Lyrics
[Intro] [Brass Boxing Bell Clang Three Times and Arena Roar]
Clang, clang, clang! Round twelve! Spitting the rubber mouthguard in pride
Step out to the center of the ring in stride!
[Verse 1] [Heavy Overdrive Guitars and Heavy Rock Drums]
Canvas ring floor stained with water and sweat
The most brutal championship battle met
Sixteen-ounce red leather gloves taped at the wrist
Clenching our warrior determination in the fist
Ropes vibrating as twenty thousand people scream
Living inside the heavyweight title dream
Swollen left eyelid cut above the bone
The greatest courage that was ever known
[Pre-Chorus] [Snare Roll and Bass Pulse]
Corner coach shouts 'Three minutes to glory!' clear
Wiping away all our little pain and fear
[Chorus] [Hard-Hitting Heavyweight Boxing Drop]
Brass bell clanging for the final round twelve
Where into our deepest reserves we delve
Inside the roaring arena of the Las Vegas fight
Unleashing our full championship power and might
Throw hard, stand tall, let the heavy punches fly
Underneath the championship arena sky
[Verse 2] [Guitar Chops and Bassline]
Heavy left hook connects on the jaw with a crack
Never gonna turn and never looking back
The champion wobbles on his weary feet
Where the grit and the championship glory meet
[Bridge] [Soaring Vocal Harmony and Guitar Solo Battle]
Oh, boxing is a battle of the human heart
A brutal and courageous work of art
Gloves, canvas, bells and loving grace
Inside this sacred, open sporting space
[Chorus] [Hard-Hitting Heavyweight Boxing Drop]
Brass bell clanging for the final round twelve
Where into our deepest reserves we delve
Inside the roaring arena of the Las Vegas fight
Unleashing our full championship power and might
Throw hard, stand tall, let the heavy punches fly
Underneath the championship arena sky
[Outro] [Boxing Bell Clangs Once and Referee Waves Fight Over]
Round twelve bell...
Heavyweight champion!
[Fade Out]
[End]
