push for the stride

how many times have you woken up, to find your coffee's cold and a broken cup, that's a hell of a way, to start your day, how many times have you looked to the date, to find a calendar full of empty pages, what a hell of a way, to see time flippin' away, like a barrel down the hill keeps rolling faster, and circumstances become your master, and you realize, your hands ain't on the wheel anymore, with the wind at your back and the sun at your side, take the bull by the horns and ride, you gotta push for the stride, it wins the race every time, so when you're low on steam, but your aim is high, you gotta keep your eye on the prize, you gotta push for of stride, it wins the race every time, for the stride, for the stride, have you found yourself falling in a vicious dream, and you wake yourself up with a nasty scream, waking up screaming, it's a hell of a way to get through the night, have you opened up your heart to a promise made, just to get it kicked back into yesterday, it's a hell of a way to lose all the ground that you gained, so when your spirits down and you mood is dark, let the dark horse come and take you 'round, and you realize you're back in the saddle again. with the wind at your back and the sun at your side, take the bull by the horns and ride, you gotta push for the stride, it wins the race every time, so when your low on steam, but your aim is high, you gotta keep your eye on the prize, you gotta push for the stride, it wins the race every time, for the stride, for the stride, for the stride, for the stride, with the wind at your back and the sun at your side, take the bull by the horns and ride, you gotta push for the stride, it wins the race every time, so when your low on steam, but your aim is high, you gotta keep your eye on the prize, you gotta push for the stride, it wins the race every time, gotta push for the stride, it wins the race every time, for the stride, for the stride
