Are you okay?
Yeah, I'm good.
Lola Williams just
hits differently.
I got a little too
excited about that W.
Right, right.
Come on.
Just, just need a minute.
All right.
I know that look.
You do, huh?
Yeah.
Mm.
I can't believe it's
been a year already.
Seems like it was
just yesterday,
we were having a deep
conversation after my last fight,
and next day, boom.
Car accident.
Sometimes wonder what
life's tryna teach me.
I know.
And she was one of the
greatest people I'd ever met.
But you know what?
She raised an amazing son.
Thanks, Lo. You've been
here for me since the start.
Honestly, I don't think
I would've been able
to handle any of this
stuff without you.
Well, we're a team and I'll
always be here for you, David.
You helped me get through
such a challenging
time in my life,
and you changed my
whole world around.
Maybe it's time you let someone
help you change your wrists.
All right.
I wouldn't want anyone
else but you by my side.
You're amazing, Lola Williams.
Well, you know.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Look, I thought that
I, I'm sorry. I
Are you sure you wanna do this?
Yeah.
Yeah?
All I see is blessings,
got no time for stressin'
Don't believe in failures in
my life, it's only lessons
They just making room
for what I'm on now
I don't got a clue, but I
know the one who does know how
Oh, wow
It's like I'm learning
the game with the maker
I already know now
Destiny has my name,
know it's coming
It'll never go out
I know that we all
gonna be all right
We gone make it through
if it takes us all night
You look ready.
You look ready.
How ready are you? Let's see.
Let's see. Let's see.
No, no, no, no, no!
What is this?
Well, I know you've been
too busy to go on a real date,
so I wanted to set up a
little picnic.
You did this?
I did, I did.
Come on. Come on.
Oh my goodness.
You like?
I like.
Ooh, okay. Yeah.
Check it out.
Oh, can you pass me one?
Yeah. Yeah.
Thank you.
Oh.
I spoke to the promoter
of Queen of the Ring.
Mm hmm?
Apparently, your
opponent had to drop out.
She broke her hand
during training.
- Ouch
- So this is your
new opponent now.
This video was
uploaded this morning.
It already has a
hundred thousand views.
Lola.
I'm the best.
The only reason Lola is champion
is cause she hasn't met me yet.
Lola ain't shit.
Well, that should
be interesting.
She walked outta
frame and everything.
Felt like I was watching a
pro wrestling match.
So extra.
Hey babe, look, you
should take this seriously.
This could be a huge
opportunity for you.
Hold up. Wait.
What?
Babe?
What? Like I
can't call you that?
Well, you can call me Lola.
Okay.
I see this is gonna
be a challenge.
And you thought I
was gonna be easy?
Whoa. Lola, no.
Whoa, that's not
what I'm saying.
Then what are you saying?
I'm just saying
it's, I'm, it's, I'm
I'm what? You gotta
speak faster, David.
Lola.
Look, I don't think
you're easy in any way.
And that's why
That's why, what David?
That's why I want
us to be together.
What?
Yeah.
I love you, Lola Williams.
I have for some time now.
I don't want that to
be a one night thing.
Great.
The one time I want you
to say something back,
you say nothing.
Is everything okay?
Everything's fine. I just
You just, what?
I feel like I
wanna knock you out.
What?
What, what are you,
what are you doing?
You wanna take our relationship
- What? I'm just
- to the, that level?
Hey, hey, look, I
had to shoot my shot.
I don't know about
this stage right now.
What do you mean you don't know?
Look, you know, I'm trying
to roll with the punches
and take us to the next round.
Oh, stop. Stop.
I was barking on that.
Did you practice that?
- I did. I did. I did.
- Oh my god.
You like leaned in with it
and you I did, I was decked out
I was in lean.
Uh
No.
No? Okay.
Oh, wow.
So, I'm willing to give
this a try if you are.
I don't know if
I'm ready for this.
It's okay.
I ain't going nowhere.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
- I mean, you got a candle
- I did.
- In the summertime.
- I did. I did.
Were we supposed
to light this thing?
I don't know. I don't.
I just threw it in there
with the rest of the stuff.
- Lola.
- Whoa. Hey
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Yeah, you good?
Yeah, I'm good, just
working on the next fight.
You know how that go.
But I wanted to let you know
that you motivated me
to continue to fight.
My mother, she died of breast
cancer a couple years ago.
And, but she fought
all the way to the end.
I've honestly never seen anybody
fight like my mother fought.
And that reminded me of you.
I mean, I just want you to
keep doing what you're doing,
because you're out here
motivating people like me.
And you don't even
know it sometimes.
I, yeah, you're right.
I didn't.
So I just wanted to let
you know I'm watching,
and the whole world
is watching you.
Keep it up.
Thank you, man.
I appreciate it.
And hey, you looking
good, you know?
All right, you guys.
I've brought y'all to the gym
because I know y'all
like boxing, right?
You like boxing, right?
All right.
And you gonna know
of the finger cells
in three different
elements, okay?
