I laugh as two boys carry me to the stage.  My dress billows when they place me on stage next to Ben.

Ben and Brielle:

Kings and Queens, it's our time to rise
Write the book story of our lives,
This is us taking back the night.

Everyone:

Ohay, Ohay

Mal:

Break the spell,
We were born this way
Be yourself, forget the DNA,
Everybody raise your hands and say
Ohay, Ohay

Everyone:

Sound the alarm, get on your feet

Let's set it off and rock this beat

Dance till your heart is wild and free
Ooh, Oh, Oh
Feeling the power, let it all out,
Like what you see in the mirror, shout
We got the keys, the kingdom's ours
Ooh, Oh, Oh,
Ohay, Ohay

Carlos and Jay:

Yo, it's time to set this thing off
Let's make it happen now
I'll make my own future, ignore the rumors
Show 'em my passion sound
They all told me to back down
Show 'em my passion sound
Judgin' me 'cause of my background
Nah, I ain't goin' out like that now

Everyone:

Feeling the power, let it all out
Like what you see in the mirror, shout
We got the keys, the kingdom's ours

Audrey pulls Jay into the dance floor, only to leave him there, confused.  I rush over and grab his arm, pulling him into the center of the dance floor, while Audrey looks around for him.

Everyone:

Oh yeah, let's set this off

I make my way to the top of the school with Ben and Mal.

I lean over the railing as everyone bows to me and Ben.  We grin and I wave madly, racing downstairs to join them.  I slide up to Jay and he grabs my arm, spinning me around.  I tip my head back and laugh, and dance the night away.  I just live in the moment and stay happy.
