[Verse 1]
I wake up sore, still lace my shoes
Take one more hit, I don’t lose
Scraped up knuckles, salt in the cut
Still stand tall when they count me out
Bag full of bills, heart full of fire
Bent but I don’t fold for desire
Every bruise tell a story I earned
Every dead end turned when I turned
I been knocked down, hard to the floor
Got dust on my mouth, came back for more
They want me quiet, want me tame
I come back louder, same name, same aim
[Pre-Chorus]
If I fall, I rise again
You throw stones, I turn to steel
You bring pressure, I bring force
I hit first when I feel that pull
[Chorus]
Hit back hard
Hit back hard
I get up
Then I swing harder
Hit back hard
Hit back hard
Never fold
I was built for the fire
[Verse 2]
Sun up to sun down, no quit in my chest
I don’t need luck, I do my best
Clock keeps ticking, I keep pace
Every setback just set my face
I seen cold nights, empty hands
Still made moves with a busted plan
Took the loss, learned the game
Came back sharper, not the same
They try push me, I push through
They say “can’t,” I say “watch me do”
If the world lean heavy on my back
I lean right back, then I attack
[Pre-Chorus]
If I fall, I rise again
You throw stones, I turn to steel
You bring pressure, I bring force
I hit first when I feel that pull
[Chorus]
Hit back hard
Hit back hard
I get up
Then I swing harder
Hit back hard
Hit back hard
Never fold
I was built for the fire
[Bridge]
Ain’t no breaking what won’t bend
Ain’t no ending where I began
I got scars, I got proof
Every hit made me bulletproof
[Final Chorus]
Hit back hard
Hit back hard
I get up
Then I swing harder
Hit back hard
Hit back hard
Never fold
I was built for the fire
