I've been anxiously training,
I am young and strong and ready to go.
I've heard the gun and the race is on now,
I didn't get here just to show.

I keep running, give it everything I can.
I keep running, never looking back again.
Endure the aching deep within,
I'll keep running hard to win.

Started out in an ocean,
A sea of runners at my side.
Now they're falling back one by one,
And I'm never going to be denied.

I keep running, give it everything I can.
I keep running, never looking back again.
Endure the aching deep within,
I'll keep running hard to win.

Now's the time when I pray for my second wind.
I've got to find that desire inside again.

The heat is on, it's not over,
I can see the battles waving from here.
I can't let anything hold me back now,
Seeing that the end is near.

I keep running, give it everything I can.
I keep running, never looking back again.
I keep running, give it everything I can.
I keep running, never looking back again.
