"The Fighter" Gym Class Heroes
(feat. Ryan Tedder)
I just love the way this song begins!!! The lyrics just make you want to go out and give life a big punch in the face even with all the blows it throws out to you,but....these are just words.Who in their normal mind would want to get beaten up????Hardest to fulfill than it is to just listen and feel like you can make it even when you get so scarred from all them punches.The words always take me to a movie scene when the hero keeps taking blows and somehow someway,inevitably rises up every time they fall.
Give me scars give me pain..that's one tough fighter!!!I woke up today,tired as can be,hoping today would just fly away and leave me alone or rather give me more time in bed to recover from the fatigue,,but nope!!The day had to rub itself in my face once i saw my class timetable.(And for reasons not to be discussed on this blog,i will not elaborate on that timetable )I had a class i had to face,and this was not going to be easy,so i needed to come up with a song to get me through that class( even the mere thought of that class just makes me replay it in my head)...in my effort to live life lyrically in every situation,i came up with these few words:
There will be countless times when i will have to face life's blows,i will not want to but with a fighter's attitude,the scars will only seem like a few scratches and the pain will only feel like lik e a step closer to victory!!!Gonna live life till we're dead!!!

(feat. Ryan Tedder)
Just waking up in the morning
And to be well,
Quite honest with ya,
I ain't really sleep well
Ya ever feel like your train of thought's 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 retail
But I do it for the kids, life threw the towel in on
Every time you fall it's only making your chin strong
And I'll be in your corner like Mick, baby, 'til the end
Or when you hear a song from that big lady
[Bridge]
Until the referee rings the bell
Until both your eyes start to swell
Until the crowd goes home
What we gonna do ya'll?
[Chorus - 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 the fighter, there goes the fighter
Here comes the fighter
That's what they'll say to me, say to me, say to me,
This one's a fighter
[Verse 2]
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 a 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 you really ain't got it bad
[Bridge]
Until the referee rings the bell
Until both your eyes start to swell
Until the crowd goes home
What we gonna do ya'll?
[Chorus - 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 the fighter, there goes the fighter
Here comes the 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 (hey!) [x4] y'all?
What we gonna do (hey!) [x3] y'all?
If you fall pick yourself up off the floor (get up)
And when your bones can't take no more (c'mon)
Just remember what you're here for
Cuz I know Imma damn sure
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 the fighter, there goes the fighter
Here comes the fighter
That's what they'll say to me, say to me, say to me,
This one's a fighter
'Til the referee rings the bell
'Til both ya eyes start to swell
'Til the crowd goes home,
What we gonna do kid?
(feat. Ryan Tedder)
Gonna live life 'til we're dead.

Then they'll say to me, say to me, say to me
There goes the fighter, there goes the fighter
