The Hard Man
There are times in a mans life when he knows he's the best
This is the time his mind and body are undoubtedly the hardest
He's focused more then ever on the tasks at hand
Making him shown as one hard man
When he endures punishment both physically and mentally
Showing his primal side in the face of his enemy
His heart pumps in a rapid course
Disregarding his weakness showing no remorse
A time when all his beliefs become fully released
Unleashing his rage like a caged beast
Precision and finesse in his movements are revealed
When gauging his trespasses on the battle field
Beaten, stabbed, ridiculed and humiliated are his burdens
During his youth as a streetwalking urchin
Bearing and strength come as and easy action
When dealing with pain of any faction.
To this my friend is a hard, hard man
Living in a kingdom of a unruly land