So this girl will show
you self defense, okay?
Show you how to protect yourself
and everything
that you do, right?
Wait, is that Lola?
Hi!
Oh my god, thank
you guys so much!
Wow. What a greeting!
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
Oh, we doing
Thank you guys for coming.
Thanks for having us.
- Wow. Y'all look beautiful.
- Wow.
You are beautiful.
Aw, thank you.
I mean, you don't all look
quite dressed for boxing.
Oh, we
can go. We can go.
Okay, ladies, so
Miss Lola has took time
outta her schedule today to
come and hear your stories.
So, let's share.
My name is Jessica.
Hi, Jessica.
Hi.
Lola, Jessica wants
to be a boxer also.
Oh, okay.
Why do you wanna be a boxer?
To defend myself.
Why do you feel like you
need to defend yourself?
From men who abused
me in the past.
Friends of my dad
that he worked for,
they would threaten me
that they'll fire him
if I don't do what they say.
And that I'll lose my home
and end up on the street.
I'm so sorry to hear that.
Hi, I'm Michelle.
Lola, because of you,
I got outta depression.
And also because of you,
now I know that I'm enough.
Lola, meeting you today
has made me realize
anything is possible.
Thank you.
Watching you throughout the
years has really inspired me
to take my power back.
Because when I was a little
girl, my dad used to molest me,
and it made me
feel so worthless,
and so scared all the time.
But I'm not scared
anymore because of you.
So, thank you.
Lola, this is my daughter, Lisa.
She's so inspired by you.
Lisa, don't be shy.
Tell her how you feel.
Stop it, mom.
Okay, mom.
Come on, Lisa.
All right. Hi.
You inspire me to
go for my dreams.
You motivate me to be
the best that I can be.
Wow.
Thank you guys, for really
sharing your stories.
It takes a lot of courage
to come to a group like this
and speak your truth.
It takes a lot of power within
to stand here in front of
others and share like that.
I didn't know how to handle the
feelings that I was feeling,
and I too was abused.
It made me feel powerless.
Like I didn't know how to
communicate or tell anyone
what I was going through,
because I wasn't like you.
I didn't have the courage.
I was not the Lola that you
see here with you right now.
My life was spiraling
out of control.
I was out with
friends all the time,
I was drinking,
I had no purpose.
And one day, went to this
club, and all of a sudden,
this guy came behind me
into the ladies' room,
and he caught me off
guard, and he attacked me.
And I didn't know what to do.
I didn't know how
to defend myself.
I didn't have the tools.
I wasn't equipped.
He overpowered me.
That stays with me every day.
So how do you cope with it?
That's a great
question, Jessica.
Boxing.
Boxing saved my life,
because it made
me feel empowered.
It made me feel strong.
It made me feel like
I can do anything.
It made me fearless.
It's because I've worked on
me. I feel like a champion.
That's how I was able
to overcome all of it.
That's what I want you guys
to take away from this
session here today.
I'm so proud of each of you.
I'm proud because you have the
courage that I didn't have.
So, if you're looking at
me and I'm looking at you,
I'm like, you're starting
off better than me.
So, I expect you to
be better than me.
Everybody say, "I'm a champion."
I'm a champion.
Ah. Say it like you
mean it. "I'm a champion."
I'm a champion!
Say, "I am enough."
I'm enough!
That's right. You are.
You are enough.
Do you believe that?
Yes.
Okay, I'm sorry. I know.
Y'all got me in here crying.
This was not a part of the plan.
Bring it in, bring
it in. Bring it in.
One, two.
One, two.
There we go. There we go.
Move. Move.
Gimme that four again.
That four?
The one, two, four,
or just the four?
Let's work on
the one, two, four.
All right, let's go.
One more time.
There we go. There we go.
All right.
Come on, Lola. Come on.
Tag him, let's get it.
Come on, head
movement, foot movement,
let's get it in.
Come on, let's go.
You punch, head movement,
slide away.
Slap for me.
Come on, slap for me.
Let's get it in.
Four.
Circle left, one, two, one, two.
Yeah.
One, two. One, two.
Ah, no, Lola.
Lola, what are you doing?
She needs to move that head!
No, she needs to
move those feet.
What have I been drilling
since I've been here?
Move your feet,
move your feet, move your feet.
Move your feet. Move your feet.
Do I look like I'm laughing?
The fight is tomorrow night.
Stop.
No, cause you asked for my help.
I didn't ask for yours.
Okay.
And you two, go on over there
and do it like I showed you.
Yes, ma'am.
Yes, ma'am.
You two, come closer.
Yes, ma'am.
Y'all supposed to be the best.
- Definitely.
- We the best.
Then act like it.
You can't play with
them, either of them.
Look, they need you,
especially David.
And I got my own family,
my own responsibilities
I gotta handle.
Yeah.
For y'all, you two
gonna be here every day.
We hear you.
I hope so.
- We got you, Sash.
- We got you.
- All right.
