    Backstory:
    I came up with  the hook as a play on the words "The Speed of Light" except I made it "The Speed of Life" to more accurately reflect our harried pace. Running all the time doesn't allow us time to fulfill our dreams until we choose to put our dreams first.

    Lyrics:
                                                      
    Hit snooze one too many times Another day, another fight, Gulping coffee on the drive Against the clock, against the grind, Pre-Chorus: We're spinning round and round, On this hamster wheel we’re on But we can’t break free ‘til we see, Chorus: We're running at the speed of life, But missing out on all that's right, Stuck in this endless rat race, We’re jetting at the speed of life Faster than we want to fly Leaving dreams in our wake. Verse 2: I’m barely through the office door Boss tells me I’m not needed anymore He says pack up all your things And I said, “time to chase my dreams” Pre-Chorus: We're spinning round and round, On this hamster wheel we've found, But we can break free if we see, Chorus: We're running at the speed of life, But missing out on all that's right, Stuck in this endless rat race, We’re jetting at the speed of life Faster than we want to fly Leaving dreams in our wake. Bridge: It's time to make a change, To rearrange our days, Prioritize what truly matters, And let go of the rest. Chorus: We’re rushing at the speed of life Now we’re living all that’s right Running towards our destiny We’re rushing toward our better life ‘Cause Now we finally can decide To live our dreams Outro: No longer trapped in our mind We're living life by design, Moving at the speed of our dreams, Finally feeling free.
