The Race
[Verse 1]
I grew up watchin’ legends,
Chasin’ glory ‘round that track,
Dreamed of Indy thunder,
But I never had the knack.
No shiny car in my driveway,
Just a rusty Chevrolet,
Every time I hit the road,
I felt a dream awake.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I’ll never stand in victory lane,
But I’ve got stories miles can explain.
[Chorus]
It ain’t about the checkered flag,
Or the crowd that calls your name,
It’s the wind against your window,
And the heart behind the flame.
I may never cross that finish line
Or add a trophy to my case,
But I’m alive behind the wheel—
It’s not about the win my friend,
It’s all about the race.
[Verse 2]
Some folks chase the spotlight,
Some folks run from doubt,
Me, I’m just out here drivin’,
Tryin’ to figure myself out.
I’ve spun out in the gravel,
I’ve been lost and I’ve been found,
But every lap I’m takin’
Keeps me 6 above the ground.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I’ll never get the winner’s prize
But I’ve learned to love the ride, and that makes me wise .
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Here’s to every dreamer
With their foot pressed on the gas,
Life’s not about the winners—
It’s about the ride that lasts.
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Yeah, I’m alive behind the wheel—
It’s all about the race.
[Tag]
So, keep on goin’
Keep on drivin’
Keep on runnin’It’s all about the race
