Born To Race

引自Genius:

這是一首快節奏，充滿活力的歌，由 OneRepublic 為一款名為Need For Speed的遊戲製作。

這首歌只在亞洲部分地區正式發行， 從未在歐洲發行。Ryan tedder 在這裏演唱行動和成就， 他忽略那些唱反調的人，甩掉那些試圖阻止他的人。他似乎很享受這種緊張感，並且在born to race的壓力下努力拼搏。

Ryan 對此有着真實的個人體驗，因為他自己的生活被不斷變化的巡演填滿，從世界各地的現場表演，到為他自己的樂隊 OneRepublic 創作和製作一切，再到與他人合作為他們創作歌曲，比如 Ed Sheeran的“Happier” 。只要想想他花了多少時間練習，排練，提升他的技巧。 (像他這樣的聲音來之不易)

事實上，Ryan 的生活非常忙碌，以至於在2016年初OneRepublic 的第四張錄音室專輯Oh My My發行後不久，他不得不放下一切，否則就會因為精疲力竭而精神崩潰。然而，到2017年初，Ryan恢復了他的日常活動，目前正在從事多個音樂項目。Ryan tedder 可以很誠摯地説”我比之前前進的更快了” ^[1] 

These days, these days, get so hard to breathe

高樓裏，星期幾，天空陰霾欲雨

It’s hard to move

困在原地

Steep waves, steep waves, crashing into me

內啡肽，多巴胺，奔馳在血管

I could swim in the blue　衝破高山雲海

When it comes to my philosophy

我握緊信仰的方向盤

I’ve learned to take it all in my stride

用速度甩尾駛過急彎

When it comes to darker days

車燈照亮黑暗前程

I’m born to race and man I’ve been doing fine

我生而競速，追趕靈魂

These days, these days, get so hard to breathe

高樓裏，星期幾，天空陰霾欲雨

It’s hard to move

困在原地

So I’m going faster

讓我此刻飛馳

Faster than I ever been

甩掉灰暗的影子

I’m going faster

讓我此刻飛馳

Faster than I ever been

超越速度的極致

Make up for time now

時間已不早

Since I was way back

我重回賽道

I’m on a mission and you’re starin’ at the playback

我打破記錄，而你正在倒車入庫

You call me obsessed

你説我痴迷

I call you made up

你只是妒忌

You’re trying to stop me honey please don’t quit your day job

你跑完全程，卻只記住我尾燈上的花紋

When it comes to my philosophy

我握緊信仰的方向盤

I’ve learned to take it all in my stride

用速度甩尾駛過急彎

When it comes to darker days

車燈照亮黑暗前程

I’m born to race and man I’ve been doing fine

我生而競速，追趕靈魂

Sunlight is fadin’

陽光消散

No conversatin’

無需多言

I’m about to pass on through

我要繼續飛馳

I’m going faster

讓我此刻飛馳

Faster than I ever been

甩掉灰暗的影子

I’m going faster

讓我此刻飛馳
