I am laughing in defiance
I can and will be knocked down
          to my knees
                    from my knees
to the ground.
But I'll get up,
resentment and determination
glowering in my eyes
and I'll fight my way back.
This is something I will fight for,
with a fury unmatched in other areas.
I'll take a hit, I'll reel in pain,
but I'll come back.
          I'll fight.
          and I'll succeed
                    because I have determination

Go ahead.
Frown.
Say your words to the contrary.
You can't stop me.
You can't keep me from getting up,
from regaining my feet and my bearings.
I am determined.
