Sometimes I feel I'm against the ropes

Fighting for my life

Give me just one second to rest

I'll come back with an overhand right

I can't let circumstances get me down

Or knock me out

I've been in too many scuffles

Way too many bouts

Fight!—There is no mercy for the helpless in this life

Fight!—Whatever hand you're dealt, you should be ready to fight

Fight!—Never surrender, keep your guard up all the time

Fight!—Always remember, everything worth having is worth the fight

Here I am still sticking and moving

Sometimes I don't know what I'm doing

My instincts tell me to just keep throwing the jab

In this life situations sometimes get you down

But if you're not out there's no excuses

Get up and fight now

Fight!—There is no mercy for the helpless in this life

Fight!—Whatever hand you're dealt, you should be ready to fight

Fight!—Never surrender, keep your guard up all the time

Fight!—Always remember, everything worth having is worth the fight

Get up and fight!

I don't have the answers

But I'm still in the fight

I bob and weave then land a few

And I feel alright

You have to seize the moment

Or at least you have to try

Create opportunities for yourself

In this ring of life

Fight!—There is no mercy for the helpless in this life

Fight!—Whatever hand you're dealt, you should be ready to fight

Fight!—Never surrender, keep your guard up all the time

Fight!—Always remember, everything worth having is worth the fight
