[Verse 1] Every choice has a price to pay Every shortcut has a hidden weight I used to take whatever felt right Just to find myself lost by midnight Got a list running through my mind What I gain, what I leave behind Just because it comes easily Doesn't mean it's what's best for me [Pre-Chorus] One side says, "Take the ride" Other says, "Look what’s inside" I don't need the quickest way I need something that's gonna stay [Chorus] Let the pros lead, let the cons fall I don't have to chase it all Weigh it up, then I decide Let the easy cons go bye-bye Oh-oh, I know what I need Not every easy road sets me free If it's worth it, I'll take my time Let the pros lead, leave the cons behind [Post-Chorus] Bye-bye, bye-bye Easy cons, you don't run my life High-high, head held high Let the pros lead every time [Verse 2] Temptation's got a pretty face Makes a promise it can't replace All the things that I really want With a little thrill that won't last long I've been learning to read the signs Not every yes is a finish line Some things shine till you look beneath Some things take work but bring you peace [Pre-Chorus] One side says, "Don't think twice" Other says, "Is it worth the price?" I don't need the quickest way I need something that's gonna stay [Chorus] Let the pros lead, let the cons fall I don't have to chase it all Weigh it up, then I decide Let the easy cons go bye-bye Oh-oh, I know what I need Not every easy road sets me free If it's worth it, I'll take my time Let the pros lead, leave the cons behind [Bridge] Easy doesn't mean it's right Hard doesn't mean it's wrong Sometimes what takes the most from me Makes me twice as strong I can bend without breaking I can wait without wasting Every choice is mine to make And I know which road I'll take [Final Chorus] Let the pros lead, let the cons fall I don't have to chase it all Weigh it up, then I decide Let the easy cons go bye-bye Oh-oh, I'm choosing me Building up the life I wanna lead If it's worth it, I'll take my time Let the pros lead, leave the cons behind [Outro] Bye-bye, bye-bye Easy cons, you don't run my life No rush, no wasted time The best way isn't always the easy line Let the pros lead... Let the pros lead... I'll be just fine. [End]
