[Verse 1]
You throw one punch
They knock you down
That’s when you first meet the ground
You throw ten more
Knocked down again
The ground may have found a friend
You go two rounds
Then go two more
Really learn to love the floor
The more you lose
The more you learn
Choose, don’t refuse the burn
[Pre-Chorus]
And every scar is one you’ve earned
[Chorus]
Give me an inch don’t promise me a mile
Give me an ounce don’t sell me on a ton
Steady and slow may not be what’s in style but
That’s how you build it and own it when you’re done…
[Verse 2]
Defeated once?
That’s everyone
First time you jump the gun
Defeated twice
Now that’s a start
Third makes a bitter heart
Once you hit ten
You start to find
Winning’s a waste of time
You learn much more
Each time you lose
If you never tried at all then
[Pre-Chorus]
You’d be undefeated too…
[Chorus]
Give me an inch don’t promise me a mile
Give me an ounce don’t sell me on a ton
Steady and slow may not be what’s in style but
That’s how you build it and own it when you’re done…
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Give me an inch don’t promise me a mile
Give me an ounce don’t sell me on a ton
Steady and slow may not be what’s in style but
That’s how you build it and own it when you’re done…
