Lyrics:

I'm buildin' my body
I'm happy when I'm buildin' my body
I'm tired of fightin', let's make friends
I'm tired of burnin' both ends

That's why I'm buildin' my body
It hurts me (Ouch) but I'm buildin' my body
And I know what that pain is worth
I know I feel the pain of birth

I'm pushin' up and gettin' down with my body
There's no one else around with my body
One look says I'm a stone disgrace
Don't kick no sand in my face

Because I'm buildin' my body strong
(I'm a-watching what I eat)
And I'm sortin' out right from wrong
(Hey, not a lot of meat)
And I know that it won't be long
Before I gotta quit smokin', again

Because I'm buildin' my body
I'm peaceful when I'm buildin' my body
I'm sweatin' out mistakes I've made
I'm gettin' back the dues I've paid

I'm doin' more and gettin' sore with my body
But I'm gainin' a rapport with my body
And it seems like the perfect time
They say I'm in my prime

And so, I'm buildin' my body strong
(I'm second at the table)
And I'm sortin' out right from wrong
(I'm readin' every label)
And I know that it won't be long
Before I gotta quit smokin'

'Cause I'm buildin' my body
There's someone else inside of my (Let me out) body
He's waitin' to be born again
