h-h-hold on. lemme try that again.

e-e-eyes on the prize and i am feeling great
i’m eating all the flies but still i’m thinking straight
lightning strikes the ground and i’ll turn around twice
don’t fall down until i roll the dice

seventeen days wanna say what that means to me
i’ve got a lot of things to come clean on what it means to be
a human in the back can’t relax always seems to be
alive i’m alive i’m alive can’t you simply see

eyes on the prize and i am feeling g-g-great
thirty more years then i will find my fate
ashes to ashes until there’s nothing left
no more friends cause i don’t want them back

you don’t know what to do or what to say to me
i’ve got a lot of time to rewind and fight my enemies
but only in my head cause you know i can’t do anything
i cannot talk i cannot think i cannot do a single thing

eyes on the prize and i am feeling great
gotta get my shit in line but i don’t wanna have to wait
time stands still but soon it flies by
everybody knows it no one wants to be that guy

back when i was five years old it seemed to last forever
i would stare up at the older kids and know that i would never
get to be like that and get so tall and gather all that knowledge
now i’m twenty years old and don’t know what to do in college

eyes on the prize and i am feeling great
eyes on the prize and i am feeling great
eyes on the prize and i am feeling great
eyes on the prize and i am feeling g-g-g

i don’t even know what i wanna hear
where’re you gonna be in the next five years?
just shut up or just spit it out
maybe i’ll fuck around and find out

oh my god it’s not that bad
whatever i said before has passed
all i had to do was wait
and now i know i’m feeling great

eyes on the prize and i am feeling great
eyes on the prize and i am feeling
eyes on the prize and i am feeling g-g-g
eyes on the prize and i am feeling g-g-great
