the fighter (feat. ryan tedder)
Just waking up in the morning with the beat well Quite honest with ya I ain't really sleep well Ya ever feel like your train a thoughts been derailed? That's when you press on, Lee nails Half the population's just waitin to see me fail Yeah right, you're better off trying to freeze hell Some of us do it for the females And others do it for the retails But I do it for the kids, life's tough, time to head on Everytime you fall it's only making your chin strong And I be in your quarter like mid, baby, til the end Or when you hear this song from that big lady Until the referee rings the bell Until both your eyes start to swell Until the crowd goes home What we gonna do ya'll? [Ryan Tedder:] Give em hell, turn their heads Gonna live life til we're dead Give me scars, give me pain Then they'll say to me, say to me, say to me There goes a fighter There goes a fighter Here comes a fighter That's what they'll say to me, say to me Say to me, this one's a fighter And if I can last thirty rounds There's no reason you should ever have your head down Six foot five, two hundred and twenty pounds Hailing from rock bottom, loserville, nothing town Text book version of the kid going nowhere fast And now I'm yelling kiss my ass It's gonna take a couple right hooks a few left jabs For you to recognize that you really ain't got it bad Until the referee rings the bell Until both your eyes start to swell Until the crowd goes home What we gonna do ya'll? [Ryan Tedder] Give em hell, turn their heads Gonna live life til we're dead Give me scars, give me pain Then they'll say to me, say to me, say to me There goes a fighter There goes a fighter Here comes a fighter That's what they'll say to me, say to me Say to me, this one's a fighter (Everybody put yo hands up) What we gonna do? What we gonna do? What we gonna do? What we gonna do? Y'all What we gonna do? What we gonna do? What we gonna do? Y'all You know what we gonna do If you fall pick yourself up off the floor (get up) And when your bones can't take no more Just remember what you're here for Cuz I know imma damn sure [Ryan Tedder] Give em hell, turn their heads Gonna live life til we're dead Give me scars, give me pain Then they'll say to me, say to me, say to me There goes a fighter There goes a fighter Here comes a fighter That's what they'll say to me, say to me Say to me, this one's a fighter Till the referee rings the bell Till both ya eyes start to swell Till the crowd goes home What we gonna do kid?
