The Rainbooms performing Legend You Were Meant to Be EG4

"Come away with me, be the legend you were meant to be!"

[Twilight Sparkle]
I used to think that stories were just that
Set in stone, concrete as a fact
It didn't dawn on me
That I could change history
[Sunset Shimmer]
Now I know I'm writing my own song
Fight my way to the ending that I want
I'll turn a tragedy
[Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle]
Into an epic fantasy
[The Rainbooms]
Hey, hey, hey
You can be a hero (hero) too
Oh-oh-oh
Take my hand, I'm here for you
Come away with me
Be the legend you were meant to be
You'll always be Everfree
Oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah
To be the legend you were meant to be
Oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah
To be the legend you were meant to be
[Fluttershy]
There was a time when fear would hold me down
'Cause I let it chain me to the ground
[Rainbow Dash]
Look at me now, I'm soaring high
It's never boring in the sky
[Applejack]
When I know I've got friends on my side
Whatever trials, I'll take them all in stride
[Rarity]
Together we will shine so bright
A radiant brilliance in the night
[The Rainbooms]
Hey, hey, hey
You can be a hero (hero) too
Oh-oh-oh
Take my hand, I'm here for you
Come away with me
Be the legend you were meant to be
You'll always be Everfree
Oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah
To be the legend you were meant to be
Oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah, ah-oh, oo-wah
To be the legend you were meant to be!

[The Sonic Rainbooms]
I used to think that stories were just that.
Set in stone, concrete as a fact.
It didn't come to that I could change history.
Now I know I write my own,
Fight my way to the ending that I want.
I'll turn a tragedy to an epic fantasy!
Hey, hey, hey.
You can be a hero, too.
Take my hand; I'm here for you!
Come, come away with me.
Be the legend you were meant to be!
You are and always will be Everfree!
There was a time when fear held me down.
I let it chain me to the ground.
But now I'm soaring. Life is never boring!
I'm as awesome as I wanna be.
But I'm more than I believed.
Faster than lightning and more exciting,
We'll be a sight you can't miss,
Just trust in us 'cause we got this!
We're always sure to win.
If we harness the power that's within.
Come, come away with me.
Be the legend you were meant to be!
You are and always will be Everfree!
