When you take the lead, make sure you can maintain it, oh God, you need to go all the way around
I am a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
Sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so nobody try to test me
What if I can lead an old runner, come from the middle of the pack, or even make a move from the back
What if like a champion, I'm so bubbly on the track, I'm giving everything I've got
No make sense you jump up front, if you can't hold an off man coming from the back
And you're kicking up a storm, looking over your shoulders, the crowd is on the heel
You're running out of stamina, it start to reveal
You shouldn't test the champion, now you're eating dirt
I'm gonna show you up
I'm gonna show you up

For what you really want
What if the sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
What if the sprinter, stay a long distance runner, can't test me, no way, what if
When you take the lead, make sure you can maintain it
Oh gosh, don't be a hurly-gurly, Santa
What if the sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
Sometimes I lead, sometimes I run on, all the plans and all things are gone
Some get left in the gates, and you know them have to wait
If you win this race, you can't start too late
If you try anything, they look kind of funny
You know they'll have to have an inquiry
What if the sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
Why nobody try to test me

Why you go weep when them watch you replay
The champion and runner in a rub-up not play
If a battery you are using just can't work
Bad ride you are, bad ride it just can't work
Dope up you, dope up, that can't help you
Just surrender, I would advise you watch out
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
I can lead an old turner, come from the middle of the pack
Or even make a move from the back
Like a champion is, bubbling on the track
I'm giving everything I've got, watch out
I'm a sprinter, stay a long distance runner, so why nobody try to test me
So why no bother try test me I am a sprinter stay a long distance runner
So no bother try test me When you take the lead
Make sure you can maintain it Oh gosh, don't be like no early frontrunners
No, no, I'm going to run out of stamina Got to be a sprinter stay a long distance runner
We'll get Lord of Mercy
Why no bother try test me I am a sprinter stay a long distance runner
So why no bother try test me No way, you can't test me
No way, oh gosh, don't be like no early frontrunners
Lord of Mercy
Lord of Mercy
