Need For Speed

I just want to get up and go
Go until I can't go anymore
Just put the pedal to the metal

Enough of sitting around here doing nothing
I'm always running behind
no matter what time I walk out the door
I fight the clock
until I drop into bed at night
and I know that I still didn't get done
what I wanted to
Let's pick up the pace I have many things to get done
before I can run myself into that early grave
that's waiting for me
I can't believe this is all
I have accomplished in my life
I should have done so much more
stop the hands of time and grab life with both hands
and run
keep running until
you have ran beyond the tightening of the muscles
and the burning lungs
just run
and don't ever let go
you just don't seem to know
that you hold something so precious in your hands
you are gripping at something
that many would give over
half of their success for
and that's
to truly live your life
