about
This is a timeless song about a team coming together to win -- a positive affirmation about fighting through doubt and exhaustion to "conquer the finish line". The team could be a professional football/basketball/baseball team fighting to win the playoffs, an Olympic team going for the gold, an army going into battle to defend their country, an automobile company seeking to reclaim their #1 position, or any number of similar scenarios.
It has a rap break at 1:58 that adds another dimension to the song.
lyrics
We were made for this!
We were made for this!
My lungs a-blazing, flames racing through my veins
(my lungs a-blazing, flames racing through my veins)
My body's aching, gonna smash right through that pain
(pain, pain, pain, pain)
Ain't gonna stop now, drawing the battle lines,
Fight ‘til we drop now, checking my vital signs,
My heart’s a-pounding, the roof’s about to blow
So let's go!
We were made for this!
(Nana na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(Nana na na na na na na naaaa)
My head's a-throbbing, there's thumping inside my chest
(my head's a-throbbing, there's thumping inside my chest)
A tick-tick-ticking, clock's racing, we’re chasing the best
(best, best, best, best)
We rise together, this is our time to shine
The win’s forever, let’s conquer the finish line
Them drums a-pounding, gonna deal that final blow
So let’s go!
We were made for this!
(Nana na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(Nana na na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(Nana na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(Nana na na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
Ooo, aah, ooo, aah, ooo, aah
We were made for this!
Come on now, uh huh
We were made for this
We were made for this.
What do ya do when ya gotta get going
The mountains are high and the rivers are flowing
How do ya deal when things stand in your way
What do ya think and what do ya say?
And what do ya do when you’re down on your luck
Do ya keep on pushing, or do ya get stuck?
You’ll always face a moment of doubt
But that's when ya shout!
We were made for this!
Ain't gonna stop now, drawing the battle lines,
Fight to the top now, checking my vital signs,
The crowd’s a-screaming, the roof’s about to blow
So let's go! (go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)
We were made for this!
(Yeah – come on!)
(Nana na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(Yeah, yeah)
(Nana na na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
We were made for this!
(Yeah, yeah, yeah…uh huh, uh huh)
We were made for this!
(we were made, we were made for this)
(Nana na na na na na naaaa)
We were made for this!
(we were made, we were made…oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Nana na na na na na na naaaa)