- Got you.
Now let's just win this fight!
All right.
Let's do this. Let's
do this. Let's go.
- Come on.
- Let's go. Let's go.
Ladies and gentlemen,
it's go time.
Introducing first, the
challenger in the black corner,
from Brooklyn, New York,
12 wins by KO,
I present to you,
Trina 'Doomsday' Jackson.
And in the red corner,
with an equally
impressive amateur record
of five wins by KO, zero losses,
the reigning, defending
Queen of the Ring,
Lola Williams.
You hit like a bitch.
Stop running, fight me.
Come on,
Lola. You got this.
Fight!
Come on, change numbers on her.
No more holding.
She was on me, ref.
Fight!
You weak. I smell
blood all over you.
Back, back, back.
One, two, three.
Out. Out. Out.
Medic. Medic. Medic.
Lola, sit up and
breathe. Breathe, Lola.
Good. Breathe. Breathe in.
And the winner by knockout,
the new Queen of the Ring,
Trina 'Doomsday' Jackso
Yay!
Yes.
I'm the champ. This is my belt.
I knew I could do it.
I'm so happy right now.
Yes.
Yes, honey. And whose,
whose, whose ass did you whoop?
Lola who? I'm the champ now.
It's about Trina.
It's Trina's time.
And nobody's gonna win
this belt back from me.
Amen. Can we say the
champ is here, what?
Doc. How's my baby girl?
She's stable.
She suffered a bit of
tinnitus, nothing major.
Tinnitus? What's that?
She explained that
she's a boxer, correct?
Mm hmm.
Well, she took quite a
few tough blows to the head.
Tinnitus is not really a
condition, but a symptom.
So many things could
have gone wrong.
She really should not have
been fighting while pregnant.
Pregnant?
You didn't know.
They don't know.
How?
Can we see her, please?
Yes, but she specifically
asked to see David first.
Is he here?
That's me, doc.
Please come with me.
Everyone, wait here momentarily.
Well, I'll be damned.
This some bullshit.
Uh-uh.
John, not right now.
Come on, let's just wait.
Let's wait.
Wait.
Hey.
I can't believe I lost my title.
That's the least of
your worries right now.
Your health is what matters.
Least of my worries?
David, I lost my belt.
You'll get another shot, Lola.
Your health comes first.
Just one step at a time.
I was supposed to go pro
after that fight. You know that.
Well, that's gonna have to
be on pause for right now.
The doc told me you're pregnant.
Why didn't you say anything?
I'm just as surprised
as you are. Me, pregnant?
I would've never thought in a
million years I'd be pregnant.
I asked him about aborting it.
Without consulting me?
Oh, David, it's my body. I
get to do it what I please.
You know, you can't
be this selfish, Lola.
It's my child, too.
David, you know I can't
have a baby right now.
Where are you going?
You know what?
Why do you insist on
doing selfish things, huh?
This is serious,
Lola. I'm serious.
I'm serious about you, about us.
This is not a game.
I am not a game.
I don't know your past, but
if you'd just let me in,
you will see that I
would die for you.
Ever since the moment I met you,
I knew that you
were the one for me.
David.
I love you, Lola.
I love you.
Lola.
Do you love me?
I mean, you know I've
always been attracted to you.
We've kind of had this
Lola, just answer
the damn question.
Yes. I
You do?
Yes, I love you. You already
Yes
Okay. Okay.
Okay. Okay.
Oh my. Oh, what, what are
you, what are you doing?
Well, I, I was, I was gonna
wait until after the fight,
but, you know, well, it's
no time like the present.
Lola. Lola Williams.
Will you marry me?
Are you serious?
Yes, I'm serious.
I'm doing this
because I love you.
You really do.
Yeah. Mm-hmm. Always.
Okay. Ask me again.
Okay.
Lola Williams,
will you be my wife?
Yes?
Yeah.
Yes?
Yeah. I will.
Yes.
Yes.
Oh my
Oh, I love you.
Yeah, girl. She fell for
everything I baited her with,
the jab, the uppercut.
I'm like, "Damn."
But you know what?
I think it took me too
long to knock her out.
Next time I fight her,
I'ma knock her out
in the first round.
They gonna call me
the knockout queen.
Yo. Yo, you Trina.
You one that knocked out
Lola like it was nothing.
Oh, you's a fan.
Let's get you, let's
get you a picture.
I know what you want.
I don't know, man.
I heard she was pregnant.
If she wasn't, Trina
would've got them hands.
You know what I'm saying?
Don't say that.
That's what they sayin'.
What are you talking
about? Who told you that lie?
Everybody know.
It's on social media.
Social media don't know shit.
Trina 'Doomsday', the
greatest woman boxer ever.
Don't ever disrespect me.
You got it.
I ain't got time today, sucker.
Knock yo ass out.
Damn.
Yo.
Supposed to be the
happiest day of my life.
We have come together today
for this joyous occasion
for Lola Williams
and David Morehouse
to join themselves together
on this special, special day.
