Finish Line Lyrics by Ally Salort
Raise a toast, tryna smile but I’m fightin’ it
Won the gold and it feels like I’m post-olympic
There’s a version of me that would die for this
Oh, why don’t I see that?
Spoiling all I have for the things I don’t
Would I be happier now if I hadn’t though?
So focused on the horizon, I missed the boat
Years I won’t get back
No, I shouldn’t cry because it fades away
I should be happy that it happened
That’s what they say
You’ll spend your life tryna be a winner
Then you’re winnin’, then you’re sad
Spend your time tryna paint a picture
Then you paint it and it’s bad
Wish that I could be more glad
To be exactly the person I am
Spend your life tryna be a winner
But the finish line keeps moving back
I come in second when that’s my first place
I keep talking to myself in the worst way
And when I blow out my candles on every birthday
I wish it, I wish it away
When I get it, I’m worried I’m gonna lose it
Don’t believe I’m deservin’ unless I prove it
Everything just depends on your point of view
That’s what they say
You’ll spend your life tryna be a winner
Then you’re winnin’, then you’re sad
Spend your time tryna paint a picture
Then you paint it and it’s bad
Wish that I could be more glad
To be exactly the person I am
Spend your life tryna be a winner
But the finish line keeps moving back
I just wanna wake up, wanna feel alright (Feel alright)
Do it ’cause I wanna, don’t need no prize (Oh, I)
I wanna see the pretty in a sunrise (Ah)
I just wanna wake up, wanna feel alright (Feel alright)
Do it ’cause I wanna, don’t need no prize (Oh)
I wanna see the pretty in a sunrise (Sunrise, in a sunrise)
You’ll spend your life tryna be a winner
Then you’re winnin’, then you’re sad
Spend your time tryna paint a picture
Then you paint it and it’s bad
Wish that I could be more glad
To be exactly the person I am
Spend your life tryna be a winner
But the finish line keeps moving back
