Keep Fighting

They say we're the broken generation  
I say we're the cause of their lack of adoration
Sometimes they don't care
And life's never really fair

But we keep on fighting
though some just keep on dying,

Doesn't mean it's not tough
Doesn't mean life's won't be rough
And you will feel like you're not enough
But you are

So you need to keep on fighting
And choose to stop dying

I know it's hard
I know the future may seem very far
I know you're tired of being pushed around
I know you're tired of falling down

But if we never fall
Then we'll never learn to fly
And if we never fail
Then we've never even tried

The world tells us lies
Because you are worth it
You are perfect
You are enough
You are need
You are wanted
And you most certainly are loved

We are put through fires
Not to be burned
But to be refined
Because it's in the fires that we are defined
And when we are put under pressure
We will not be crushed
But will become diamonds
No longer in the roughs

So I don't see why we can't
Keep on fighting
Why we can't
Keep on moving
Why we can't
Keep on going
Can't Keep on dreaming
Can't Keep on hoping
Can't Keep on trying
...
Cause if we don't Keep fighting
We'll just keep on dying…
