Baby You Gotta Pay
When you've lost the match and the hurt sets in
and you ask "Why? Why did I lose?"
You have to search deep down inside
Ad ask if you've paid you dues.
Don't carry on while folks are watchin'
Or shrug it off and just feel burned,
'Cause the man who's real evaluates
And look for the stones he left unturned.
Did I run out of gas when the going got tough?
Did I cut corners when it came time to condition?
Did I pump the iron until it hurt?
Did I check for ny ommission?
The summer came with the sun and the heat
And allowed for leisure and time to kill,
But did I go to tournaments and clinics
To increase and improve my skills?
And in the sessions of daily practice
When the coach prolonged the drill,
Did I push myself beyond exhuastion
To clinch the long, high hill?
Success isn't surely guaranteed
Because one possesses the tools,
It's effort, faith and endurance
That separates winners from fools.
So to those few who perhaps are listening to what I have to say,
It all boils down to one simple phrase,
"BABY YOU GOTTA PAY!"
There is a grind of
repetition the wrestler
must live with:
Unending hours of practice,
weight training, running,
watching films,
perfecting technique,
fierce competition,
loneliness, staleness,
fatigue...
only to wake up
to another day
of the same ol' grind.
Some love...
