my own life. Now, fearless is not painless...
