Run It to the Top (version 2)

Verse

Floodlights humming on the empty track

Chalk dust rising off my hands

Last rep echoing, I won't hold back

Building fire out of grit and sand

Heartbeat drumming like a starting gun

Counting down from ten to none

Every step tonight, I'm becoming someone

Nothing's stopping me before I'm done

Pre-Chorus

So how high can this climb go

Before my legs give out

Watch me turn the burn to fuel

And drown the finish out

Chorus

I run it to the top, I run it to the top

Lungs on fire but I never stop

Every mile is a mountain I won't drop

I run it to the top, to the top

Verse

City skyline blurring past my window

Pavement pounding underneath my feet

Neon signs like sparks I'm chasing into

Every heartbeat matching up the beat

Sweat like rain against the morning gray

Nothing left to leave behind

I'm not running just to run away

I'm running till I own the finish line

Pre-Chorus

So how high can this climb go

Before my legs give out

Watch me turn the burn to fuel

And drown the finish out

Chorus

I run it to the top, I run it to the top

Lungs on fire but I never stop

Every mile is a mountain I won't drop

I run it to the top, to the top

Bridge

They said slow down, said catch your breath

I said not yet, not yet

Every scar's a mile I've kept

Every step's a bet I won't forget

This one's for the ones still climbing

Still reaching when the light gets thin

This one's for the ones still fighting

When the top feels far as it's ever been

Chorus

I run it to the top, I run it to the top

Lungs on fire but I never stop

Every mile is a mountain I won't drop

I run it to the top, to the top
