Sweat is dripping down my palms
Repeating quotes from Ali and the father's psalms
Strap on my boxing gloves
All the exercise and training in past clubs
Must help tonight
As I am the competitor in this main highlight
I will maul and crack the jaws of any opposition in sight
So I can become the champion by the end of the night
Before the onslaught I have a quick light
Can't be too calm but not too uptight
I inhale the fumes of the cigarette
The nicotine causes tightening in my chest
I cough abit but regain my breath
Time for the games and pain to begin
Step out the stage walking down to the watershed that is nearin
While the crowd are screaming loud and cheerin
My moment of glory is waitin
Ever since this morning I've been contemplatin
My counter strategy
To put down savagely
Against the enemy who attempts to battle me
Enter the ring like a king pa**ionatly
Face my competitor as I laugh at thee
14 rounds in and he's beginning to ha**le me
My foe has some intelligent plans
He keeps attacking on like Cinderella man
In the heat of the moment
I need to seek the component
To defeat my opponent
The crowd are in favour of him as they sing
But they don't know what I'm about to bring
Then I unleash the knockout swing
I won the match gaining the champion belt
Looked at the defeated and can't imagine how angry he felt
Walking past the adoring fans
I look back in appreciation of the many more in the stands
Leave out the backdoor and into the alley
My nerves retreat and arrogance begins to rally
But at the end of the grafiti stained corridor
A car pulls up
I can see that the interior is full up
The window slides down
The driver comes out of hidin now
And then
