Jimmy grew up.
Shooting down little toy soldiers.
Daddy was gone, fightin' a war.
Mama worked hard.
And every day she looked a little bit older.
But Jimmy got strong, growing up poor.
He had a letter tucked away.
That got him through the darkest day.
His daddy's words burned in his mind.
He would learn how true they were in time.
You better be a fighter.
Give it all you got and never let go.
Nothing's gonna stop you if you don't say "no".
Cuz if you've got a dream baby you ain't broke.
You better be a fighter.
Give it all you got and never look back.
You can be the ruler of your one room shack
Since the weight of the world ain't getting any lighter.
You better be a fighter.
You better be a fighter.
Jimmy grew up.
Playing hard in the streets of the city.
Where life's a game he had to learn well.
Jimmy quit school.
Couldn't get a job he was strung out in the alley.
And every day felt just like livin' in hell.
He had a letter tucked away.
That got him through the darkest day.
His daddy's words burned in his mind.
He would learn how true they were in time.
You better be a fighter.
Give it all you got and never let go.
Nothing's gonna stop you if you don't say "no".
Cuz if you've got a dream baby you're a pro.
You better be a fighter.
Give it all you got and never look back.
You can be the ruler of your own ??
Since the weight of the world ain't getting any lighter.
You better be a fighter.
You better be a fighter.
When you think you're losin'.
And your back's against the wall.
Don't give up.
You won't fall.
You better be a fighter.
Give it all you got and never let go.
Nothing's gonna stop you if you don't say "no".
Cuz if you've got a dream baby you're a pro.
You better be a fighter.
Give it all you got and never look back.
You can be the ruler of your one room shack
Since the weight of the world ain't getting any lighter.
You better be a fighter.
You better be a fighter.
You better be a fighter.
