THE ARENA song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

two men step into the ring
only one will walk out a winner
it doesn't matter one little bit
if he's a saint or if he's a sinner

this is the test, a battle of blood
and in the end only one will stand
and if he does, then he does
only one will be the champion

but win or lose they both must fight
on this hot Saturday night
it's not wrong but it has to be right
it's a contest of strength and might

and in the end a man must fall
while the other stands ten feet tall
it's all you are or have ever been
your only choice is to try to win

it's the arena
ten thousand years
in the arena
of gut and fear

man to man
and fist to fist
that's just
the way it is

in the arena
Egypt Rome Greece and gore
each man has to face
his personal war

hold up his head
and aim to kill
if he won't do it
someone else will

and if he dies there in the ring
he will be among the kings
the ones who climbed the mount of fear
and fought for all that they hold dear

in the arena
in the arena
in the arena
of all that is

It's one thing to fight for who wins or loses, it's an entirely different fight if it's to the death.
