Climb

valleys,
Barefoot,

Every

Every
mountain

Every

And

Verse 2]*
I
climb
mountain
where
air
come
scarce,

Hear
my
own
heart
breathing,

how
to
win
race.
From
rocky
top
I
see
city
light

That
time
I
know
say
I
no

my
grind.
[Bridge] Valley

River

And

pepper
But
I
stand

mud

foot,
Heaven

the
cry
of
my
heartbeat.
I
must
win!
I
go
conquer!
I
go
celebrate! [
