[VERSE 3] Spotlight hit when the fighters walk Whole room quiet when the real ones talk Eight sides waiting in the middle of the floor One way in when they lock that door Everybody came with something on the line Months of work for a few minutes of time Training when nobody watching at night Now everybody here gonna watch you fight That's pressure. That's heart. That's where legends get their start. Tonight we building something bigger than us Something the Midwest can call ours. So when you hear that music And the cage lights glow And the announcer grab that mic... There's only one thing left to know. [MUSIC STOPS] [DEEP VOICE] There is nowhere to run. There is nowhere to hide. There is... NO. ESCAPE.
