When you have been stripped of all hope
Humiliated, beaten, betrayed
Your pride and honor have been crushed
But still you fight on
Then you'll know your true strength
Wisdom, knowledge, steadiness
While others crumble, stumble and fall
You stand strong and you carry on
That's why you know that you'll win in the end

There were times I was down in the streets
There were times I was stealing to eat
There were times I was strung out on drugs
I felt alone and had nowhere to go
These are the times that you have to push through
You have to focus on what you must do
'Cause no one is coming to help
These are the times you must do it yourself

No one's coming
You've got to do it yourself
No one's coming
You've got to do it yourself

You won't know what you have lost
Until you've had to fight your way back
When you're in that dark place and there is not light
You gotta dig deep, stand strong and fight
The future's unwritten, the past is gone
No time for crying, it's time to move on
'Cause sometimes no one is coming to help
These are the times you must do it yourself

No one's coming
You've got to do it yourself
No one's coming
You've got to do it yourself

No one's coming
You've got to do it yourself
No one's coming
You've got to do it yourself

No one's coming
You are on your own
No one's coming
Dig deep and fight on

No one's coming
You are on your own
No one's coming
Dig deep and fight on
