Competition
DeGarmo & Key Lyrics

Some win by inches
Winning can be achieved by the tiniest of margins in a competition.

Some win by sweat
Winning in competition requires hard work and effort.

Can't take no chances
There's no room for mistakes when it comes to competition.

Got to hedge your bet
To increase your chances of winning in a competition, you must consider multiple options and possibilities.

Gotta be a little better
To come out as a winner in a competition, you have to be slightly ahead of your rivals.

That the best on your street
You should strive to outperform even the most talented individuals in your immediate environment.

'Cause it's tough in the jungle
Competition is fierce and relentless.

Ehen you've got to compete
When you choose to participate in a competition, you must be prepared to give it your all.

What you can't buy in this world
Some things cannot be purchased with money.

You know you can steal
Some people resort to dishonest behavior to gain an advantage in competition.

You've got to be ruthless
To come out as a winner in competition, you have to be willing to do whatever it takes.

To be number one, ooh...
The ultimate goal in competition is to emerge as the winner.

Competition, you got to fight to stay alive
Competition is an intense struggle where participants must strive to survive by giving it their best.

Competition, it's a struggle to survive
Survival in competition requires constant effort and involvement.

Competition, you know it's rough out on the street
The competition has a harsh and cut-throat environment that demands high performance from participants.

Competition, once you've decided to compete
Once you've made up your mind to participate in a competition, you must accept the risks and consequences that come with it.

No satisfaction
There is no sense of fulfillment in a competition marked by unethical means to achieve victory.

Only quiet despair
The realization that one has compromised their principles to win in competition is depressing even when they emerge victorious.

Unbending heroes
There are people who choose to remain steadfast in their moral values and principles despite the temptation to cheat in competition.

Trapped in Darwin's nightmare
Competition can be distorted to follow the principle of 'survival of the fittest' which leads to chaos and ruthlessness.

Deep in the arms of desire, yeah
Winning in competition can bring a sense of satisfaction that may even linger for an extended period.

How does it feel
What does it feel like to come out as a winner after competing?

To have what you've wanted
Winning in a competition can fulfill an individual's desires and aspirations.

Since you were so young?
Winning can result from a dream or ambition that one had as a child.

Look at the mess that we're in
The relentless nature of competition can lead to stress, frustration, and conflicts among participants.

Yeah, there's a better way to live, yeah
There's a more fulfilling life outside the cut-throat competition environment that values principles and ethics.

Competition
The concept of competition is the central theme of this song.

Competition, oh, yeah
The concept of competition is emphasized and reiterated for emphasis.

Competition, there's a better way to live
Competition can be detrimental to an individual's emotional and mental health. There can be fulfilling ways to live one's life outside of competition.
