The Underdog 

 An overachiever . . . .
Who waits patiently for the main event . . . .
Never gets his chance.
He never masters all of the elements . . . .
Or gets the credit that he deserves.
Still, the underdog lives on.
 
Through depression, exile, and failure . . . .
He stands beneath, the so called “greatness.”
And he lives through anger . . . .
In order to utilize perseverance.
The underdog will bark at the moon, with relentless aggression.
 
He never lets his guard down.
And he hides behind the lights.
He knows what’s wrong and what’s right.
Thus, he will continue to fight.
 
Since before his birth, and after his death . . . .
The underdog was bread to prepare.
Now, the main event that he has waited for since the beginning . . . .
Is in the palm of his hands.
The underground is his roots . . . .
But the mainstream is where his legacy will either become meaningful . . . .
Or nothing but a raindrop in the Nile.
 
Either way, the underdog lives . . . .
In a cage wired with raw flesh, and cold blood.
And still, he barks at the moon, with relentless aggression.
