FROM ASHES TO NEW
"My Fight"

[Intro: Matt Brandybery]
Come on, get up

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
Get up, get up, get up
I'mma show you everything I've got inside
I won't give up, give up
Never backing down, this is my fight

[Verse 1: Matt Brandybery]
How do you live when every finger's pointing in your face?
How do you give your heart to something only you embrace?
How do you put your mind to something that you love
When you were growing up, everybody told you that you weren't good enough
Good enough would work for me; instead of love, you hurt me deep
Broke my trust and watched me bleed, ignored my pleas and squashed my dreams
Everything hiding underneath is coming out for you to see
The screams kept hidden down beneath, a broken spirit are finally free

[Pre-Chorus: Matt Brandybery]
Come on

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
Get up, get up, get up
I'mma show you everything I've got inside
I won't give up, give up
Never backing down, this is my fight

[Verse 2: Matt Brandybery]
Everything we do in life has got to be for something
I won't go down without a fight, no, I won't die for nothing
You held me under too long, I see a coming end
Take back your hand, you're not my friend; to me, you're fucking dead
All the things you did and do showed me the colors inside you
I now know all your hidden truths; if I were you, shit, I'd lie too
It's my turn now, I'll burn you down, nowhere to run and hide for you
It's tried and true, and I'll get through, I'll watch your spirit die in you

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
Get up, get up, get up
I'mma show you everything I've got inside
I won't give up, give up
Never backing down, this is my fight
Every word you said had you thinking in your head
You'd leave me here for dead but I'm alive
Get up, get up, get up
I'mma show you everything I've got inside

[Interlude: Chriss Musser, Branden Kreider & Matt Brandyberry]
You brought me down in ways I can't imagine
You made me believe, it's true
It's what I've got inside, this is my fight

[Bridge: Branden Kreider]
I hate the way you drag me down!
I'm not afraid 'cause this ends now!
I hate the way you drag me down, down!
This ends now!

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
Get up, get up, get up
I'mma show you everything I've got inside
I won't give up, give up
Never backing down, this is my fight
Every word you said had you thinking in your head
You'd leave me here for dead but I'm alive
Get up, get up, get up
I'mma show you everything I've got inside

[Outro: Branden Kreider]
I hate the way you drag me down
I'm not afraid 'cause this ends now
