It's up to us, underdogs.

Here is a shoutout to the people who are scarred, in a mad cycle, being bullied, or to people who have low self esteem.

             It's up to us, Underdogs. 

In a world where a soul gets judged by how bright it shines, 
A world where people get abused by others, 
A world where everyone has rights, but yet they don't. 

A underdog that's what we are,
A star that shines, but is way too far. 

There is hope. 
There is hope to the one who holds up his white flag. 
There is hope to the one with the black and blue eye. 

And we are the indifferent.
We are the ones who fight our own bitterness. 

So bark, whimper, growl, and claw on.
Until no one in the ring is left. 
Until it's up to us. Underdogs.

Underdogs are awesome and tough as hell; but I do not agree with the 'white flag' bit. I don't ever want anyone to give up. Underdogs are about being determined. The white flag would imply that they just gave up. Maybe it's just me because I'm such a 'Don't Give Up, You Coward' type person. Good work, though. Non abstract. Simple and sweet. Keep it up.
