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
