seven bucks an hour
got bills stacked on the counter
got a baby on the way they'll have to feed
his pride is getting torn down
his confidence is worn out
this ain't the way he dreamed that it would be
but he won't ever ask why
'cuz he's made up his mind
he's a fighter
got that fire
when you thought he'd fade away
throws a fist up
as he gets up
feelin' stronger every day
when he gets down on his knees
he finds the courage to believe
he's a fighter
he's a fighter
who inspires me
she's got no time for makeup
when she's got three boys to wake up
never thought she'd have to raise them on her own
and some days she feels like crying
but she's holding on
surviving
on the love that makes
their little house
a home
an' she sees it in their eyes
all the reasons why
she's a fighter
got that fire
when you thought she'd fade away
throws a fist up
as she gets up
feeling stronger every day
when she gets down on her knees
she finds the courage to believe
she's a fighter
she's a fighter
who inspires me
she inspires me
she's been here before
an' she's only eight years old
but she knows the name of every nurse she sees
and though she don't like the chemo
she waits it out
never losing hope
that someday soon she'll be cancer free
she's a fighter
got that fire
when you thought she'd fade away
throws a fist up
keeps her head up
feelng stronger every day
when she gets down on her knees
she finds the courage to believe
she's a fighter
she's a fighter
who inspires
he's a fighter
he's a fighter
who inspires me
he inspires me
you're my inspiration
my inspiration
you're my inspiration
my inspiration
you are my inspiration
my inspiration
you're my inspiration
my inspiration
