I am loving participating in the 2020 #AtoZChallenge. So on my musical journey through the alphabet, I am sharing music that is in my extensive Apple Music collection. Today I have chosen For King and Country’s – Fight on Fighter.
This song is so important to me because all my life I have been a fighter. Whether it be from when I was little dealing with never enough love from either parent, to their divorcing and my being sent to The Devereaux Foundation in Victoria, Texas for three years because one parent didn’t want me and the other could not handle me. To my struggles with committing stupid property crimes in my teens and going to the Texas prison system 3 different times by the time I turned 22. To my struggles with alcoholism and cocaine addiction during adulthood. I have always been a fighter and my faith in my Higher Power whom I choose to call God has always got me through stronger than ever. Here I am at 53 and the 9th Step Promises are coming true because I am doing this ONE DAY AT A TIME!!
That’s what’s in My Rattled Cage, thanks for stopping by!!!
You were scared and prepared for the heartbreak
Everything you knew faded out of view
Stole a piece of you
Be the one who would take all the arrows
Save you from the pain, carry all the weight
But I know that you’re brave
Don’t let anyone steal your fire
Fight on, fighter
The Spirit is alive inside ya, yeah
Let it breathe, give it wings, set it free now
Time to make ya walk, break the prison bars
Show them who you are
Don’t let anyone steal your fire
Fight on, fighter
The Spirit is alive inside ya, yeah
I know you’re stronger
Braver than you were before
You know you’re braver
Oh, no, you don’t have to be afraid
Together we’ll face it
So don’t ever stop no matter what
‘Cause you’re gonna make it
Don’t let anyone steal your fire
Fight on, fighter
The Spirit is alive inside ya, yeah
Fight on, fighter
Don’t let anyone steal your fire
Fight on, fighter
The Spirit is alive inside ya, yeah
