you make it about winnin'
a competition
i'm not here to compete
i'm here to be with you

if you really wanna make it
about who takes first place this
is not going to last
and that's the sad truth

i wanna be your partner
not fight to see who'll go farther
to see the other falter
i don't wanna fight to the death

stop trying to make everything a contest
i'm tired and unimpressed
with your defensive strategies
and this fabricated rivalry in your head
