Here it goes
When I die, I wanna still be me
Scorned, torn and burning deep
A stubborn thorn in society
Scorned, torn, I’m burning
And if I died before I woke
I told the lord that’s my soul to take
Now I’m burning
If I’m gonna breathe
Get a grip feel my heart beat
All I need is speed (whoa oh whoa oh)
Fire burns inside of me
All I see and all I need is passing on the left of me
(Whoa oh oh whoa oh)
Whoa, now I’m burning in cold sweat. I can’t sleep
If I’m burning. My heart’s set. I need speed
Let’s face it we’re not breathing, can’t make a fool out of me
But you, my passenger, hold tight there’s glory on the left of me
Get a grip feel my heart beat
If I’m gonna breathe
Get a grip feel my heart beat
All I need is speed (whoa oh whoa oh)
Fire burns inside of me
All I see and all I need is passing on the left of me
(Whoa oh oh whoa oh)
Whoa, hear it go
And if I’m gonna breathe (whoa oh oh whoa oh oh)
All I need is speed (whoa oh oh oh)
Fire burns inside of me
All I see and all I need is passing on the left of me
(Whoa oh oh whoa oh)
My hearts set, I need speed
