[Verse 1] Tape on my wrists Name on the card Whole town chanting Like they made me from their yard I walked in swinging Living in that glow Every bell that rang Felt like one more “I told you so” [Chorus] But the streak don’t last forever Every wall finds a hammer one day I was king of this cracked old canvas Till I finally heard them count me lay I hit hard I hit the center Breath gone Staring up at the lights The streak don’t last forever But I’m still getting up to fight [Verse 2] Photos on the hallway Posters peeling at the side They said I was the sure thing Made my pride a place to hide I saw him standing Not impressed by what I’d done One slip One second And my history came undone [Chorus] ’Cause the streak don’t last forever Every mountain meets a storm I was walking like I couldn’t fall Till the mat felt strange and warm I heard one Two Three like thunder Echo shaking through my spine The streak don’t last forever But that loss is making mine [Bridge] Who am I If I’m not the guy They swear will never lose? Blood in my teeth Heart in my throat I got something left to prove (yeah) [Chorus] The streak don’t last forever But the fire doesn’t fade that fast You can write your favorite story I’ll just turn a different page from last I’ll walk back through that curtain With my scars like shining signs The streak don’t last forever But this fight is still all mine
