[VERSE 2 – DOUBLE-TIME FLOW] Hold up— I been ready, better tell ’em get ready Heavy on the gas and the foot stay steady Everybody tough when the room ain’t sweaty Till the bell go ding and the hands get heavy Quick with a slip and a dip and a pivot Give me one shot, I’ma make you remember it Minute by minute, I’m pushing the limit You wanted the smoke, now you standing up in it Ain’t no running, ain’t no ducking Crowd still jumping, bass still thumping Gloves start touching, then ain’t no discussion One good connection make the whole room erupting Came from the mud with a dream and a dollar Now everybody in the building gon’ holler Fighters walk tall when they step from the tunnel Heart beat loud like the kick and the rumble Faster— Built for the pressure, I’m testing whoever Step in the cage, better pull it together Weather the storm, I’m attacking forever Midwest heart, we don’t fold under pressure Never been scared of a name or a record Everybody dangerous till somebody check ’em Ref in the middle and the crowd going reckless Door already locked— AIN’T. NO. EXIT. [BEAT CUT] [CHOIR – A CAPPELLA] Nooooo escape… Nooooo escape… [VOICEOVER] One cage. Two fighters. One way to settle it. Welcome… to Midwest Mayhem.
