[Verse 1] They said I'd never make it here, Told me I should disappear, Just another face in the crowd, Never worth a second look somehow.
[Verse 2] There's something burning in my soul, Won't settle for anything less, Than proving everybody wrong, I've been fighting all along.
[Chorus] I'm the underdog, ready for the fight, Underdog, breaking through tonight, They wrote me off, now I'll prove them wrong, Being the underdog made me strong.
[Verse 3] Picked last for every team I tried, Never had luck on my side, While others had it handed down, I was fighting for every pound.
[Verse 4] Every "no" just made me tougher, Every doubt just made me hunger, For the moment I could say, I knew I'd win this game.
[Chorus] I'm the underdog, ready for the fight, Underdog, breaking through tonight, They wrote me off, now I'll prove them wrong, Being the underdog made me strong.
[Verse 5] Now they're starting to take note, All their doubts were just smoke, All that work in the dark, Finally made my mark.
[Verse 6] Now the spotlight's burning bright, Everything has come to light, All those years of pushing through, Made me stronger, made me true.
[Chorus] I'm the underdog, ready for the fight, Underdog, breaking through tonight, They wrote me off, now I'll prove them wrong, Being the underdog made me strong, I'm the underdog, and I proved them wrong.
