I'm coming off the ropes
  (he's going down)
  He thinks I'm beat
  I'm coming off the ropes yea
  This ain't no retreat
  He thinks I'm going down
  For sure my head is spinning round
  When I straighten up
  But I'm going to knock him off his feet!
  (Wow suckerpunch!)
  
  I'm coming off the ropes
  (he's going down)
  Yes I'm coming off the ropes
  
  I'm coming off the ropes
  He made me angry now
  I only need to straighten up
  I'm going to show him how
  I can hear someone count to ten
  Seems like a lifetime,
  But I'll tell you when
  I know I'm safe down here
  So till then, must have been
  a lucky swing
  Two years ago,
  I would have not let him in
  
  I'm coming off the ropes
  (he's going down)
