Stand Up Eight

Hands are shaking, my knees are weak
The light's gone out now, it's hard to see
But a voice keeps calling out from the deep
Says, "Get up, son, this fight's for me"

And I feel that rage running through my veins
Like a red-hot flame catching fire

Fall down seven times, stand up eight
You may strike me down, but I won't stay
I come back swinging, kicking and screaming
I'll face my demons, oh, you'll hear me singing
Fall down seven times, stand up eight
Fall down seven times, stand up eight

Stronger men have walked my path
They fought the battles, but don't come back
But I'll keep fighting with all I have
You never wanna see me give up, no, 'cause I will not last

Fall down seven times, stand up eight
You may strike me down, but I won't stay, hmm
I come back swinging, kicking and screaming
I'll face my demons, oh, you'll hear me singing
Fall down seven times, stand up eight
Fall down seven times, stand up eight

And I feel that rage running through my veins
Like a red-hot flame catching fire

Fall down seven times, stand up eight
You may strike me down, but I won't stay, no
I come back swinging, kicking and screaming
I'll face my demons, oh, you'll hear me singing
Fall down seven times, stand up eight
Fall down seven times, stand up eight

Oh, you'll hear me
