The Man in the Arena

Got my back against the ropes
Am I right or wrong?
I don't know
But I know we too far on this road to look back
Can't look back, nah
I can't let up on the gas, nah
While they hoping Ima crash

Voices in my head I swear they keep on getting clearer
All this back and forth feel like I'm playing with Serena

Don't ask me how I feel, you know how I feel
I'll let you say your part, but let's keep it real

What else can I do? I been at it all week
How you know the truth? This just what I let you see
Who am I to you? Cause it's definitely not me
I'm ashamed of all my worst days
Took a couple shrooms and fought my demons for my birthday
Where were all of you when I was grinding putting work in?
Sitting in this room the only time when it feels worth it
Swear this s**t is perfect till I

Got my back against the ropes

Can't look back, nah
I can't let up on the gas, nah
While they hoping Ima crash