And the bride and
the groom have chosen
to say their own vows.
Lola.
David Morehouse, thank you.
It's because of you that
I know what love is.
I've never felt love like this
until you came into my life.
You've created such
a safe space for me
to be able to fall
in love with you.
I really cherish what we have.
And I vow to honor you, to
always be there for you,
to support you, and to always
have your back no matter what.
Lola Williams,
I vow to love, and
cherish and honor,
protect, and always be there,
no matter what
adversity we face.
From the moment I saw you,
that fighting spirit
that you have,
I was drawn to you.
You are my heart, queen.
And I'm going to love
you from dusk until dawn.
Always. I love you.
I love you, too.
Can we have the rings, please?
With this ring,
With this ring.
I be we'd.
I be we'd.
In the name of the father.
In the name of the father.
And the son.

sister's biggest day.
Mm hmm.
My sister is one of
the most beautiful woman
that I've ever seen.
And not a lot of people can
handle you. Cheers, David.
She is so strong and has
a fire like no other.
And ladies, not a lot of men
can handle that type of heat.
So, I love you so much.
David, I'm glad to
call you my brother.
And I can't wait to see
the future with you two.
Welcome to the
family, and cheers.
Cheers.
Oh, I love you too.
Yes, yes. Cheers
to this bitch.
Are y'all serious?
All of y'all are just sitting
here, standing around,
looking at the
newly formed Lola.
Damn, I guess the rumor is true.
You are pretty knocked up.
I'm a little offended, Lola.
No invite to your wedding?
People going around saying
that I won the fight
was because you was pregnant.
Let's show the world
you ain't nothing
but a punk ass bitch
who play boxing.
I'm offering you to rematch.
Soon as you drop that baby,
meet me inside the ring.
Any time, any place.
Little girl, you done chose
the wrong place
at the wrong time.
About to get an ass whooping
of a different kind. Uh-huh.
Get your ass outta here
Oh. Mr. Wyman West.
Before we throw you out.
Mr. Trainer,
former champion.

a work workout here.
What's the problem?
Baby, you're pregnant.
You should be home resting.
Babe, plenty of women
train while they're pregnant.
It's healthy.
Yeah. Not the way you train.
You're training like you're
prepping for a fight, babe.
It's dangerous.
I gotta stay healthy, babe.
I'm not just gonna
stay at home all day.
I'm just pregnant.
The baby's fine.
Wow. Really? Just pregnant.
All right. I'm, I'm
not gonna argue.
Just, just take
it light, please.
Fine.
Oh, we got that appointment
with the realtor in an hour.
Oh, shoot, man.
I forgot.
Well, can you just
- Babe, we gotta see realtor-
- Okay, okay, okay.
In an hour.
Well, let me just
get one more round in.
Lola, please. Come on.
We not gonna get
another one right now.
I'm coming.
Thanks, guys.
Hi.
Hi.
Are you guys familiar with
the area and the architects?
Yes, we are.
Great. I'm sure you're
gonna love the home.
Thank you so much.
Absolutely.
So, this
house was built in 2015.
It offers a lot of natural
sunlight in the inside,
lots of storage space,
and the second floor is gonna
be a blessing for the baby.
Let's go that way.
So, I think you are going
to love this kitchen area,
because I know that you do a
lot of hosting, entertaining,
so we have our granite
countertops, lots of cabinet space,
oven here, stove
top over this way.
I know that you were talking
about that stove top.
So, we have that, and we have
a wine cooler over this way.
I mean, he does all the cooking.
Oh, okay.
I do. I do.
What do you think?
Can we even afford it?
Let me worry about that.
But you're the one who will
be home most of the time,
so it's whatever you want.
Well, whatever we decide,
we have to make it quick.
It would be really hard
trying to move with a baby.
Yeah.
I like it.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Reminds me of the home
I once grew up in.
I could see two or three kids
running around here, you know?
Three?
Yeah. You don't want more?
I wanna focus on
the one that we have.
Of course. Mm.
So?
If you like it, I like it.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Okay.
We buying a house.
Hey, baby girl.
Hey, daddy.
Oh, man.
Baby, what's wrong?
Is it the baby?
Yeah.
I'm gonna get the car.
Oh, no, no, no. Dad,
no. It's not like that.
Whew. Thank the
Lord. Phew. Mm.
Everything is just
moving so fast, you know?
That's called growing
up, baby girl.
I know that. But I just
would've never thought
that I would've been
the one to have a baby,
and get married, and to a man?
Hmm.
I mean, don't get me
wrong, I love David.
But what if I'm not good enough?
You know, I'm not used
to seeing you like this.
I know.
Mama, I'm serious.
I don't know that I can do this.
You can.
I was close to aborting it.
I'm scared that I won't
be a good enough mother
for this child.
And it's not funny.
Well, aborting it,
it's too late for that.
Listen sweetheart, I
understand how you feel,
but at the end of the day,
you made the decision.
