Something i gave up on

I stand there, ready for anyone

Clearing my mind of everything, that isn't you

I know what to do and how I do it

I look at you and gain focus

I see my enemies, they surround me

I feel my body it's pounding

Through the shark infested waters

The pressure’s on, and I know well,

To fall behind will be farewell

 

 

Breakout just before the attack

Don't breathe before it

 

 

I will win in this pool

And I will win on the board
