SOMETIMES LIFE GETS TOUGH

 

(Appears in: First Movement)

 

You keep on striving for

The top spot, the pole position

You fight until all hope seems gone

To make you come out number one

Did you plan on it so rough?

 

CHORUS:

Sometimes life gets tough

You think it'll be simple

But it takes you by surprise

Be prepared for anything

Even when you think there's nothing

Never know what fate will bring

'Cause baby... life gets tough!

 

Driving hard, the pressure's on

Times get tighter every second

The finish line's around the bend

Don't surrender before the end

Learning fast the race is rough

 

CHORUS

 

You see the light at the end

Of the long tunnel up there

Seems like nothing can stop you

Then the enemy comes in view

It's about to get real rough

 

CHORUS

 

Fight for it!

(Go for it!)

Don't give in!

(Don't let them win!)

 

Don't lose the upper hand

Return it with all you got

Put the pedal to the metal

And when the dust is settled

Show them all you're not so rough

 

Sometimes life gets tough...

(... it's up to you to say enough is enough!)
