Legendary Song Lyrics

Hands wrapped, knuckles taped black
Pick my gloves up off the mat
Fighting's all I ever had
Wasn't born with tons of gifts
Had to work hard as a kid
Know that everything I did
Was to catch the other kids

Slowly built that self-esteem
Turned myself to a machine
I'd compete so I'd be seen
I would lose and I'd succeed
But you'd never see me quit
I'd always get after it
Knew I had a different gift
I'd outwork any other kid

Deep within our souls
We can feel there's something empty
We need something more
I feel destiny, she tempts me
Tells me there's two paths
They both have a different ending
Choose wise and you'll find that
Pain leads to ascending
