I was born for this
I spilled blood tears and sweat for it
broken knuckles broken promises and
Broken Ambitions

was all I ever knew
So many came and went
some with nerves of steel
Others with a glass jaw

In the end
They always knew
there was nothing they could do

they tried to beat me back
to break me down

To put the fear of God in me
but when all was said and done
I showed them the rage of the devil himself

I was like a caged animal
always ready to strike back
Never afraid to draw blood

I was always alone

no shadows to guide
me back to the light
no one to raise me up to clearer sky's
No one to drag me down to darker lies
Always in the middle of it all
Always a bloody constant
covered in head to toe with all the shame
and dread of a thousand battles
a thousand bloodstains
In the end the fight was all I ever knew
