I Didn't Say It Would Be Easy Lyrics

Now you all know I'm an ambitious man
Or you would not be standing here before me.
And I know you are all ambitious too
Or you would turn around and flee.

I need heroes not zeroes, I hope that you agree.
If you're wheezy or queasy don't come crying to me.

I didn't say it would be easy.
I didn't say it would be nice.
I didn't say there would be sunshine, sunshine.
Victory always has a price.

A wise old man once told me, "Listen son,
You've got to turn rough graphite into diamonds."
You and me have got a race to run
So fasten down and buckle up.

I need strong me, not wrong me, I hope that you agree.
If you're flaky or shaky don't come crying to me.

I didn't say it would be easy.
I didn't say it would be nice.
I didn't say there would be sunshine, sunshine.
Victory always has a price.