Now, neither your father nor
I could tell you what to do.
But you are a grown woman now.
You will always be our baby,
but Lola, now it's time for you
to start taking responsibility.
You're gonna be fine, baby.
Yeah, I agree with your mother.
I mean, look how
far you've come.
Yeah.
I mean, you think we
got this way overnight,
but you know what saved us?
Was time.
Yes.
So all you gotta do
is just give yourself some time.
But time heals all wounds.
You understand, baby girl?
Guess I'll give it time.
That's it. Yep.
You'll do well.
Right?
Yeah.
Man. I don't know
who's expecting.
Yeah, I'm expecting one too.
Y'all need help with the bill?
Cause this hot as hell in here.
It's just you.
Let's go.
What ya got, old man?
- Come on, Ray.
- Come on, man.
Give me that double one.
No pain.
There we go.
There you go.
There you go.
Okay.
Let's get it.
Ah. Come on, give it to me.
One, two.
You gone took my arm off, boy.
Yep. You still got it, Ray,
you still got it.
Lola. Where you been?
Cause you trying to
get back in the gym
before you have that baby?
Hm, I wish. And I
just missed being here.
Miss you too, love.
Hey, what's up baby?
What's up, double trouble?
Hey to you too, Ray.
What are you doing here?
I just wanted to stop by.
Yeah, but you supposed
to be home relaxing.
And doing what?
Relaxing, having your feet
up. You are pregnant, you know?
- Babe.
- And the doctor said
you should be getting rest.
Babe, I can come by the
gym. I miss being here.
Babe, please.
Hold on. Hold on.
What? What?
Babe, you okay?
Yes. I got this
really sharp pain.
- Hey, call for help.
- Oh my god.
- Call for help.
- Oh my god.
We should go to the hospital.
Okay. Okay. I got you.
Wait. Is my water breaking?
You'll be okay. Come on, babe.
- Is my water breaking?
- I got you. I got you, baby.
- Oh god.
- I got you. I got you.
Come on. Come on.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
Oh, but it's coming. It's coming.
It's coming. It's coming.
Let me get a doctor.
Yes, you get a doctor.
Please, get me a doctor.
Please. Thank you.
You're doing good.
Just breathe.
How is it going?
Oh, doc. Can you please
just get this baby outta me?
Please, please, please, please.
Doc, my wife is in pain.
It's been 10 hours,
and still the baby's heart rate
is not where I would
like for it to be.
And because you're five
centimeters dilated,
I think we need
to do a C-section.
C-section?
No. Doc, we really
wanna do this naturally.
No, no, no.
I don't wanna do a C-section.
I know, baby.
- Babe, I don't wanna.
- I know.
- We talked about this.
- I know. I know
- I don't wanna do it.
- My main concern
is the baby's heart rate.
I got another one. Got
another one. Got another coming.
Okay. Okay.
Talk to me. Talk
to me. Talk to me.
I don't wanna do it.
- You don't have to, baby.
- I'm not gonna
be able to fight.
You don't have to.
You don't have to.
I'm not gonna be able
to get back in the ring.
You don't have to.
Baby, breathe. Just
breathe. Breathe.
I'm here, okay?
It's whatever you
want to do, okay?
Okay.
- All right?
- Okay.
- I'm here. I'm here with you.
- I don't know. I don't know.
I'm here with you.
Is that it?
That, that's, that's the
only thing we can do?
That's, that's, that's the
only, only thing we can do?
That's the only thing.
Oh god.
It's okay.
- I don't wanna do it.
- It's okay.
You are so beautiful.
Yes, you are. Yes, you are.
Hey, mommy's up.
How are you?
That I'm wore out.
I know, I know, I know.
You were amazing.
I didn't want to the C-section.
I know, I know. I know.
I love you.
I'm a dad.
Dad.
Thank you.
You're gonna be an amazing dad.
Well, that's obvious.
See, this is
That's why I don't
give you compliments.
Don't make me laugh.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Can you believe it?
What are we gonna name her?
Well, I was thinking
about after my grandmother.
Lily.
Lily.
Mm hmm.
I like that.
You do?
Okay.
Hey Lily, I'm your dad.
It's daddy and mommy.
Oh, Lily.
Morning.
How'd you sleep?
Okay.
Uh-huh. Good.
I won't be working
a full day today.
Well, what time
will you be home?
Two or three.
We've been getting requests
for our self-defense course.
Wanna start it up again.
Mm. Trying to
replace me already?
Never, champ.
Come here.
You look amazing.
I'm not the champ anymore.
Well, you are to
that little girl.
Hey, call if you need me.
Love you.
Love you.
God, please, please, please.
Please, god, please.
Just be quiet.
Please, can't you please
just give 10 minutes, baby.
Please, just give mommy
10 minutes, please.
Please, just shut up.
Oh, god. Shut up.
Shut up. Shut up.
Shut up. Shut up. Shut up.
Hey, babe.
Don't you hear her crying?
What, you coming in get a kiss?
