[Verse 1]

I don't have the balance

Think I'm gonna fall

Wish I had the talent

I don't belong here at all

Drowning in the pressure

In above my head

Why did I think I could do this?

I could have walked away instead

[Pre-Chorus]

But this is my chance to break free

Everything's depending on me

And if I keep trying I'll be

[Chorus]

On top of the world

Where I can see everything before me

Reachin' out to touch the sky

On top of the world

All of my dreams are rushing toward me

Stretching out my wings to fly

On top of the world

On top of the world

Verse 2]

Nothing's gonna break me

Gonna get it right

Even if it takes me doing it a thousand times

Trying once is easy

Discipline is hard

But nothing can defeat me

If the change is in my heart

[Pre-Chorus]

This is my chance to break free (This is my chance)

Everything's depending on me (On me)

And if I keep trying I'll be (I'll be)

[Chorus]

On top of the world

Where I can see everything before me

Reachin' out to touch the sky

(I'm reaching out to touch the sky)

On top of the world (Oh-oh)

All of my dreams are rushing toward me

Stretching out my wings to fly

On top of the world

[Bridge]

Again, again

Without a doubt

Keep on moving

I can't give in now

I can feel it

Almost there (Oh)

You know I'm climbing up, up, up

[Chorus]

I'm on top of the world

Where I can see everything before me (I'm reaching out)

Reachin' out to touch the sky (I'm reaching out to touch the sky)

On top of the world (All of my dreams)

All of my dreams are rushing toward me

(All of my dreams are rushing toward me)

Stretching out my wings to fly

On top of the world (On top of the world)

Where I can see everything before me (I'm reaching out)

(On top of the world)

Reachin' out to touch the sky

(I'm reaching out to touch the sky)

(On top of the world)

On top of the world

(All of my dreams)

(On top of the world)

All of my dreams are rushing toward me

(All of my dreams are rushing toward me)

(On top of the world)

Stretching out my wings to fly

On top of the world

Jessica rolled her eyes with a smile.

"I see you're very much excited about it Ella", said Teresa.

"Indeed I am Teresa!", Ella replied. "I've always wanted to try out one of my few experiments on magical portions".

"Is that even legal in the academy?", Teresa asked.

"Anything is legal with magic", Ella replied.

They all head to the cafeteria, took their foods and sat at a round table to eat when they spotted Daphne and her crew passed by to claim someone else's table. The girls hurriedly carried their belongings to another table. Both Teresa and Daphne gazed at each other, with Daphne being able to avert her eyes quickly away from Teresa.

"Daphne is such a big bully and a joke. She can go to heck for all I care", said Ella.

"Ella!", Teresa called out to her softly. "Don't say that".

"It's true you know!", Ella replied.

Suddenly, announcement came while all were at the cafeteria...

The announcer forgot to turn off the mic when she made another statement saying; "Not as if the commoners have unique gifts of magical possession... What a funny way to intimidate them. Am a genius Carl.

"Uh! Ma'am", said Carl.

"What?", said the announcer angrily. "I don't have time for your incessive yammering Carl. What is it?".

"The mic's still on ma'am", Carl replied.

"Oh! Dear. Quickly turn it off", said the announcer.

The entire academy and teachers heard what had been said already by the announcer which broke most of the commers spirit.

"That's so rude to say", said Teresa. "They're people as well".

Daphne on the other side with her girls said; "it serves them right!".

All went to their various classes after the cafeteria launch as they talked about the announcement made earlier. Not all were happy about it.

After the period of classes we over, the teachers of every classes made an announcement to them, most especially the commoners that is, those who came via scholarship were encouraged not to give up hopes on their dreams and encouraged them to plan ahead for the upcoming royal academy prom.

During the encouraging speech, a commoner stood up to ask a question about the maltreatment from the academy to those who came in with scholarship. The teacher stated that, if a Royalty is chosen during the Royal upcoming prom be it princes, princess, kings or Queen, majesty or highnesses depending on their charisma could be kind enough to make changes to the rules.

"Just like the top prom legends!", said a random student which gave the rest commoners hope. Every commoners chanted the word "AIHANDRUI!!!..."

The next day, all activities held as usual, as almost every students preparing for the magical session tomorrow, Ella was very excited about it and couldn't wait for the day to come. Ella had already worked on some magical portions that needed perfection.

During their discussion with Teresa and her friends, some commoners and Royalty began sharing fliers about fundraiser to assist with the invitation of the "Acapella boyz" in the upcoming prom. Some fliers were giving to Teresa's friends. Looking at it, Jessica and Ella burst into screams.

"The what now?", said Teresa.

"OMG! Teresa, you must be joking right", said Ella. "The Acapella Boyz are the coolest with such pristine voices. Chase is the sweetest".
