Life's tough
So what?
I'm alive
I've been down
Seen hard times
But I survived

You know I learned my lessons
At the school of hard knocks
I know there's more to livin'
Can't hold me down
Can't hold me back

'Cause I'm bound for glory
Oh, we're bound for glory
A heartfelt victory
Is a warrior's destiny
Bound for glory
Oh, we're bound for glory

I'll fight
And I'll win
'Cause I'm strong
(I'm breakin' the chains)
Yeah, I stand tall
My head's high
Now I belong
(It's easin' the pain)

You know I learned my lessons
As the pain made me strong
And, oh, my strength is growin'
I know what's right
I know what's wrong

Bound for glory
Oh, we're bound for glory
A heartfelt victory
Is a warrior's destiny
Bound for glory
Yes, we're bound for glory

Oh, you can't hold back the tide
When it starts to turn
No, you can't go back
You can't go back
It's a lesson to learn

You know I learned my lessons
As the pain made me strong
And, oh, my strength is growin'
I know what's right
I know what's wrong

Bound for glory
Oh, we're bound for glory
A heartfelt victory
Is a warrior's destiny
Bound for glory
Oh, we're bound for glory
(Bound for glory)

Bound for glory
Oh, yeah, bound for glory
A heartfelt victory
Is a warrior's destiny
Bound for glory
Yes, I'm bound for glory

Oh, yeah, bound for glory
Oh, yeah, bound for glory
A heartfelt victory
Is a warrior's destiny
Bound for glory
Bound for glory
