Against The Ropes Lyrics

It's been such a long day, all his energy has gone.

He clocks out from work, then he makes his way back home.

Outside the rain falls down, but he takes it in his stride,

He's soaked to the bone but he won't lose an inch of pride.

Going home in the rain,

The wind so cold he feels a pain.

As far as all his dreams and hopes,

He's always been against the ropes.

It's in his blood, no giving up,

He's only falling down to learn get back up.

And he, he's the last of a dying breed,

No selfish bone, no chance of greed

He's always there to look up to, he's always set the bar.

It's him that keeps me going when I know the road is far.

Going home in the rain,

The wind so cold he fels a pain.

As far as all his dreams and hopes,

He's always been against the ropes.

It's in his blood, no giving up,

He's only falling down to learn get back up.

And though the changes come he's still the man that sees it done.

And now his fight is won he's never bowed to anyone and he won't,

That's who he is.

Come such a long, he's reflecting on his time.

Leads by example like a star that shines the night.

And he, he's a better man, I'd like to be him one day if I can.

Going home in the rain,

The wind so cold he fels a pain.

As far as all his dreams and hopes,

He's always been against the ropes.

It's in his blood, no giving up,

He's only falling down to learn get back up.
