Prepare in urgency to race
Casting off the weight that burdens me
I cannot dare to force the pace

Marathon for life the road I face

Committed

determined
My gaze is set on finishing


I'm straining to extend my lead
With every evil chasing me
One day, one hour, every step


I know
I know

I fix
my eyes
Ahead


Straining on to run without remorse
Casting off mistakes that came before

In my mind I see a hallowed door
Open arm embrace, I'm reaching for...


Just like a breeze is passing me
My stammers, a distant memory
We cannot afford a glance to see

What's gaining or what is history
