Born to the Fight

Steel in my veins, I’m a furnace of fire

Scaling this mountain, keep climbing it higher

Life ain’t a handout, it’s teeth in the dirt

Grit in my fists while the wounds start to hurt

Echoes of struggle, they sing through my chest

Challenged by shadows, I wrestle unrest

Integrity forged where the pressure’s applied

I’m the storm that survives when the oceans collide

Fight, fight, rise to the fight!

Won’t bow down, I’ll stand in the light

Challenged, broken, still I ignite

Life is the battle, I’m born for the fight!

Knuckles are raw from the punches I swing

Dreams on my shoulders, they’re tied with a string

They tried to unthread me, unravel my soul

But I’m iron and thunder, I’m breaking the mold

Every failure’s a scar, every scar is a map

Every map leads me back to the truth in the gap

Between what I want and the fear I suppress

Victory’s sweat, not a handout or guess

Fight, fight, rise to the fight!

Won’t bow down, I’ll stand in the light

Challenged, broken, still I ignite

Life is the battle, I’m born for the fight!
