Lyrics
They say

keep mind over matter

That’s why

these thoughts leave me battered

Life’s tough

But I must keep going

the pain

Helps prove that I’m growing

I never knew I was a fighter

Until you pushed me to the edge

I just had to focus and take down

all the voices inside my head

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this

Stronger

than I have ever known

You'll try

But you can’t break these bones

I never knew I was a fighter

Until you pushed me to the edge

I just had to focus and take down

all the voices inside my head

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this

I know Im in for a rough ride

But I’m going to hold on tight

I won’t give up without a fight

I never knew I was a fighter

Until you pushed me to the edge

I just had to focus and take down

all the voices inside my head

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this

But I’m a fighter

I’m a fighter

I’ll get through this
