OneRepublic - Born to Race

Copied!

{Verse 1}
These days, these days
Get so hard to breathe
It's hard to move
Steep waves, steep waves
Crashing into me
I could swim in the blue

{Refrain}
When it comes to my philosophy
I've learned to take it all in my stride
When it comes to darker days
I'm born to race and man
I've been doing fine

{Pre-Chorus}
These days, these days
Get so hard to breathe
It's hard to move

{Chorus}
So I'm going faster
Faster than I ever been
I'm going faster
Faster than I ever been

{Verse 2}
Make up for time now
Since I was way back
I'm on a mission
And you're staring at the playback
You call me obsessed
I call you made up
You're trying to stop me honey
Please don't quit your day job

{Refrain}
When it comes to my philosophy
I've learned to take it all in my stride
When it comes to darker days
I'm born to race and man
I've been doing fine

{Pre-Chorus}
Sunlight is fading
No conversating
I'm about to pass on through

{Chorus}
I'm going faster
Faster than I ever been
I'm going faster
Faster than I ever been

{Bridge}
I'm going faster
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
Faster than I ever been
When you're born to race, yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah
I'm moving faster
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
Faster than I ever been
When you're born to race, yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah

{Refrain}
When it comes to my philosophy
I've learned to take it all in my stride
When it comes to darker days
I'm born to race and man
I've been doing fine

{Pre-Chorus}
Sunlight is fading
No conversating
I'm about to pass on through

{Bridge 2}
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah

{Chorus}
I'm going faster
Faster than I ever been
I'm going faster
Faster than I ever been

{Bridge}
I'm going faster
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
Faster than I ever been
When you're born to race, yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah
I'm moving faster
When you're born to race, yeah
When you're born to race, yeah
Faster than I ever been
When you're born to race, yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah

{Outro}
When you're born to race yeah
When you're born to race yeah
When you're born to race yeah
Nah nah nah nah nah
When you're born to race yeah
When you're born to race yeah
When you're born to race yeah

Biography

edit bio

OneRepublic is an American pop rock band, led by Ryan Tedder.

The band has released four studio albums, Dreaming Out Loud (2007), Waking Up (2009) and Native (2013), and Oh My My (2016). “Apologize” and “Counting Stars” are two of their most well-known singles, the former being their debut and the latter from the third album.

The band started with the name “Republic,” but then it was changed to “OneRepublic” or else it would be difficult to distinguish the group from other bands and other search items on search engines.

Before signing to Mosley Music Group under Interscope Records, the band was signed to Columbia Records. They were working on their debut album with “Sleep” as the lead single when Columbia Records dropped the group two months before the release.

The band then became the top unsigned act on MySpace and caught Timbaland’s attention. After the release of their debut album Dreaming Out Loud with the original version of “Apologize” as the lead single, the remix version by Timbaland released on his compilation album Shock Value became a massive hit nationally and globally.
