Lyrics
In the race of my life
Can’t get to the finish line
(Still I, still I, still I try)
Wonder why it’s such a fight
Then I come to realize
(That, that, that I)
Chorus
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing, I was getting it in
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing; I was getting it in, it in
All the time I was at my worse
Couldn’t win, just couldn’t come first
(Still I try)
When they thought I wasn’t good enough
Made me feel like I should give it up
(Still I, still I try)
Get my feet glued to the ground
Kept my head held high above
(High above)
Pulled my boot straps up and run
In my quest to be number one
(The champion)
Chorus
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing, I was getting it in
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing; I was getting it in, it in
I may have fell a thousand times
With my eyes on the finish line
(Still I try)
A few steps seems a thousand mile
But I never looked back, not one time
Like a horse with blinders on
I kept it moving, no distraction
Like a jockey on a mission
In the saddle trying to get it done
Chorus
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing, I was getting it in
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing; I was getting it in, it in
Tap ta da da
Sometimes, sometimes I wanna cry
Tap ta da da
But I keep it, but I keep it bottled up inside
Tap ta da da
Sometimes, sometimes I wanna cry
Tap ta da da
But I make, but I make like all is fine
Chorus
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing, I was getting it in
Tap ta da da
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing; I was getting it in, it in
Tap ta da da
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing; I was getting it in, it in
I wasn’t losing; I was learning to win, to win, to win
I wasn’t losing; I was getting it in, it in
In the race of my life
Can’t get to the finish line
(Still I, still I, still I try)
Wonder why it’s such a fight
Then I come to realize
I was learning to win
