(Intro) (Drum Break) (Verse) Sometimes I sit back and I ponder About the life I could've had It's really just a waste of time Because what's the point in that? I'm too busy in the past When my future's here and now Instead of staring at the dirt below I should be staring at the clouds (Bridge) Is it too late to build it up? Build up just what I could become Nothing really matters in the end Except the effort that you put in (Chorus) The only thing that matters is the work Sometimes to move forward, you just gotta let it hurt Gotta try and remember to focus on the prize Would I be fully satisfied with what's on the other side? The other side (Verse) Every now and then I sit back and think About the life that I left behind All my so-called friends and family That tried to pick apart my mind I'm just keeping my eyes looking forward Just keep my focus on the goal Money, attention and to look at them and scream "I told you so!" (Chorus) The only thing that matters is the work Sometimes to move forward, you just gotta let it hurt Gotta try and remember to focus on the prize Would I be fully satisfied with what's on the other side? The other side (Bridge) Is it too late to build it up? Build up just what I could become Nothing really matters in the end Except the effort that you put in Is it too late to build it up? Build up just what I could become Nothing really matters in the end Except the effort that you put in (Break) (Chorus) The only thing that matters is the work Sometimes to move forward, you just gotta let it hurt Gotta try and remember to focus on the prize Would I be fully satisfied with what's on the other side? The only thing that matters is the work (only thing that matters) Sometimes to move forward, you just gotta let it hurt (let it hurt) Gotta try and remember to focus on the prize (on the prize) Would I be fully satisfied with what's on the other side? The other side (Outro)
