I'm for the underdog
I came from the bottom
I'm still on the bottom
Others tried to hold
me down
but they have failed
The good news for them is
I have not risen that much
but I'm still in touch
My rise is in my head
I refuse to stay down
like the eagle
I want to fly around
Reality sinks in
I'm no eagle
I'm just a man
with words
weighted down by
body mass
I accept my class
then try to pass
When you been on
the bottom so long
you have no choice
but to get strong
or continue to
hang down
Nothing on the bottom
but the ground
