Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Final lap, I'm on top of the world
And I will never rest for second again
One more time, I have beaten them out
The scent of gasoline announces the end
[Pre-Chorus]
They all said I'd best give it up
What a fool, to believe their lies!
Now they've fallen, I'm at The Top
Are you ready now to die?
[Chorus]
I came up from the bottom
And in to The Top
For the first time I feel alive
I can fly like an eagle
And strike like a hawk
Do you think you can survive?
I came up from the bottom
And in to The Top
For the first time I feel alive
I can fly like an eagle
And strike like a hawk
Do you think you can survive?
The Top?
[Verse 2]
One more turn and I'll settle the score
A rubber fire screams in to the night
Crash and burn is what you're gonna do
I am the master of the asphalt fight
[Spoken - After Second Chorus]
What were you thinking telling me to change my game?
This style wasn't going anywhere
It was kaput!
You want to see what I've done with this place?
This whole thing?
You want to see that I changed the game?
No, I am the game!
Before I knew where this was going, I would've listened to you
Right now, I distance myself from what you have to say!
I made this something way bigger than you're ever gonna be
I made it this far
And I'm taking it to The Top
