I am the Gypsy King from pillar to post
Flipped the script in hitting my goals
as I sit on the throne in a battle of nerves
to give up and go as I ask, what I’m worth?
not the man on the surface I appeared to be
masking how nervous I was in reaching my peak
but with each beer I swig, I learned to cope
the fears in me grew and were exposed!
as I saw the abyss
with an unearthly focus as I’d swerve a blow,
turn the scope to fall from the brink,
keeping my circle close,
leaving it all in the ring
it caused a rethink, went dipping from the stress
skipping on my legs,
become a motor mouth, driven by success
different from the rest with the troubles I faced
but still running the game
fast on my feet, now I’m coming of age
the rest are stuck in their ways as I bobble and weave
another lamb slaughter, trash talker
knocked from his feet
with my unstoppable reach that’s put me top of the tree
with improbable speed, I started lighting weights in a fitness craze
once I tipped the scales
but soon id become boxing’s biggest name
it slipped away not controlling my inner temper
beside myself in a cry for help slouched in the centre
now im happy as larry…
I align the belts from my chair with the sceptre
but I did remember how to bob and bounce
dropped a strap then dropped the pounds
lost my head but never lost the crown
no amount of money could justify another fight
but in the rough patch I noticed a tougher side.
got that Mike Tyson, Fury but moved like a butterfly
but it wasn’t always like this,
often id watch the darkness ignite from the throttling gas
I started a fire when dropping the match
arose from the canvas and finally escaped
the smoke off the ashes had released the vapours
So I learned to appreciate oneself like a piece of cake
heart, dedication.. lead the way…
so focus, observe and deviate
never be afraid to ask for help, itll help yourself faster!
remember, men’s mental health matters!

happy xmas all!
