Hard work pays off cage reveal

Lyrics

[Intro – Deep Spoken Voice] Yeah... They see the lights now. They see the crowd. They see the cage. But they ain't see what it took to get here. Long nights. Closed doors. Money on the line. Everything on the line. We didn't wait for somebody to give us a shot. We built our own. Midwest Mayhem Promotions. Hard work pays off. Let's work. [Beat Drops – Verse 1] Started with a vision, now we bringing out the cage, Put the work behind the scenes, now it's time to hit the stage. Built it brick by brick, we ain't ask nobody favors, Put the Midwest on our back, now we waking up the neighbors. Pressure make diamonds, we was built inside the fire, Every setback hit the gas, took the whole thing higher. They can talk about the dream, we was working while they slept, Now the lights about to hit and we ain't even started yet. Business on the table, fighters ready for the war, Crowd outside the building, hear 'em knocking at the door. This ain't luck, this ain't hype, every move was calculated, Midwest Mayhem in the building— Yeah. We finally made it. [Pre-Hook] Hard work. Long nights. Big risk. Bright lights. Ten toes. No fear. We built this. Now Mayhem's here. [Hook – Heavy Gang Vocals] HARD WORK PAYS OFF! Yeah, we earned this! MIDWEST MAYHEM! Yeah, we built this! Whole building shaking when that bass line hit, Put the cage in the middle— WE WAS MADE FOR THIS! MAYHEM! MAYHEM! Let 'em know the name! MAYHEM! MAYHEM! We came to change the game! From the ground to the lights, We ain't come this far to play. MIDWEST MAYHEM! Get ready for the cage! [Verse 2 – Harder Delivery] Look— This that Midwest pressure, better recognize the sound, When the fighters hit the building, feel the energy around. Black gloves, bright lights, cameras pointed at the cage, You can feel it in your chest before they ever touch the stage. MMA. Kickboxing. Put the warriors on display. You can train a thousand nights, But tonight you gotta pay. Every fighter got a story. Every scar done got a name. But when that cage door lock— Ain't nobody else to blame. One-on-one. Man-to-man. Let's find out who really ready. Heart beating through your chest, But your hands better stay steady. Crowd screaming. Bass knocking. Feel the whole arena move. You ain't gotta tell us nothing. Step inside and make it prove. [Hook – Gang Vocals] HARD WORK PAYS OFF! Yeah, we earned this! MIDWEST MAYHEM! Yeah, we built this! Whole building shaking when that bass line hit, Put the cage in the middle— WE WAS MADE FOR THIS! MAYHEM! MAYHEM! Let 'em know the name! MAYHEM! MAYHEM! We came to change the game! [Music Changes – Dark Cinematic Breakdown] Hold up... Cut the lights. [Beat Stops] No music. No talking. Just listen. [Heartbeat / Low Bass] You hear that? That's pressure. That's every early morning. Every late night. Every sacrifice. Every fighter who was told they couldn't make it. Every person crazy enough to build something when nobody else could see it yet.

WHO BROUGHT THE FIGHT? M-M-P! [Final Verse – Aggressive] Now the cage in the building, Ain't no turning around. Feel the bass through the floor, Hear the roar of the crowd. We done worked too damn hard Just to come here and fold. This is bigger than a fight, We building something that's gold. From Kankakee to Chicago, Let 'em know who arrived. Midwest Mayhem Promotions, We bringing fight night alive. This the beginning. Remember the date. Remember the building. Remember the cage. January thirty, The beginning of a reign. Midwest Mayhem— Remember the name. [Final Hook – Biggest Section] HARD WORK PAYS OFF! HARD WORK PAYS OFF! We took the risk! We paid the cost! MIDWEST MAYHEM! Set it off! HARD WORK PAYS OFF!
