Lyrics From YouTube
[Verse 1]
Just a young boy at the starting line
With his tunes on and his shoes untied
With a chip on his shoulder side
From what he tripped on the last time
He's Buzz Lightyear with no hyperdrive
He's like Mike here with no Nike Flight
And he'll fall down with his shoes untied
And he'll trip onto the finish line
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll try to write this song
If he gets there
And I want to write this song
[Chorus]
I'd like to be the one who is on the podium
Take a photo for my mom
And show her that I've made it
I'd like to be the one who could write the perfect song
Just to show you that I've won
But I'll have to tie my laces
If I'm gonna make it
[Verse 2]
In that moment when they hit the lights
It looked golden, but it didn't feel right
He was frozen with the worst frostbite
Was he chosen like an Israelite?
Picked the quotient that you can't divide
Like two oceans, stranded on the other side
His devotions on the other side
His emotions on the other side
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll try to write this song
If he gets there
And I want to write this song
[Chorus]
I'd like to be the one who is on the podium
Take a photo for my mom
And show her that I've made it
I'd like to be the one who could write the perfect song
Just to show you that I've won
But I'll have to tie my laces
If I'm gonna make it
[Bridge]
And then I'll end this song in 2051
And sing it for my son
And then I'll tie his laces
Just a young boy at the starting line, line, line, line
[Chorus]
I'd like to be the one who is on the podium
Take a photo for my mom
And show her that I've made it
I'd like to be the one who could write the perfect song
Just to show you that I've won
But I'll have to tie my laces
If I'm gonna make it
[Outro]
Just a young boy at the starting line
