The Guy in My Corner

Duck low!

Dodge!

Dodge I said Goddammit!

You will not lose!

You will not back down!

 

Uppercut!

Hit'em fast, hit'em good!

Are you afraid?

I said are you afraid?!

Fearing him is not an option.

You fear him and we lose.

Then everything,

And I mean

EVERYTHING

You've worked for

Will be lost.

 

If you give into your fear,

You're a gonner.

Get out there and 

Dodge, and

Duck, and

Hit'em with all you got!

 

Don't be scared that

You're gonna lose.

Don't be scared that

You're gonna get hit,

'Cause you're gonna get hit, and

It's gonna hurt like hell,

But if you fight,

And hit'em back

You'll never lose.

 

Get out there and fight!

Get out there and

Make him fear you first!

Because this is just a

Bad game of chicken, and

The first to

Give into the fear, and

Not get back up,

Loses.
