Ali Days

I feint

And the day moves to the right.

It does not know

How ready I am,

How I have eagerly looked forward,

To this moment, to this fight.

I jab

And all that assails me goes left.

I dip

And my enemies lose breath.

I move forward

And they can't believe their eyes.

Why does he keep getting up?

Why does he rise?

There is Ali inside

There is Ali inside

There is Ali inside.

You do not know

How God has changed my pride.

In the face of loss

There is Ali inside.
