And the Winner is...


Respect the time it took,
if not the distance
Looking for an opening
at the path of least resistance
for i 've been too long on my feet,
may not have won
but i've never been beat,
never taken a seat waiting for the bell...

It's a cruel and bloody game
one simple rule, some things never change
knock the other off his feet
or have him throw in his towel
when he can no longer compete
but in slo-mo it looks so neat
we forget its a living

What makes you resort to blows,
is it anger that consumes you
or in truth do you not know?
To spend you life within a ring
when in fact it's a square
does that not tell you anything?
don't you see ,my friend,
you've been shadow boxing?
