Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Seven bucks an hour

Bills stacked on the counter

Got a baby on the way they'll have to feed


His pride is gettin' torn-down

His confidence is worn-out

This ain't the way he dreamed that it would be


But he won't ever ask why

'Cause he's made up his mind


He's a fighter, got that fire

When they thought he'd fade away

Throws a fist up, as he gets up

Feelin' stronger everyday

When he gets down on his knees

He finds the courage to believe

He's a fighter, he's a fighter

Who inspires me


She's got no time for make-up

'Cause she's got three boys to wake up

Never thought she'd have to raise them on her own


And some days she feels like cryin'

But she's holdin' on, survivin'

On the love that makes their little house a home


And she sees it in their eyes

All the reasons why


Yeah, she's a fighter, got that fire

When you thought she'd fade away

Throws a fist up, as she gets up

Feelin' stronger everyday

When she gets down on her knees

She finds the courage to believe

She's a fighter, she's a fighter

Who inspires me, ooh, oh, ooh, oh

She inspires me, yeah


She's been here before

And she's only eight years old

But she knows the name of every nurse she sees


And though she don't like the chemo

She waits it out, never losin' hope that

Someday soon she'll be cancer-free


She's a fighter, got that fire

When they thought she'd fade away

Throws a fist up, keeps her head up

Feelin' stronger everyday

When she gets down on her knees

She finds the courage to believe

She's a fighter, she's a fighter

Who inspires, yeah

He's a fighter, he's a fighter

Who inspires me

He inspires me


You're my inspiration, my inspiration, yeah

You're my inspiration, my inspiration, yeah

You are my inspiration, my inspiration, yeah

You're my inspiration, my inspiration, yeah
