We fight, it’s in our nature We strive to be the best Our hopes and dreams are built it seems With a beating of our chest Will we ever learn, what we build we burn, and without concern We should feed on love, let it build us up, let it fill our cup Like the fire in my eyes I will rise, I will rise I am a warrior With the weight of the years All the blood, sweat and tears I am a warrior We stand atop our rivals Strike fear into their hearts They’re stepping stones of broken bones that play a fragile part Will they ever see that the ones beneath them will find their feet? And the fear they breathe, it will set them free Just as it did me Like the fire in my eyes I will rise, I will rise I am a warrior With the weight of the years All the blood, sweat and tears I am a warrior All the battles I’ve lost Only count to the cost I am a warrior And you’ll finally see how the brave die free I am a warrior Look at you now The tables, they have turned You’re sunk beneath the lessons that you never learned These battled bones Born out of broken homes and left to roam Are all that’s left of your untangled throne
