Fighting Spirit

I felt a punch collide with my face

It left a stinging mark

They punched me in the gut just in case

And I started having flashes of dark

From my lip came a trickle of blood

They turned me into a punching bag

And pushed me into the mud

I felt as disposable as a rag

I have to bare it

Because I have a fighting spirit

I have to endure it

Because I have a fighting spirit

I get up on my feet

Ready to go

I will not be beat

I will give them a show

I have the fighting spirit

I will not be beat

I have endured it

And it's not me that's lying in the street
