Stand and Fight

All my life through
I’ve tried to do what’s right
I know no other way
But to stand and fight
I’m feeling so up
Yet I’m locked down in the night
I’m hypeing so much
Like I could take flight

I’ve stood out from the rest
Stepped into the breach
Where war stuck to me
Like a bloody leech

I’ve seen gunshot eyes
Heard shrieks all around
Traded tit for tat
Paid pound for pound

Now I stand in the valley of wrong
And the soil falls through my fingers
And all I feel is despair
A dark despair that lingers

I live for the time
Which I’ll never know
When a man like me
Can learn to love and grow

Oh I’m feeling so up
Locked down in the night
I’m hypeing so much
Like I could take flight
All my life through
I’ve tried to do what’s right
I know no other way . ..
