[Verse 1]
To be the best of the rest, the rest of
As you test the enemy
Pressed against the ball that scrapes you
Hoping that you just shake the prey
[Pre-Chorus]
Closer, getting closer
Getting closer
[Chorus 1]
Across the line first
And past the edge
Across the line first
Split-second ahead
[Verse 2]
(Hey!)
Putting out the flames
Seeing through the smoke
Filling up my lungs
Making me choke
Staying in line
Until the best time
Taking what is mine, I'm taking what is mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Closer, getting closer
Getting closer
[Chorus 2]
Across the line first
And past the edge
Across the line first
Split-second ahead
[Bridge]
Going 'til I reach the end
Ooh, don't live much faster than them
When is this going to end?
Ooh, feeling the breath of the wind
Going 'til I reach the end
Going much faster than them
When is this going to end?
Across the line first
[Chorus 3]
And past the edge
Across the line first
Split-second ahead
