![]() ![]() The older we get, the longer it takes to fall. Be a hoplite on my feet, deflect shots from pikemen Be a phenom from my street, a dreadnought from Iceland I used to tread blocks and slice men Now a marketable sonnuva... the end stocks were priceless No peptalks, my set balked, I bent bars through fighting Ascent toward the light, the best gore since Eichmann Not just executing gameplans, through dense large enticements Money ain't enough sole motivation - death forged my license Kevlar chin, the ref started crying when a depth charge was sighted The old fox was told not to get the mess halls excited each f-bomb ignited by Philadelph's brawling titan immoral? might've been - plenty of Top 10 stars were sleighted robbers and thieves get appeased when the mongers besiege but if you hit and don't get hit... then you're probably teased the loss of my teeth is greater than a doctor's degree I'm in the same vein as James Toney... I could box in my sleep as I grow older, my will of mind ensures my body competes the straits of longevity part for the achievement of impossible feats Life isn't meant to be all jolly and grand I remember sitting by Bouie Fisher's deathbed, he was watching me dance - learned to live by the codes to stay hungry - cause most of these modern boxers today... are straight butt cheeks A champion in the present but I used to be the criminal type locked down in the system for liftin & heists and incidents of similar stripes As the years tally, I'm feeling younger, which I'm beginning to like Never mistake hard work & discipline for the elixir of life This is a chess man's game, take it from the old spider - I'll continue to fight, hoodwinking the masses with the riddles I write ..with my fists; all it takes is one precise shot to the chin & it's lights ![]() Last edited by Vulgar; 06-29-2014 at 12:45 AM. |
