No prizes call, the contest is my opium
Since you can never be sure
When they're keeping the score
You must always be ready to run
I tense myself
Waiting for the starting gun
No time for fun
Because
I work all day and I think all night
I break my body but that's alright
Cause it'll take my mind and all my might
To keep one step ahead of you
I think to myself living is a winning school
Winning on your feet, winning on the street
Winning as a golden rule
It's seems there's always a test
And I'm doing my best
But there still seems a long way to go
I try myself
Trying everything I know
Pushing me so
So
[Chorus:]
Don't wanna know why
Don't wanna know how or when or who
One step ahead
One more step ahead just to get me through
I try my best
Here comes another test
So wicked, no rest
Because
(Chorus 2x)
I catch my breath and ready for the race to come No prizes call, the contest is my opium Since you can never be sure When they're keeping the score You must always be ready to run I tense myself Waiting for the starting gun No time for fun Because I work all day and I think all night I break my body but that's alright Cause it'll take my mind and all my might To keep one step ahead of you I think to myself living is a winning school Winning on your feet, winning on the street Winning as a golden rule It's seems there's always a test And I'm doing my best But there still seems a long way to go I try myself Trying everything I know Pushing me so So [Chorus:] Don't wanna know why Don't wanna know how or when or who One step ahead One more step ahead just to get me through I try my best Here comes another test So wicked, no rest Because (Chorus 2x) Explain Request ×
