When I try my hardest is when I fall my fastest,
because they don't want me to win.
Kicked when I'm down, done with a grin.
I climb and I climb, but they always shut me down.
Can never succeed, will never succeed.
Waiting for me to bleed.
I'm not saying I will defeat you,
all I'm saying is I won't let you win!
Ian: It seems that I'm down again.
Francis: It can't stay like this!
