I'm getting out alive
I refuse to die
I will always try to strive

I'm not giving in
This fight will never end
So let the games begin
 
Because you can't break me
I won't let you snap my will
My inner strength you will see

So come at me with all you got
I will not submit to you
If I lose, which I won't, at least I fought

The author's comments:
I wrote this because some people are alive but aren't really living. You can live your whole life dying inside and when you actually die it doesn't matter because your already dead. Some people may physically die but they never truly stopped living.
