Fight song – Rachel Platten Like a small boat In the ocean Sending big waves Into motion1 Like how a single word Can make a heart open I might only have one match but I can make an explosion2 And all those things I didn’t say Wrecking balls inside my brain3 I will scream them loud tonight Can you hear my voice this time4 This is my fight song Take back my life song Prove I’m alright song5 My power’s turned on Starting right now I’ll be strong6 I’ll play my fight song And I don’t really care if nobody else believes Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me7 Losing friends and I’m chasing sleep Everybody’s worried about me8 In too deep Say I’m in too deep9 And it’s been two years I miss my home10 But there’s a fire burning in my bones11 And I still believe Yeah I still believe12 And all those things I didn’t say Wrecking balls inside my brain I will scream them loud tonight Can you hear my voice this time This is my fight song Take back my life song Prove I’m alright song My power’s turned on Starting right now I’ll be strong I’ll play my fight song And I don’t really care if nobody else believes Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me A lot of fight left in me Like a small boat In the ocean Sending big waves Into motion Like how a single word Can make a heart open I might only have one match but I can make an explosion This is my fight song Take back my life song Prove I’m alright song My power’s turned on Starting right now I’ll be strong I’ll play my fight song And I don’t really care if nobody else believes Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me Now I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me13 24 Explained Lyrics 1.
