Verse
Four forty-five, the sky's still black
Laces double-tied, ain't looking back
Cold air burning down into my chest
Every step's a war I fight and win
Streetlights fading one by one
Legs on fire but I ain't done
Horizon's cracking gold and gray
I can outrun the break of day
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it climbing in your veins
Every heartbeat breaking off the chains
Nothing's catching me, I'm gone, I'm gone
Watch me chase the edge of dawn
Chorus
I'm gonna beat me to the sun
Outrun the night before it's done
Feet on fire, heart wide open
Nothing's stopping, I'm not slowing
Gold's still rising, I'm already gone
I'm gonna beat me to the sun
Verse
Mile six now, the pavement's mine
Shadows stretching down the yellow line
They said slow down, said catch your breath
I said watch me race the sun to death
Sweat like diamonds on my skin
This is where the fight begins
Every ache is proof I'm still alive
Nothing's catching this, I'm gonna thrive
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it climbing in your veins
Every heartbeat breaking off the chains
Nothing's catching me, I'm gone, I'm gone
Watch me chase the edge of dawn
Chorus
I'm gonna beat me to the sun
Outrun the night before it's done
Feet on fire, heart wide open
Nothing's stopping, I'm not slowing
Gold's still rising, I'm already gone
I'm gonna beat me to the sun
Bridge
Somewhere out past the finish line
There's a version of me made of light and time
She don't wait, she don't look back
She's already running down the track
I can see her, I'm becoming her
Every mile, the world's a blur
Chorus
I'm gonna beat me to the sun
Outrun the night before it's done
Feet on fire, heart wide open
Nothing's stopping, I'm not slowing
Gold's still rising, I'm already gone
I'm gonna beat me to the sun
