Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's a war out there everyday You can't hide from it, you gotta play By the rules, play it cool Gotta laugh in the face of the sad disgrace When your friends and foes look alike on the face of it They missed their history But they fight over place in it Yeah, they fight over place in it [Pre-Chorus 1] Hard-hit by the times That's just how your life goes by I know it's not your fault, you say But there ain't no other way [Chorus 1] So step on up to the plate Meet your fate Walkin' straight on into the lion's lair Step on up, up to the plate 'Cause this ain't no game It's time to make history, yeah [Verse 2] You sink, you fall, you break down And you think you can't take One more round But something almost evil Keeps getting you up Something angry, something deep Something stuck in your gut Something telling you You can not give up You can not give up [Pre-Chorus 2] So you fight the times That's just how your hours go by In combat, we roll and ride Take your losses in your stride [Chorus 2] So step on up to the plate And if you fall Get up, rise like a phoenix, that's your fate Step on up, up to the plate It's your last chance now It's time to make history today [Chorus 3] Step on up to the plate Meet your fate Walkin' straight on into the lion's lair Step on up, up to the plate 'Cause this ain't no game It's time to make history, yeah
