I Will Fight for You
Michelle Creber & Gabriel Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can′t think, can't speak tonight
I′m on the edge, just fall away
That is my fate
How did I get up here
I don't really care
So call me a fool, call me a liar
Why would I keep fighting for life?
Because no one fights for me
Because no one fights for me
You may speak these words at your darkest hour
Questions of black or white, no compromise
But shutting the door and erasing your world
Won′t solve all your troubles
Though it seems so right
Hope will come in time
Don't be a fool, don′t be a liar
Deep down inside you know it's all worthwhile
Through the pain, just fight for life
′Cause everyone's worth fighting for
Everyone′s worth fighting for
This is where it starts, this is where it ends
Don't hold your breath now
It's all coming down, so don′t think too fast, oh
Colors and feelings, it sounds so appealing
What does it matter
Ooh, find your faith in love, oh, just fight
You′re not a fool, you've never been a liar
Just take a breath and know it′s gonna be alright
Fight for your life every day and every night
Because I will fight for you
Because I will fight for you
Because I will fight for you
"I Will Fight for You" is a song by Michelle Creber and Gabriel Brown, which is all about motivating a person who might be on the edge and thinking of giving up. The first verse expresses the feeling of giving up, where the singer is unable to think or speak and feels pushed to the brink of collapse. The singer seems to be questioning how they got there in the first place but doesn't seem to care much about it. The chorus of the song comes across as a rebellion against the person who tries to put them down or make them feel like they are not worth fighting for. The lyrics say that they are done pretending that everything is okay, but ultimately they will fight for themselves even if no one else is willing to.
The second verse is the most meaningful part of the song, where the singer tries to inspire the listener. The verse starts with an assurance that things will become better in time as hope will come in time. The singer asks the listener not to give up, as that won't solve all their problems even though it seems like the right thing to do in the heat of the moment. The lyrics emphasize that hope comes from fighting for life and taking up the fight every day and every night. The song culminates in the ultimate declaration that the singer will fight for the listener.

So this where I stand now
I am currently at a crossroad in my life
Can't think, can't speak tonight
I am too overwhelmed to put my thoughts and feelings into words
I'm on the edge, just fall away
I am close to giving up and letting myself fall
That is my fate
I feel like I am doomed to fail
How did I get up here
I am questioning how I arrived at my current situation
I don't really care
I am indifferent to the cause of my predicament
So call me a fool, call me a liar
Others may judge me harshly and question my credibility
I'm done pretending that it's all worthwhile
I am no longer putting on a facade of happiness and success
Why would I keep fighting for life?
I am questioning the purpose of continuing to struggle
Because no one fights for me
I feel unsupported and alone in my battle
You may speak these words at your darkest hour
These feelings may arise during someone's most difficult time
Questions of black or white, no compromise
It may feel like there is no middle ground or solution
But shutting the door and erasing your world
Retreating and isolating oneself does not solve the underlying issue
Won't solve all your troubles
Avoidance is not a solution to the challenges one faces
Though it seems so right
It can be tempting to retreat and give up, but it's not the best solution
Hope will come in time
Believing and trusting that things will get better eventually
Don't be a fool, don't be a liar
Do not deceive yourself or others about the reality of the situation
Deep down inside you know it's all worthwhile
Even though it may be difficult, there is a purpose and reason to keep going
Through the pain, just fight for life
Even with the hardship, it's important to keep pushing through and fighting for one's life
'Cause everyone's worth fighting for
Every person deserves love and support in their struggles
This is where it starts, this is where it ends
This moment is the beginning and end of this particular struggle or journey
Don't hold your breath now
Don't hesitate or wait too long to take action
It's all coming down, so don't think too fast, oh
Everything is happening quickly, so it's important to take a step back and not rush in without clear thinking
Colors and feelings, it sounds so appealing
The idea of a perfect and harmonious life seems enticing
What does it matter
But in the grand scheme of things, does it really matter?
Ooh, find your faith in love, oh, just fight
Believe in love and have hope for a brighter future, and keep fighting for it
You're not a fool, you've never been a liar
You have integrity and credibility
Just take a breath and know it's gonna be alright
Take a moment to calm down and have faith that everything will eventually be okay
Fight for your life every day and every night
Keep fighting and never give up, no matter how hard it gets
Because I will fight for you
You have someone in your corner who will fight for you and support you through your struggles
Because I will fight for you
The message is reinforced that there is someone who will never give up on you

This song spoke to me so much cause I've been in a depression for about a month now because of family issues. When I read the lyrics and heard the song, I cried for a good 10 minutes. This song has cheered me up a lot. Thank you Michelle and Gabe for this truly amazing song. I love you two!
