On My Way to the Cage

On my way to the cage I'm getting taught a lesson On my way to the cage I'm choking on the medicine On my way to the cage I'm stepping hard on four-leaf clovers On my way to the cage I'm learning the same thing over and over On my way to the cage The taste of blood is in my mouth On my way to the cage My fear is in their eyes On my way to the cage My animal blood is pure On my way to the cage No regrets and no last words On my way to the cage I heard the crowd roar Thoughts of you were long behind me I couldn't ask for more The lights are almost blinding Come closer, tears open my eyes And fear me, and fear me Your soul is on a leash Your mind is on a string Your world's inside my fist You push yourself above me But there's something you have missed You always say you hate me But you watch me anyway It's a pain you can't resist On my way to the cage I'm larger than life and laughing at death On my way to the cage I'm sipping on pain and feeling fine On my way to the cage You're paying your price and I'm paying mine On my way to the cage I'm watching you cry and wave goodbye On my way to the cage I heard the crowd roar Thoughts of you were long behind me I couldn't ask for more The lights are almost blinding Come closer, tears open my eyes And fear me, and fear me Your soul is on a leash Your mind is on a string Your world's inside my fist You push yourself above me There's something you have missed You'll always say you hate me But you'll watch me anyway You can't resist
