I Fight

Give me a reason to back down from this fight,

Are you so sure you’re right?

Do you dare get up in my face?

You’re first move, do you now want to erase?

After everything I’ve gone through, you think you scare me?

You’re such a newbie.

You make me laugh,

Are you doing this for your own behalf?

What are you trying to prove?

You’ve got guts, I do approve.

But, you’re sniffing around the wrong alley,

If you keep this up, you’ll be in for an interesting finale.

Antifreeze courses through my veins,

Barely an ounce of patience remains.

How about I give you some advice,

Before you start a fight, you’d best think twice.

You don’t understand what drives my survival,

And until you do, don’t try to be my rival.

I’ll beat you fast and make you hurt,

So you’ll think again about what you took.

I fight with you everyday,

For some reason, you never stay away.

Are you looking to get in another hit?

Another crime, you want to commit?

Wasn’t the first enough to squelch your blood lust?

You are so cruel, vial, and unjust.

You must not see it: it’s like you put a part of you on a shelf.

How can you live with yourself?

Is this how you make up for what you lack?

Beating up on other kids until they’re purple and black?

I will never let you hurt me, my family or my friends,

You should try to make amends.

But I know you won’t.

Instead you play on peoples fears,

Thinking your success is near.

What if I told you that you’ll never beat me?

Would you give up? Stop? Finally see?

I will never give up. I will never back down.

It’s you who should skip town.

What are you getting out of this?

Does it bring any kind of bliss?

Why do you cause so much tension?

Are you so desperate for attention?

Think about what you’re doing,

Think about all the chaos you’re brewing.

I fight to keep standing,

Do we have some kind of misunderstanding?

Why must you always attack me?

This is all you’re doing, don’t you see?

Why?

Are you trying to tell me goodbye.

As friends you’re supposed to have my back,

It’s not for you to smack.

What’s going on with you?

What are you trying to work through?

Just talk!

Do you think I’m going to balk?

I’m not going to rat you out…

If you have to, shout!

But you need to tell me something; otherwise what we have is history,

Help me understand your misery.

Don’t just throw a punch at my face,

I don’t want to give you space.

I’ve had enough of your lies!

Through your cruel words, you’re real feelings arise.

So give up this tough guy act,

Tell me the facts.

I see through you now,

Any more of this shit, I won’t allow.

With all my strength I will fight,

Let’s make this right.
