Words by neil peart music by geddy lee and alex lifeson

Its not how fast you can go

The force goes into the flow

If you pick up the beat

You can forget about the heat

More than just survival

More than just a flash

More than just a dotted line

More than just a dash

Its a test of ultimate will

The heartbreak climb uphill

Got to pick up the pace

If you want to stay in the race

More than just blind ambition

More than just simple greed

More than just a finish line

Must feed this burning need --

In the long run

From first to last

The peak is never passed

Something always fires the light

That gets in your eyes

One moments high

And glory rolls on by

Like a streak of lightning

That flashes and fades

In the summer sky

Your meters may overload

You can rest at the side of the road

You can miss a stride

But nobody gets a free ride

More than high performance

More than just a spark

More than just the bottom line

Or a lucky shot in the dark --

In the long run

You can do a lot in a lifetime

If you dont burn out too fast

You can make the most of the distance

First you need endurance --

First youve got to last
