The world is watching
My future on the line
The gold is mine

The best in the world
The title everyone is fighting for
Cameras flashing
Don’t get distracted

Everyone is watching
I push out of the start
Determination in my heart
No doubt in my mind

The finish line in sight
But the killer turn is still to come
The turn has been the eliminator for some
But not for me

Sitting in the finish arena
Flags waving
People screaming
I have accomplished the dream
The olympic dream
