The Grind

The Grind
 
Two minute drill up ahead we must grind.
Every inch and every yard we must find.
Time to start clawing at six points down.
We dig our cleats in the rain soaked ground,
And keep the chains forever on the move.
We’re the underdog with so much to prove.
 
We can do it. We can grind it out
With guts and courage and pride all about.
“Tis time for the tough to get up and fight.
The end zone is there within our sight.
As we stand in victory at the goal line,
The game is ours. We knew it all the time.
