Fighter

Fighter
Lyrics by XJ Hall.

tell them i'm fighter
i'm just like a lighter
if you can ignite me
then i'll turn to fire
reach up to the sky and
light up the horizon
to destroy the darkness
make the light alive again
we can be good friends
or we can be haters
whatever hate you have inside
is hate you have created
too late to turn back now
let's get this furnace black now
get ready to attack now
stand back i got the power

been in and out of houses
since he was about this little
that's when
he could play out loud
and make sound with a tiny fiddle
don't mind me all he said
there's no consequences dreaded
the whole world was his teacher
no reason to be upset

but he will never forget
the i-deas implaneted in
his head keeps recalling them
when he sees the shadow thin
in the corner of the room
that's when he's reminded when
something was so very askew
that he couldn't even pretend

there's a fighter in his mind
and it tries to be his friend
but it's crowding up the space
other things should be fitting in
when are you going to go
he keeps asking this question
but the man always replies
why? you're my obsession

i have to make a confession
you think you want me out
you don't know what you keep praying
don't know what you're talking about
i'm not packing up my bags
see i'm here until the end
if anybody asks
you can tell them who i am
(tell em)

tell them i'm fighter
i'm just like a lighter
if you can ignite me
then i'll turn to fire
reach up to the sky and
light up the horizon
to destroy the darkness
make the light alive again
we can be good friends
or we can be haters
whatever hate you have inside
is hate you have created
too late to turn back now
let's get this furnace black now
get ready to attack now
stand back i got the power

sometimes i just feel like a freakin fighter
watch the blood turn black as i attack it bleeds from me
and sometimes i just feel like that i'm on fire
and i know now that nothing could ever be more free

i'm a fighter
fighter
fighter

man this is how it goes
everybody here knows
if you're a nice guy forest
you can't run wit them hoes
well i'm sick of the rep
its time to step out of the box
you can just call me jack
cause i'm climbing to the top
i'm not gonna do it your way
cause your way just aint cool
i say its elementary
i mean go back to grade school
i'm not fittin in no cliques
but i'm spittin all my game
mother fuckers i'm different
ya'll keep acting all the same
better look back again
you won't see the same face
cause the next time that you see me
i'll be in a whole notha place
no i'm not gonna erase
everything that i've done
fool! that's whats made me stronger
why the fuck would i run
like a black sheep i'm wild
yeh i do what i wish
see i flaunt my own style
whatever category it fits
you may dislike my voice
or hate my bomb attitude
but let me say
but you don't know me bitches
like you think that you do

tell them i'm fighter
i'm just like lighter
if you can ignite me
then i'll turn to fire
reach up to the sky and
light up the horizon
to destroy the darkness
make the light alive again
we can be good friends
or we can be haters
whatever hate you have inside
is hate you have created
too late to turn back now
let's get this furnace black now
get ready to attack now
stand back i got the power

sometimes i just feel like a freakin fighter
watch the blood turn black as i attack it bleeds from me
and sometimes i just feel like that i'm on fire
and i know now that nothing could ever be more free

i'm a fighter
fighter

i'm a fighter
fighter
fighter
fighter
