Lyrics

Seek the future, look at the past
Doesn’t matter if you come last
It’s the taking part that counts
Not the winning of large amounts

Get on the treadmill, train every day
Take no notice of what they say
They only want to be bringing you down
Flip their intentions upside down

It’s motivation
Not flagellation
Imagination
Your destination

It doesn’t matter which side you pick
Chase the carrot, forget the stick
You’re running headlong to a future that’s bright
Given the time, you can win this fight

Good things come to those who wait
Remove the ones who would denigrate
Treasure the fact you’re ahead of the curve
An action burns brighter than a word

It’s motivation
Not flagellation
Imagination
Your destination

See the horizon
See the goal
Take the baton and
Don’t let go
See the horizon
See the goal
Take the baton and
Don’t let go
See the horizon
See the goal
Take the baton and
Don’t let go
See the horizon
See the goal
Don’t let go

It’s motivation
Not flagellation
Imagination
Your destination

It’s motivation
Not flagellation
Imagination
Your destination
