I Am Bolt

He's in the starting position, he looks to the sky, kissing the cross around his neck No time to joke he's representing the black, green and gold His eyes fixed to the finish line Winning is the only mission in mind It’s time for business...the gun goes off ...he moves ...lightning fast He's Bolt ...Jamaica to the world. With a great big smile, he crosses the finish line no one to the right, no one to the left he knocks his chest 9.65 was his time The stadium screams...flags in hand the black, green and gold Jamaica …Jamaica "Bolt to the world " they shouted He knows he's great He has no limits He celebrates with pride in true Jamaican style The crowd calls out Bolt ...Bolt ...Bolt...he dances to entertain them to a dancehall rhythm He knows he will be remembered as the king of sprint The Jamaican legend I am Usain Bolt the fastest man on earth
