[Refrain]
Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
[Pre-Chorus]
And all those things I didn't say
Were wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
[Chorus]
This is my fight song (Hey)
Take back my life song (Hey)
Prove I'm alright song (Hey, ha)
My power's turned on (Hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (Hey)
I'll play my fight song (Hey)
And I don't really care if nobody else believes (Ha)
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
[Verse]
Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep
Everybody's worried about me
In too deep, say I'm in too deep (In too deep)
And it's been two years, I miss my home (I miss my home)
But there's a fire burning in my bones (In my bones)
Still believe, yeah, I still believe
[Pre-Chorus]
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
[Chorus]
This is my fight song (Hey)
Take back my life song (Hey)
Prove I'm alright song (Hey, ha)
My power's turned on (Hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (Hey)
I'll play my fight song (Hey)
And I don't really care if nobody else believes (Ha)
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
[Post-Chorus]
A lot of fight left in me
[Refrain]
Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
[Chorus]
This is my fight song (Hey)
Take back my life song (Hey)
Prove I'm alright song (Hey)
My power's turned on (Hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (I'll be strong)
I'll play my fight song (Hey)
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
[Outro]
No, I've still got a lot of fight left in me

Fight Song was produced by Jon Levine.
Rachel Platten released Fight Song on Thu Feb 19 2015.
In an interview with ABC News, Rachel Platten explained how “Fight Song” came about:
When I wrote ‘Fight Song’, I was in a particular low point. I needed to remind myself to not give up, that I still believed in myself and that I still had fight left.
I didn’t intend to write ‘Fight Song’, you kno...
Rachel recently talked about it with Billboard:
I think maybe a misconception people have about me from ‘Fight Song’ is that I’m always encouraging and always in a good mood and always positive – and that’s beautiful, I love that people think that, but it is not true,“ she said. "This album allowed...