Go and kiss your child
and make sure she okay.
Go check on her.
Okay. Okay.
Calm down.
You hear she crying.
Don't make no sense gonna
come in here. "Hey, hey."
Get your lips away from
me. Go check on your baby.
No damn sense.
Babe, what's, what's
Oh, hey.
What are you doing?
Did you really just pick
her up out of the crib?
What? You told me
I said go check on
her, go tend on her.
Make sure she's good.
Don't
She finally calmed down.
When you, by the
time you got there,
she wasn't even
screaming anymore.
So why would you
then pick her up?
That makes no sense to me.
- You just need to breathe.
- Can you please
go put her back?
Okay.
Go put her back.
Okay. Okay.
Mommy's not feeling well.
Mm hmm. But Daddy
loves you. Yes.
Daddy loves you. Mm hmm.
What's going on?
Calm down.
Close the door.
Hey, you wanna talk to
me and leave the door open
so she can continue hearing?
What are you You just calm down.
Oh, I know you did
not walk into this house
and tell me to calm down.
Do not put calm and down in
the same sentence together
to me again ever, David.
Please don't do it.
I gotta get outta
this house, David.
I need a job. I need
a part-time job.
I need something on the
nights and weekends.
I need something.
Okay.
Okay. Just breathe.
I make enough money, babe.
This is not about the money.
What is this about?
I used to be able to go anywhere
and do anything I wanted to do.
Whatever I wanted to do, I
could get up and just go do it.
I had so much
excitement in my life.
- Okay, but your job
- And now I just feel
so useless.
Baby. Your job is more
important than mine.
You're taking care of our child.
Yeah, but it
doesn't feel like it.
But it is. And a job?
That's just gonna make you
more tired, more stressed out.
And for what?
Look, I'm bringing
home the paper.
That's what I do,
and I'm doing it.
I don't see the
point in you working.
Because I feel
trapped in this house.
What did you, you
don't like the house?
It's, it's not a
house. It's an island.
I'm just strapped on
an island by myself
with a screaming hyena,
all day long, David.
I miss talking. I
miss my friends.
I miss going to the gym.
I miss my life.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
You know, one moment,
you don't want to talk,
and now you miss talking.
I don't understand. I don't.
It's like you
never understand me.
But listen, babe, but if, if
taking on more responsibility
is gonna make it better, okay.
Okay. Let's, let's do it.
Okay.
Thank you, because I really
feel like this will help, David.
Okay.
I need this.
Come here.
Come on. We'll look at
this together, all right?
Okay.
All right. Which one?
This one?
Mm hmm.
Yeah?
Yeah, that one.
All right. If you
wanna do that, okay.
You don't think
I'll be good at it?
No, no. You'll be
great. You'll be great.
I can be good at
whatever it is I wanna do.
Thank you very much.
Yes, yes, you can.
Thank you for the
greeting you gave me.
Better greeting?
Mm hmm.
Lola.
You wouldn't happen to be Queen
of the Ring Lola, would you?
Yes.
Yeah, I recognize you now.
I was at that fight, the one
against, what was her name?
Azora.
Azora.
You were great.
Thank you.
Shit. I would've
thought you would go pro.
What you doing here?
Just changing gears. Needed
to switch career paths.
As a waitress?
I have a daughter now,
wanted to avoid losing
anymore brain cells.
True. That whole CTE stuff.
I'll tell you, I
have two boys myself.
I love football, but I
would have a hard time
pushing them down that path now.
Exactly.
Still, I think you
got what it take.
Well, that's behind me now.
I appreciate it, though.
Yeah? Well, we would
love to have you here.
You could bring a
lot of attention.
When can you start?
Now.
Okay.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Order up!
What's wrong with
this one now? Lola?
What happened?
It was supposed to be no cheese.
Then why is there cheese?
Well, he doesn't want the
cheese, so can you take it off?
Okay, then why did you write it?
I fucked up, okay?
Can you please just
take the cheese off?
No, I cannot take
the cheese off.
I mean, your memory
is shot, girl.
You've been hit in the head a
little bit too much.
It's shot.
My memory is fine.
Can one of you guys please
just take the damn cheese off?
It's not that big of a deal.
It actually is that big of
a deal, because we're working.
Order up. Hand her that, please.
I don't get it. Lola,
I said order up.
Well, I have to serve these.
Yeah, you can't
handle this one too?
I mean, I thought you
was a champ.
I thought you was a champ.
You like what I did
with that one?
I mean, if you can't handle it,
I can get Anthony
here to do it for you.
You know, wouldn't want
you messing up your wrist.
I got it.
Yeah, you got this. Uh-huh.
Wait a sec. Oh. Oh. Oh.
Oh.
- Oh my.
- Wow.
Oh, that's the TKO right there.
Yeah. Yeah.
You, go help her, please.
Please, go help her.
Hey, what's going on?
Hi.
Can we get a table for two?
Yeah. Let's see.
And it's our anniversary,
so can we get the best table?
