Rope-A-Dope

Your jabs are annoying at best 
I look forward to slipping the rest
just give it a rest 
rest assure this is only a test 
and after I pass
I suggest you grab a vest 
just in case I return fire 
but that would mean gassing you up
with lighter fluid 
and lighting a match 
so why would I do it 
it's too much work 
and you don't deserve the attention
especially when your intention 
is to cause dissension
by creating an illusion 
which would generate confusion 
resulting in my exclusion
followed by my seclusion 
sounds like a plan 
a plan that will never evolve 
because I have a very strong chin
and an even stronger resolve
but keep jabbing 
maybe you'll improve on points
you'll just never prove your point
most likely you'll punch yourself out
George Foreman 
then you'll have to guard your grill
George Foreman 
because I've never been afraid to rumble
so let me speak Ali
then I'll go back to being humble
float like a butterfly
sting like a bee 
I don't have to be
what you want me to be 
I'm free to be me
