I never knew life was going to be so hard,
when I was born who would have thought life would be bad,
I tried to find myself,
but it never worked out like that.
I wanted to feel accepted
I tried to fight,
but I guess that is not me,
after all, when has anything ever gone right?
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
Barely anyone thought I could do it,
or that I was bothering about,
they thought I wasn't going to make it,
but they didn't even get a shout.
To be written off,
without a say is cruel,
why was it always that way,
then of course came the bullying at school.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
Maybe I wasn't creative,
but I was really smart,
guess they saw that,
but clearly acceptance of intelligence is a dying art.
My own family never really saw me as an equal,
is it any wonder my life went so bad,
barely anyone fighting my corner,
I just became so sad.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
They all thought I was never going to be successful,
never gonna be a hero,
always at the bottom,
zero.
But they were all stupid,
can't you see just you were so wrong,
but I kept going, never gave up,
and became the number one.
So I became who I wanted to be,
got away from them all, I got free.
I moved onto the next step,
away from the small town, fly away,
I learned the hard way,
that sometimes winning is leaving and not coming back any day.
Travel on a boat,
ride my bike,
I just had to get away,
from the people who were so full of spite.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
I can count on my fingers,
the people who love me,
I had to leave,
to be fly and let free.
It's took twenty long years,
to get my own life,
I had to fight so hard,
so much grief and strife.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
I wrote a book,
I set up my own charity,
they thought I was worth nothing,
how wrong can you be?
It feels so sweet,
to spread my wings and fly,
I can feel it now,
I'm reaching the sky.
I never forgot how people treated me,
I won't be horrible ever because of how I have been hurt,
why would you treat someone so bad,
that they feel like dirt?
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
The path is clear now,
it's all downhill from here,
those people that held me back,
I have no fear.
I'm never going back,
I'm never going there again,
why would I want to,
the place where I suffered so much pain.
I wanted to belong,
but I never felt like I was welcome,
did they not realise,
I was the one?
Blending silk, strength and steel,
I fought them all as much as I could take,
I kept going on,
even though it was a massive ache.
I got spurred on by how many people in my life,
wanted me to fail,
pretty much everyone I knew,
didn't think I could prevail.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
Ok, so I'm not fully there yet,
still got a long a way to go,
but if you think I won't be happy one day,
I can't wait to say I told you so.
Not much longer left,
only a few more miles to happiness,
it's near, it's close,
I feel so breathless.
I've travelled so long,
so far and wide,
battled everyone and everything in my life,
hardly anyone on my side.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
The end is near,
they're all forgotten now, they're in my past
those people were so stupid,
what they said I am past.
Hanging on is hard,
but I flew away,
like the hero,
only never to return one day.
I have so much to offer,
intelligence, sporty and fit,
no-one else is going to say that,
so why can't I say it?
I know the truth now,
I've finally realised it was me after all,
I was the one,
destined to conquer them all.
Finally things seem to be working out,
a story of triumph and victory,
Sam Curran,
at last on top of the tree.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
Out of the darkness,
and into the light,
perhaps people will finally start respecting me,
now I won the fight.
Yes I can finally say,
I have confidence,
I never did all my life,
because I was afraid of the consequences.
Any glimmer or spark,
was stamped out,
but I think I know why,
perhaps they were afraid of how I could shout.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
Underneath that shy little boy,
was someone who could boss people around,
someone who could be feared,
yes, I found that out now.
From such small beginnings,
the strength within me grew,
I became someone who never gave in,
every barrier I blasted through.
But it's been like that my whole life,
fighting against everyone all the time,
taking them all on,
being Sam Curran, the greatest fighter of all time.
As a person I'm so varied,
it's untrue,
creative, logical, patient, the list goes on....
now my troubles are over, it's time to start anew.
The end is happy,
this story is true,
everything I've sung about,
is real, I promise you.
So it's time to have a good life,
everyone who doubted me you were wrong,
I'm laughing now,
you didn't know I could be so strong.
I've flown the nest,
the sky looks so great,
I'm finally realising,
I'm in full control of my own fate.
So it's time to say goodbye,
leave everyone behind, I broke away,
I finally I have that happy ending,
I knew I'd have one day.
