As I walk through this broken land
See the tears of a river
Hear the mountain cry
In the sky way bleak, black night
From the cries just down a lightning strike

Oh, running all my life
Oh, still running tonight

It's an uphill battle
Running every day of my life
It's an uphill battle
I'm running
I'm still running
Running up that hill

Every day I up off the floor
And I keep on coming back for more and more
No matter how hard that kick in the face
I keep on coming there's no disgrace

Oh, running all my life
Oh, hear the riverwind cry

It's an uphill battle
Running every day of my life
It's an uphill battle
I'm running
I'm running
Running up that hill
