The way I see it backing down isn't the path that I follow.
Seriously what's the point, backing down is only necessary when it betters everyone else than the group,
Growing up I seen people back down because they got beaten up to many times.
Standing up for your self is what makes you build character, if it's through the right way.
I'm not condoning you to go outside and beat up everyone that you see.
I mean standing up for the little guy to the bully, or to the adult that never allows you to show your true colors.
I know when the fight gets to the point when you have no chance and you want to throw in the towel.
And you want to leave and call it a day, but sadly you just can't.
To many people lasting in the fight winning or losing and showing that nothing can break you down makes you stronger.
And if you ask me I'd rather get knocked out and get back up than get down and walk away.
