The Competition
When emotions are at their greatest high
And every drum beats with tremendous pride
Their eyes shine brighter than every star in the sky
As we retreat off the field as fast as the tide
Still up on my adrenaline rush
I feel the bronze heat
I see the crowd gush
It feels as though we can't be beat
High in the stands, muscles sore
We hear the cheers
We’ve settled the score
I feel the glory in my peers
This is who I'm meant to be
Determination is what fuels me
And every drum beats with tremendous pride
Their eyes shine brighter than every star in the sky
As we retreat off the field as fast as the tide
Still up on my adrenaline rush
I feel the bronze heat
I see the crowd gush
It feels as though we can't be beat
High in the stands, muscles sore
We hear the cheers
We’ve settled the score
I feel the glory in my peers
This is who I'm meant to be
Determination is what fuels me
