Description
THE LION
in the early morning air
he’s in his house
to build his speed, to build his wind
he’s the lion in the ring
he’s the lion who
gives everything
many come
to see his game
to see him win or see him lose
but the lion fights
not for them
he fights for his own crew
in the early morning air
he’s in his house
to build his speed, to build his wind
he’s the lion in the ring
he’s the lion who
gives everything
a younger one then steps in
to test his metal and grit
the lion knows he’s tired
he knows he’s hurt
he knows this might be it
with a left and a right
in the side and again
the lion falls to the ground
he knows the hurt
he knows the pain
he knows the younger one might win
the lion rises
his heart grows strong
he throws the one that counts
the younger falls
to the ground
he knows the lion has won again
in the early morning air
he’s in his house
to build his speed, to build his wind
he’s the lion in the ring
he’s the lion who
gives everything
the battles he fought
they are many
some quick and some are not
the lion roars
when he wins
he knows he lives again
yea, he’s the lion in the ring
he’s the lion who
gives ‘em everything
yea, he’s the lion in the ring
