Born to Fight

They're tryin' to take away my pride By stripping me of everything I own They're tryin' to hurt me inside And make me into a white man's drone But this one's not for sale And I was born to fight I ain't been knocked down yet I was born to fight I'm the surest bet There ain't no man no woman No beast alive that can beat me 'Cause I'm born to fight They're tryin' to dig into my soul And take away the spirit of my God They're tryin' to take control And monitor my every thought I won't let down my guard And I was born to fight I ain't been knocked down yet I was born to fight I'm the surest bet There ain't no man no woman No beast alive that can beat me 'Cause I'm born to fight --- Born to Fight - Tracy Chapman
