Take time, get out of line
Don't get so complicated
Don't fall on superstition
Or blame that malnutrition
Just make your heart like a hatchet to crack the competition

This life is mine for the taking
I'ma ride it until the day I die
This life is mine for the taking
And I'ma ride it, ride it, ride it

That's why I gotta keep climbing
'Cause life is just what you make it
So keep on riding and riding until you make it there

Never faded, I got this old blood
Pumping through my veins
Never faded, I got this old blood

This life is mine for the taking
I'ma ride it hard 'til the day I die
This life is mine for the taking
I'ma ride it, until the day I die
This life is mine for the taking
And I'ma ride it, ride it, ride it

That's why I gotta keep climbing
'Cause life is just what you make it
So keep on riding and riding until you make it there
'Cause life is just what you make it
So keep on riding and riding until you make it yours
