Miracle

I woke up this morning thinking how things change

Looked in the mirror, everything felt strange

Walked out the door saying I gotta do better

Went for my daily morning jog in this this bitter cold weather

Always dreamed of being a professional athlete, but feel like I’m an underdog

Try to vision life in lights, but feel I can’t see through the fog

On route to the boxing gym, getting dirty looks

Started punching the punch bag with my left, right hooks

I’m doing this for my sweet baby girl & sweet baby boy

Children are a gift from the lord

Remember if you live by the sword, you die by the sword

The time is here & it’s fight night

Sparring time, It’s definitely on sight

Going towards the boxing ring, everyone cheering

To be honest I was shocked, thought they would have been jeering

Saw my opponent, looked about 2 pounds bigger than me

I didn’t care, that didn’t fear me

It lasted 3 rounds, he won the first, I won the second

This was the time to claim my status, I reckoned

He thumped me down, I hit the canvas

I thought this was gonna end in a madness

Then I heard a voice in my head

“The fight ant over, be victorious”

Got up with a minute left, I gave him the wickedness uppercut

Ref counted 1 to 10, he was out cold

I won my first title, feel like diamonds and gold

I became a living legend, as a champion

Then I said to myself, miracles do happen
