Lyrics:
VERSE 1:
I set my eyes to the west, walkin' away from it all
Reachin' for what lies ahead, I got my eye on it
I see my sweat hit the ground
I put my foot in the block
This is the race of my life
And I can't wait for this shot
Pre-chorus:
'Cause I can feel the wind at my back
Chest is pumpin' like a heart attack
Feet are moving and my mind is locked
Pressin' on with everything I got
CHORUS:
I got my eye on it
I got my eye on it
I got my eye on it
Eye on it
VERSE 2:
I got a new passenger to help me navigate the way
So when my heart hits the floor I can recalibrate
I feel the deeper callin' me, all else is fadin' in the past
So let me run in the race that I know is built to last
Pre-CHORUS 2:
'Cause I can feel the wind at my back
Chest is pumpin' like a heart attack
Feet are moving and my mind is locked
Pressing on I gotta take my shot
CHORUS 2:
I got my eye on it
I got my eye on it
I got my eye on it
Eye on it
BRIDGE (no distinct lyrics except for):
Eye on it
OUTRO:
I got my (Eye on it)
I got my (Eye on it)
I got my eye on the prize, I got my (Eye on it)
I got my eye on the prize and I will not quit
And I will not quit
