(Ooh), doo doo (ooh ooh), doo doo (ooh ooh), doo doo (ooh ooh)
Whoo!

[Background: multiple "Ooh" during "Everybody's [...]" till "[...] can believe it"]

Everybody's got their thing
Something different we all bring
Don't you let 'em clip your wings
You got it, you got it

We're on fire and we blaze
In extraordinary ways

We got it, we got it

You dream it, you can be it
If you can feel it (aha), you can believe it

'Cause I am, you are, we are
Exceptional (exceptional), yeah, exceptional (exceptional)

Yeah, I am, you are, we are
Exceptional (exceptional), yeah, exceptional (exceptional)

(Ooh.) Hey! (Ooh.) Hey! (Ooh.) Whoo! [echo effect: some quieter "Whoo!"]
