My back is sore but I'm standing straight
Better build my core, better pull my weight
My mind's running but I'm standing still
Despair is no match for my iron will
My iron will
Mind, body and soul
Step it up, work towards that goal
North strong
Not a slave to my physical flaws
All I had I gave
No time to quit or pause
North strong
Not a flake
Not a stick in the mud
It's either make or break
Forever young blood
It's either make or break
No matter what it takes
It's either do or die
I'm going sky-high
My neck is weak but I'm staring straight
Better reach my peak; step up to that plate
My heart's racing but I'm standing still
Despair is no match for my iron will
Blood, sweat and tears
Keep it up, after all these years
North strong
Not a flake
Not a stick in the mud
It's either make or break
Forever young blood
It's either make or break
No matter what it takes
It's either do or die
I'm going sky-high
Feel the noose tight around my neck
Gasping for air, I'm nervous wreck, hold on
Feel the sting sliding down my spine
I can barely sing; faulty by design
My back is sore but I'm standing straight
Better build my core; better pull my weight
Flesh, blood and bones
Rip it up, keep my head in the zone
North strong
Not a flake
Not a stick in the mud
It's either make or break
Forever young blood
It's either make or break
No matter what it takes
It's either do or die
I'm going sky-high
Carry the weight
Pick up the slack
Don't wait
Stay ahead of the pack
It's either make or break
No matter what it takes
It's either do or die
I'm going sky-high
