Jack 50

You might have the verbal to talk the talk
Do you have the talent to back the walk

Doesn’t matter if you have a massive crew
When the bell rings, there’s nothing they can do

Sizing up your opponent, are they prepared
Looking full of confidence, or just plain scared

Look them straight in the eyes
Is it them or you who will take the prize

It’s time to stay focused, keep the mind clear
Let preparation and positivity banish any fear

Be the best you can be, having trained hard
Put the work in, to get the W on the card

When in the ring, it’s you and you alone
Be lively, up on your toes, don’t turn to stone

The strength, belief and courage come from within
Here for just one purpose and that’s to win
