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
