Song Lyrics

I know the taste of my tears when they run down my face, yeah
Reminds me of all of the years and the dreams I've been chasin'
Fuelin' the fire inside so the fears, I can face 'em
'Cause mama never told me nothin' 'bout being complacent

So you can knock me down
But I won't stay on the ground

Can't stop believin' I'm the greatest
Hearts breaking 'til I know I made it
I'll never know what second place is
No pain, no doubt
'Til the lights go out

Just a little more
Makes it worth it all
When I hear the call
Will I rise or fall?
I know all my roads
Lead to something gold
So I'ma walk them all
I will walk them all

You can knock me down
But I won't stay on the ground

Can't stop believin' I'm the greatest
Hearts breaking 'til I know I made it
I'll never know what second place is (second place is)
No pain, no doubt
'Til the lights go out
'Til the lights go out
Yeah, yeah
(Yeah)

Some days it feels like I don't wanna go any farther
The only way I know to keep on is to keep pushin' harder

(can't) can't stop believin' I'm the greatest (I'm the greatest)
Hearts breaking 'til I know I made it
I'll never know what second place is
No pain, no doubt (no pain, no doubt)
'Til the lights go out
Can't stop believin' I'm the greatest
Hearts breaking 'til I know I made it ('til I know I made it)
I'll never know what second place is
No pain, no doubt (no doubt)
'Til the lights go out
