|
| Dig deep and find the strength there’s just no other way
|
| I know it seems like no one’s in your corner

| I know you’ve thought of throwing in the towel
|
| It’s hard to take it when you’re hit below the belt again but
|
| I know you don’t want to go back to the beginning
|
| Keep your chin up when they try and bring you down
|
| Well I’ve been called a lot worse than a cliche
|