Sure. Okay. Happy anniversary.
Thank you, thank you.
Can you seat them at table four?
Thank you for calling Escovich.
Okay. What? How
many?
Okay. I have you down for two.
Thank you.
Hi.
Hey, how you doing?
Hi. You guys
have a reservation?
Yes. Table for two. Michael.
Michael. Okay, Michael.
I don't see you down here.
What? What you mean
you don't see it there?
Definitely should be there.
3:00 p.m.?
I have a Michelle,
but that's for 6:00 p.m.
Did you call?
Absolutely.
- Okay.
- We come here all the time.
Yeah, all the time.
Oh, okay. No, no problem.
Let me just double check.
Let me, let me
see what I can do.
Can you go get your manager?
Because we not about to stand
here and do this right now.
I, I, I can take
care of it. No problem.
Yeah, I can seat
you now. So sorry.
Thank you very much.
Okay. Seat them at table nine.
Talk to me nice. Thank you.
Surprise.
Trina.
So, this is what
it's come to, huh?
Ironic.
Last time in the ring,
I served your ass,
and now look at you, serving me.
Didn't I tell you
any time, any place?
Seem like after the beat down,
you ain't got nothing left.
You make me sick.
Take me to my seat.
Here you go.
Here you go, ma'am.
I don't eat cheese.
I will get that fixed for you.
Get her.
Sorry about that.
Thank you.
How'd you get the order wrong?
Wake up. You can't
do shit right.
You is not about to walk
past me again without my food.
Is that my food?
No, ma'am, but I
can get it for you right now.
Like, how long does it
take for you to bring it out?
You, it's been a problem
with you since I walked in.
What's up with you?
Yeah.
Is it a bad day?
Are you gonna get her food?
Ma'am, I will get
your food right now.
Okay? Thank you.
Okay. Thank you.
Quicker!
I don't know who trained you.
I come here all the time, and
I've never dealt with this.
You're still here.
Okay, okay. I'll-
You should leave.
You should leave.
Trina, shut up.
I'll get the food right away.
There's no reason to be irate.
Y'all having a problem too?
There's no
reason to be irate, ma'am.
I'll take care of it now.
No reason. What, I'm hungry.
He gave me no-
She don't respect women.
Get outta here. Go get
her food. You still here.
Trina, shut the fuck up.
And ma'am, What?
I will get your
food. Calm down.
Don't tell me to calm down.
- Waitress, please
- Why? What's the
Why you gotta be all
loud in here anyway?
Just shut up.
Why I gotta be all loud?
You clearly need to make
a different profession.
Fuck you and your food!
No, fuck you!
I'll get your fucking food.
Go right ahead,
and I promise you, you won't
be working after tonight.
I am so sorry. She's new here.
Look, we got you the
best seat in the house,
and your meal is on the house.
Y'all need to double
check on the people
that y'all hiring because
she's rude as fuck.
- Please.
- I will take care
I think you should fire her.
I'll take care of it.
No, she does need to be fired.
After everything that happened.
- Okay.
- Very much.
Miss Cinthy, let me explain.
Explain nothing.
You cursed the customer.
That's unacceptable.
I know, but I'm sorry.
It won't happen again.
No, it won't happen
again because you're fired.
What? But you saw
how rude she was.
Yeah, I saw that,
but you can't go around
cursing people out because
they're rude to you.
Fuck.
You gotta be above.
Okay. All right.
Can I at least finish the
day? Like I need this job.
You know that.
I'm afraid not.
You're not cut out
for this kind of work.
You need patience, a lot
of patience, kindness.
You're You're a killer.
What you said to her? They
landed, okay? They landed.
What I need for you to do
is consider getting
back into the ring.
Consider that.
All right. What you got,
Lola?
All right, all right.
Shit, I feel good. All right.
Hm.
Any new female fighters?
They too pretty.
So, nobody worth training?
No one has the fire you had.
Had.
Ouch.
You know, I was thinking
about, you know,
picking it back up again.
What you think?
Not with those abs, you won't.
My incision is healed.
I don't give a
damn what they say.
Routine surgery or not,
they cut open your abdomen.
They gotta be fast enough to
hit me in the stomach first.
Oh, they will be.
Especially with all that
weight you done put on you.
I can burn this off.
Forget it, Lola. You
had a C-section, okay?
By the time that fully heals,
you'll be way past your prime.
So you don't believe
in me at all, huh?
You know, Diane
once told me about
women having to prove to
the world that we're human.
What's your motto?
Cause it seem like you don't
believe in none of that shit.
But I can't let nobody stop me
from being who I'm
supposed to be.
Come on. Damn.
What?
You don't want
anybody to stop you
from being who you are.
I just stopped your
ass with one punch.
That was a sucker punch.
What do you think
Trina is gonna do?
Remember, I'm not gonna be
able to be there for that.
Go home, Lola.
Your family is waiting for you.
Don't, don't do this,
Sasha. Sasha, don't do this.
