The mat is a stage, the crowd is a roar, The wrestler steps up, his heart starts to soar. He\u2019s trained for this moment, he\u2019s ready to fight, His muscles are tense, his eyes shining bright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The referee\u2019s whistle blows, the match has begun, The wrestler moves quickly, his opponent undone. He twists and he turns, he flips and he throws, His strength and his skill on full display as he goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sweat on his brow, the blood on his face, The wrestler keeps fighting, he won\u2019t lose this race. He\u2019s got the heart of a lion, the soul of a king, And he\u2019ll keep on wrestling, no matter what life brings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match is now over, the wrestler has won, His hand is raised high, his victory is done. He\u2019s proven his worth, he\u2019s shown what he\u2019s made of, And he\u2019ll keep on wrestling, with passion and love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
