You got me fighting for my life
You got me fighting for my hometown
You got me fighting for these people
You got me praying for a showdown
Ask the people what they want
You know they think that you can get it
But you got me fighting for my life and you know I won't forget it
You got me hoping for a fall
You got me hoping for some action
You got me hoping for an angel
You got me praying for some treason
Tell the people where to go
You know I think they'll go and take it
But you got me fighting for my life and you know I wouldn't fake it
Got to keep it on time
Got to keep it on track 'cause all the muscle we show, you know it's coming right back
Yes, we're wasting our time
We're hiding the fact that all the people we're fighting are fighting 'cause we're fighting right back
You got me sweeping up the past
You got me sweeping up the present
You got me sweating out the future
You got me praying for the moment
Charm the people with your smile
You know you think that you can school me
But you got me fighting for my life and I know you'll never fool me
No, no, no, no, you got me fighting for my life and I know you'll never fool me
No, you got me fighting for my life and I know you'll never rule me
No, you got me fighting for my life and I know you'll never, never rule me
You got me, no, you got me fighting for my life and I know…
