It's not how you start,
it's how you finish
And it's not where you're from,
it's where you're at
Everybody gets knocked down,
Everybody gets knocked down,
How quick are you gonna' get up?
How quick are you gonna' get up?
Everybody gets knocked down,
Everybody gets knocked down,
How quick are you gonna' get up?
Just how are you gonna' get up?
Like Ali in the jungle,
Like Nelson in jail,
Like Simpson on the mountain,
With odds like that,
they were bound to fail
Like Keller in the darkness,
Like Adam's in the dock,
Like Ludwig Van,
how I loved that man,
Well, the guy went deaf
and didn't give a damn, no...
It's not where you are,
it's where you're going
Where are you going?
And it's not about the things you've done
it's what you're doing now
What are you doing now?
Everybody gets knocked down,
Everybody gets knocked down,
How quick are you gonna' get up?
How quick are you gonna' get up, now?
Everybody gets knocked down,
Everybody gets knocked down,
How quick are you gonna' get up?
Just how are you gonna' get up?
Like Ali in the jungle,
Like Nelson in jail,
Like Simpson on the mountain,
Well with odds like that,
they were bound to fail
Everybody gets knocked down,
Everybody gets knocked down,
How quick are you gonna' get up?
How quick are you gonna' get up?
"Ali in the Jungle"
