We do not condone violence of any sort.

lyrics

Just give me a chance to catch my breath.
Feels like I'm a hundred years older
& I'm falling deeper in debt.

But if you stop this fight, I'll kill ya!
cause mama ain't raised no quitter,
I got one shot
And Imma rock it harder
than Ali
in the Thrilla from Manila

Yeah,
maybe life is a losing game
A crap shoot that I can't win.
Man, those dice might be loaded
but I sure as shit ain't gonna cave in!

You stand on that ringside
waving that towel in the air
forked tongue in your mouth
feasting on my cauliflowered ear,

Screaming at me
"Down! Down! Stay Down!
But fuck that!
I'm the one eatin' the dirt off the ground!

Fuck YOU!
I'm getting back on my feet.
Einstein flunked out of school, twice!
Yeah, Beethoven was deaf & Helen Keller was blind!
This is my chance, my life & it's about TIME!

I ain't no bum, Mick. I ain't no bum!
I got my own rhythm
I'll beat my own drum...

'Cause I was thinkin', it really don't matter if I lose this fight.
It really don't matter if this guy opens my head, either.

Apollo's Creed ain't about nothing but greed.
I may not win, but I'll make that motherfucker bleed!

Ain't gonna be no rematch.
Don't want one.
when that bell rings and I'm still standin',
I'll know for the first time in my life...

That I am my daddy's son!
