I wasn't the favourite
I wasn't the first one off the gun
Might have seemed I was chasing
But, me, I had my own race to run
Just kept my head down
No, never count me out
No, it ain't how you start
Ain't about how far you get in the beginning
Might have been slow out the gate
But that don't mean a thing if you're still in it
Might have ways to go
Might be down the road
But don't give up, no
It ain't how you start
Ain't about how far you get in the beginning
It's about how you finish
Ain't saying it's easy
I'm just saying even if you're trailing behind
You can take it from me, yeah
It don't matter until you cross the line
You got hope if you're still in the game
Going at your own pace
Slow and steady wins the race
No, it ain't how you start
Ain't about how far you get in the beginning
Might have been slow out the gate
But that don't mean a thing if you're still in it
Might have ways to go
Might be down the road
But don't give up, no
It ain't how you start
Ain't about how far you get in the beginning
It's about how you finish
It's about how you finish
It ain't how you start
Ain't about how far you get in the beginning
Might have been slow out the gate
But that don't mean a thing if you're still in it
Might have ways to go
Might be down the road
But don't give up, no
It ain't how you start
Ain't about how far you get in the beginning
It's about how you finish
It's about how you finish
It's about how you finish
