Lyrics
[Intro] [Jump Rope Whistling & Leather Rope Slap on Concrete]
Whistle, slap... double unders spinning through the gym
Keeping our athletic bodies lean and trim!
[Verse 1] [Driving Rock Guitars and Fast Drum Beat]
Leather jump rope weighted with the ball-bearing brass
Watching the intense training hours pass
Bounding on the balls of my feet with a rhythmic spring
Preparing my endurance for the boxing ring
Sweat flying in a circle around my form
Building up the energy for the coming silence
Heart pumping at one hundred and seventy beats
Far above the noise of the city streets
[Pre-Chorus] [Snare Roll and Bass Pulse]
One thousand jumps completed without a trip
On our disciplined athletic trip
[Chorus] [Fast Aerodynamic Jump Rope Drop]
Leather jump rope whistling two rotations per leap
A sacred discipline that our spirits keep
In the training camp of the champion team
Living inside a dedicated dream
Jump fast, breathe light, let the rope spin free
In the finest exhibition of agility
[Verse 2] [Guitar Chops and Bassline]
I drop the rope and shake my shoulders loose
Giving my energetic muscles no excuse
I sip cold water from the bottle in my hand
Ready for the greatest workout in the land
[Bridge] [Soaring Vocal Harmony and Guitar Solo]
Let the skipping rope condition the brave
For all the dedication that our spirits gave
Ropes, sweat, gym and loving grace
Inside this sacred, open training space
[Chorus] [Fast Aerodynamic Jump Rope Drop]
Leather jump rope whistling two rotations per leap
A sacred discipline that our spirits keep
In the training camp of the champion team
Living inside a dedicated dream
Jump fast, breathe light, let the rope spin free
In the finest exhibition of agility
[Outro] [Jump Rope Slap and Heavy Breath Fading]
Jump rope double unders...
Gym conditioning.
[Fade Out]
