Lyrics
Have You Come For The Fight
I?ve done it and had it, and now I can?t look away
It?s hard to believe I once could, I must say
It all piles on ?til your hope is near gone,
?Til you hardly can tell where?s the good in the day
Don?t give me stories of grand ever-afters,
For today, I must decline?
I?d rather we raise one voice up to the rafters
For the life that is yours and is mine?
Will they see the sun burnin? in our eyes?
Will you stand fast against the lie?
Have you come for the fight?
Are you ready to win?
Have you come for the fight
Of your life, my friend
Have you come to stand tall,
With a will that won?t bend?
Have you come for the fight
Of your life, my friend
Do unto others as you?d have them do -
The latter?s been somehow forgotten?
Is it really the hardest damn thing in the world
To give back as good as you?ve gotten?
In the fog of the future and the smoke of the past,
Come today, I will stand on my own to the last
I?d have no complaints if we were all of us saints
But that first stone has yet to be cast?
I feel the sun burnin? in these eyes
And I see the white dove as she flies?
