MARTIAL ARTS Lyrics by TheRealYungPoison

DEFIANCE (Deluxe)

2024

[Verse]
Started back when I was only 7 years old
Back when Lukas had to make some friends
Scared to get on the mat, felt I didn't belong
I also had no friends
I'm a new face and there's like 50 people here, unsure of what to do so I sat on the edge for a whole dang year
Okay, it was only 2 weeks but when I got on the mat, I admit it, I had the most fun I've ever in my life
Maybe Taekwondo won't be so bad, so I keep on attending and getting better
My disciplinе is matching my energy, I ain't had no enеmies and it keeps on getting better, see
Passed my first five testings no prollem
But then corona hit, things were bad and I was bored
Changed my name and I was removed from the board
Like, I was getting real lazy, I finally missed a testing, it's crazy how
I was on the verge of quitting
Didn't want to do anything, 'cause I kept on forgetting
Where would I be, without this thing?
Probably nowhere near where I am now
But I finally got back on my grind
And I never stopped going on my grind, until I reached my peak
At red belt was when things really changed for me, see
There's this girl who pops in my life
She's beautiful and when she's near me, my stomach's tight
Barely breathing just looking to find a sequence because if she ever asks me to spar, I'm done
I spar her and she kicks me in the face, spark up the emotions I've worked so hard to keep hidden
Hugged me afterwards, I felt like I was in heaven, reddening cheeks but for the betterment, yeah
But for some reason, for months on end, I tried to keep my feelings hidden
Ignored her and was rude to her for really no reason but then
It's time to test for the black belt, no words could describe how I felt when I pushed through and I passed
Didn't break the brick, but that's for another day
I started talking to her, and started sparring with her
To the point where we talked almost every class, worked up the courage and bravely asked for her number and she said yes
So excited so I had to be quiet, or you'd hear the tremble in my voice, adrenaline maxed out (Maxed out)
We been talking and talking and talking and talking an- you get the point, we been talking and talking
Yeah, she helped me now I'm not so inside, before I was scared to utter a word
I was like dead silent and almost dead inside
Kinda lonely when I had no friends, oh my
But, she turned things around for me
Now I have a lot of friends, taekwondo I'm conquering and I can't help but feel like
She changed my life
Fast forward and I broke my brick
I feel so proud and I realize that was a big accomplishment
Still never went out to celebrate, but that's fine
There's another girl that likes me, I have friends, and I am grinding
Having so much fun doing what I love, I'm kinda glad that I kept it up, perhaps my luck is not so bad after all, look
I'm glad to be a martial artist
Don't know where I'd be right now if I wasn't, so I gotta be honest
This is my life
And I love it
