Lyrics
So ya been kicked in the shin
Endured a minor setback or hardship
Took one on the chin
Faced adversity or a direct hit
Sometimes you lose before you win
Experienced losses before achieving victory
Just smile in the meanwhile
Maintain a positive attitude during difficulties
At the bottom of the pile
In a challenging or unfavorable position
Third down and a mile
Metaphor for a challenging situation in football
Buckle up and try again
Stay resilient and attempt again
Pushin', keep pushin'
Emphasizing perseverance and resilience
Keep pushin', keep pushin'
-Keep pushin', keep pushin'
-Keep pushin'
-I feel that something's gonna go down
Sense of impending action or conflict
Don't say I didn't warn ya
Warning of anticipated events
Looks like we're headed for a showdown
Expectation of a confrontation or decisive event
Gonna get it on yeah
Ready for engagement or battle
Champions soon will be named
Future champions will emerge
Kings of the domain
Leaders of a particular field or area
And all the pain and all the gain
Hard work and struggles are valuable
Worth more than fortune and fame now
They hold more significance than wealth or fame
My oh my the stakes are high
Signifying high stakes and importance
Win or say goodbye
Win or face defeat
Now it all comes to this game
Culmination of efforts leading to this moment
Pushin', keep pushin'
Repeated emphasis on perseverance
Keep pushin', keep pushin'
-Keep pushin', keep pushin'
-Keep pushin'
-I feel that something's gonna go down
Sense of impending action or conflict (repeated)
Don't say I didn't warn ya
Reiteration of a prior warning
Looks like we're headed for a showdown
Anticipation of an approaching decisive event (repeated)
Gonna get it on yeah
Ready for engagement or battle (repeated)
Play that game like a neighbourhood side street
Describing readiness and lack of concern about the location of the confrontation
Anywhere you want it I don't care where we meet
-School yard, front yard, back yard, town park
-I don't think that you bite, all I hear is you bark
-To the body one shot
Metaphorical language for resilience, determination, and commitment
Wrecking ball can't be stopped
-In the lane, yeah we got this game
-Play through pain that's why we came
-When it's all laid on the line
When faced with the ultimate moment of truth
I can't settle for less than
Not settling for anything less than deserved or aspired
Everything that should be mine
Striving for the attainment of everything deserved
