It’s a race of fate
It’s a drunken rage
It’s anything you can think of
It’ll work by how you make it
It won’t be perfect
It doesn’t have second chances
It’s a one time trip
There is an afterward,
If you believe there is
It’s how your mind works
It’s how your heart works
Its constant competition
It’s how we talk
It’s how we think
It’s how we love
It’s what we do
Whether it’s right or wrong
Its life
And only one thing can stop it
