This is a song about redemption. It's about a man who learns what is really important in life: his family and his soul. Both are worth fighting for.
Lyrics
Everybody Love his, everybody needs him Another night coming home late Workin at a fast pace, leading that rat race Nothing ever gets in his way Skips his daughter's ballets, misses his son's ball games Says he pays for their future that way You might say that He won the battle, but he lost the war Lost his way Traded his time for those nickels and dimes His kids only wanted to play He lost it all looking for more He just didn't know for sure, what's worth fighting for Didn't mean to meet her, couldn't help but see her You know it always starts off that way, Just a ride in his car, now it's going to far Tells his wife he's workin late She makes him feel younger, his marriage goes under Twenty-five years and he just walks away You might say that He won the battle, but he lost the war Lost his way He took for granted the love that they had And let it just fade away He lost it all looking for more, He just didn't know for sure, what's worth fighting for Looking back on his past Sees those mistakes that he made Man, his kids grew up so fast, And something inside of him changed He wanted his life back, he knew he was outmatched He fell to his knees, and he threw up the white flag Yeah He'd say that He lost some battles but he won the war Found his way Traded his pride for what money can't buy And found that amazing grace He went back to the wife he ignored Broke into tears as he walked through the door Cause he finally knows for sure What's worth fighting for It's worth fighting for.
