I heard this song on Jools Holland on Friday and absolutely loved it.
I think it's quite obviously about all the different ways we get knocked down in life, whether it's being taken down by certain specific events or being disadvantaged in some way by things in our lives outside our own control.
We're all like Ali, like the boxer. We fight to get back up as quickly as possible, before we get counted out - before the bell rings.
No matter how hard things seem, no matter how long the odds, we can always overcome things. Even when we're told it's impossible we can do it. Us humans might have sensitive skin but we're hard - if wounded - at the core.

Anything is possible.
