  • I've been fighting like a soldier
    From the day that I was born
    Trying to make it through the hard times
    Of this cruel world
    But I'm keeping my head up
    Even if I am alone
    And I'll be fighting till
    The good Lord takes me home

    Well, I've been running in a long race
    Trying to get to the prize
    Doing everything that I can
    To stay alive
    But I'm never gonna give up
    Even if I am alone
    And I'll be running till
    The good Lord takes me home

    I'll run the race that needs to be run
    I'll fight the fight that needs to be won
    Are you listening
    I'll do what it takes for me to survive
    I'll never give up or compromise
    I do believe I'm walking away
    With the victory

    I've been working my whole life
    To be the best that I can
    And I'm willing to sacrifice
    All that I have
    I'm never gonna give up
    Even if I am alone
    And I'll keep working till
    The good Lord takes me home

    I'll run the race that needs to be run
    I'll fight the fight that needs to be won
    Are you listening
    I'll do what it takes for me to survive
    I'll never give up or compromise
    I do believe I'm walking away
    With the victory

    I'm never gonna give up fighting
    I'm never gonna stop until I'm done
    Even if it costs my life and
    He will see me when the Kingdom come

    I'll run the race that needs to be run
    I'll fight the fight that needs to be won
    Are you listening
    I'll do what it takes for me to survive
    I'll never give up or compromise
    I do believe I'm walking away
    With the victory
    I do believe I'm walking away
    With the victory Writer/s: ALEX EBERT, FILIP NIKOLIC, TIM ANDERSON
