[Verse 1]
I know my parents loved me
Stand behind me come what may, mmm
I know now that I'm ready, yeah
For I finally heard them say

[Chorus]
It's a different world (Ooh, ooh)
Than where you come from
Yes, it is now, yeah

[Verse 2]
Here's our chance to make it, hey
And if we focus on our goal
You can dish it, we can take it, hey
Just remember that you've been told

[Chorus]
It's a different world (It's a different world)
It's a different world (It's a different world)
Yeah, than where you come from
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Than where you come from!
