Something's got me working day and night

Something tells me winning won't be easy

This time

I gotta fight

Beauty's always been a friend to me

But I know she won't stay forever

But that's alright

Keeping my heart above water

Starting to feel that I'm stronger

Chorus:

I gotta run for my life

It's a marathon for my life

Take a chance, forget the competition

Dancin' till I drop

It goes on and on. I can't stop

It's a marathon to the top

Nothing comes from waiting and a wishing

So I keep running

Running for my life

My lover gives me hope when he is near

But only I can make the future

Better

Facing my fears

Moving fast so I can't be shot down

They'll never hit a dancing target

Now I can see it clear

Keeping my heart above water

Starting to feel that I'm stronger

Repeat Chorus

I got my eye on the track

I got my hands in the dirt

I know there's no turning back

I'm gonna push 'til it hurts

I know that my desire

Will take me to the wire

It's not a game I'm playing

I am here to WIN

Repeat Chorus

Running for my life

I got my eye on the track

I know there's no turning back

I'm gonna push push 'til it hurts

I'm gonna push push 'til it hurts
