Tim Rice - Fight the Fight lyrics

What do I got? Well I got free will So they don't get a lick from me till I make my own choice I find my own voice Then I'll do it right They wanna put this boy in their ring A little pain and blood is their thing But listen here, bud You don't get my blood Ain't gonna fight that fight It's a long haul And I won't be walking their line I won't fight that fight But you bet that I'm gonna fight mine And I won't fall For either their truth or their lies A man's on his own whichever condition applies A man's on his own till he dies I quit the bugle Ain't no big deal So don't you tell me how that should feel Just cut me some slack Get off of my back And let me fight the fight It's like nothing more There ain't no ideals on this ride But show me the underdog I'm gonna be on his side And this ain't no war Well, leastways it isn't so far We're looking for love But only to find who we are Might as well reach for a star And yet the hardest man on Earth Knows what a woman's touch is worth Turn on the light And maybe there's somebody there But all along knowing That no one has reason to care Fighting the fight Statin' my case, singin' my song An army around me I'm part of But I don't belong And nobody knows what's gone wrong A man's on his own whatever illusion applies A man's on his own till he dies A man's on his own whatever illusion applies A man's on his own till he dies
