lyrics

Getting tired of the grief
The holding back from insecurities
My obligations tie me down
I’m losing sleep, these anxieties

And everybody tries to tell me who I am
I’m so much more than that and I’m still standing
I’ve had enough of this, I’m fighting back
Fighting back, Oh, I’m fighting

Won’t catch me with my head down, no more
Won’t look over my shoulder, no remorse
Surrendering my once ways, set ablaze
To all that I was, to all my constraints

Too many nights were just like this
Trapped in my head, I lay awake in my bed
And I worry about what people think of me
Why do I care, Why do I care?

I wish that I could just be proud of who I am
I’ve been to hell and back and I’m still standing
I’ve had enough of this, I’m fighting back
Fighting back, Oh, I’m fighting

Won’t catch me with my head down, no more
Won’t look over my shoulder, no remorse
Surrendering my once ways, set ablaze
To all that I was, to all my constraints
Emerging from the ashes, like a phoenix
I’m only on my way up, I can feel it
Vitality arising, spread my wings
I’m ready to fly, I’ve got on my war paint

And I’ll fight, fight, fight, fight
I'm fighting for me, oh I’m fighting for me
Fight, fight, fight, fight
I'm fighting for me, oh I’m fighting for me

Won’t catch me with my head down, no more
Won’t look over my shoulder, no remorse
Surrendering my once ways, set ablaze
To all that I was, to all my constraints
Emerging from the ashes, like a phoenix
I’m only on my way up, I can feel it
Vitality arising, spread my wings
I’m ready to fly, I’ve got on my war paint

And I’ll fight, fight, fight, fight
I’m ready to fight, oh I’m ready to fight
Fight, fight, fight, fight
