Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fighting hard, fightin' strong
Fightin' harder and stronger
Fighting hard, fighting strong
Fighting harder and stronger
(Oh, I) I will fight for you
I will hold you so deep in the night
(Oh, I) I will fight for you
I will hold you in the deep of night
[Verse 2]
Waitin' for my moment, it's now or never
Heartbroken and hopeless, it's now or never
Down on my life, felt like dyin's better for ya
Don't come round here tryna find yourself
Belly of the beast booin', only God can help
[Verse 3]
I woke up with a vendetta this mornin'
Rise and shine, demise of my mind, and I'm haunted
Eyes wide while all y'all still yawnin'
My pride won't die till I'm dormant
Show me where the war at, there's death threats on my door mat
I'm selfish, I need all that, no accolade escape
See, I be sittin' in the grave
'Fore I be sittin' in the cage
Asked Ali, "What's the price of war?"
Asked God why Mama made me poor
Ask police why they hunt me down
We fight to live and fight for sport
I try to give, they ask for more
I backed away, they turn they back
Lifestyles of talented and black
Back on the roads, I must react
This is my story
Yeah, this is my story