Shit.
I need this.
Lola who?
I'm the champ. This is my belt.
I knew I could do it.
I'm so happy right now.
It's Trina time.
And nobody's gonna win
this belt back from me.
Why would you stop
by the other night?
You wanna start boxing again?
Lola, that's just crazy.
It's crazy to think I'm
capable of doing anything else.
Do you wanna end up
in the hospital again?
So you don't think
I can take a hit?
You know many times I've
been hit throughout my life?
I always get back up.
It's what I do.
I can't go through
that again, Lola.
Rushing you to the hospital
was the scariest
moment of my life.
I can't, I can't do that again.
Okay. All right.
Do you remember
when we first met?
I was drifting
around, getting drunk,
getting myself into trouble.
I had no real purpose
before boxing.
And you helped me with that.
It's who I am, baby.
Baby, it's not about you
anymore. It's about us.
What you do affects us all.
You have to think about
what's best for Lily.
You don't think I think
about what's best for Lily?
Well, what do you think is best?
Being home, being
there, being safe.
Being home.
Okay, fine.
If that makes you happy.
It would.
It would.
Okay.
Thank you.
Yo, Ray, let me tell
you one thing, okay?
The kids of these days do not
respect the history of boxing.
You understand?
I mean, if they don't
know where they've been,
how the hell they
know where they go?
You right, you right.
I mean we got the
great Charles Burley
and the Black Murderers' Row.
You got a kid that you
training that reminds me of him.
Exactly. Then
you got Willie Pep
- Yes, sir.
- And the great Rocky Marciano
You right.
And my favorite, the
great Jersey Joe Walcott.
Cake walk, baby.
Yes, sir.
Lola!
- Hey, hey.
- What's up?
- Oh my goodness.
- Big trouble, little trouble.
What's up?
Oh, please.
Hey, Ray.
Hey, hey, hey.
- See you, homeboy.
- What's going on?
- See you, homeboy.
- Good, how y'all doing?
We good. We good.
Ah, I miss you guys.
You done brought the
future champ to see us.
That's right.
You ready to start training?
I am. That's why I'm here.
Does David know?
David wouldn't approve, Ray.
He's still upset about how
I went behind his
back last time.
Damn, man. Look it, man.
He's just worried about
this little bundle
of joy here, girl.
You made a champion.
Let me talk to him.
I don't know that
that would work, Ray.
He doesn't see me for
the fighter that I am.
He only sees me as
a mother and a wife.
The only way I can
prove I'm wrong, guys,
is if I beat Trina.
I need your help, come on.
What about that stomach?
I've been working out every day.
- Hmm.
- 500 crunches a day.
For the past month, I
have been at it, guys.
Come on, man. I need you.
Well, that's what
it's gonna take,
but I'm gonna tell
you one thing.
Trina hasn't tested any one
twos as to that stomach.
If Trina tears those
incisions in your stomach,
David is going to
never forgive me, ever.
I don't want to agree
with him, but I have to.
Look, you guys know me.
You know me.
I'm gonna train for this
fight with or without you.
Now, I'd prefer to do it with
you or I'm gonna do it on own.
And run the risk
of getting hurt.
Wow. I guess, little Lily,
we don't have any choice.
Yeah.
Lola is the best.
Come on.
Better than all the rest.
- What I'm talking about.
- There's my right girl.
That's what I wanna hear.
Get it.
Let's get it going.
We gonna do it. We gonna do it.
Ray, come on,
Ray. Come on, Ray.
Come on, Ray.
Fine. Whatever.
- Thank you, man.
- Whatever.
All right. Let's
get to training.
- Let's get to training.
- All right, let's do it.
What's up, champ?
What's up coach?
Nothing much. Just
enjoying this delicious,
nutritious banana. You
should eat more of these.
Okay?
I heard a new song today.
It's called word on the street.
Word on the street
That Lola's back in the
gym training, again.
What that mean?
What that means is,
her whole entire crew's
talking a lot of shit,
said, "She coming
to beat your ass."
And they hit the ass hard.
"Whoop your ass,"
that's what they said.
Well, me and you was both there.
I beat her already.
Yeah.
But you know what everybody's
saying about you beating her.
They said that she was
pregnant in the ring,
and that's the only reason
why you did beat her.
And that's confirmed.
Well, pregnancy part.
I beat her fair and square.
Rather she was pregnant or
not, I still would've beat her.
Okay. So what you
gonna do about this now?
You gonna let this
ride all this talk?
Or are you gonna get back
in the ring? What's up?
You sound like you with them.
I got her. I got it.
Don't worry about it, coach.
I'll beat her again,
just like I did before.
All right, we'll see about that.
They don't call me the
J.Lo of boxing for nothing.
I could either take you
there or drop you down.
So, let's see if you beat

Hi.
What's going on?
Nothing.
Just tired. Lily
kept me up all night.
I've known you for
a long time, right?
And you know I know
when something's wrong.
It's Lola.
Everything good?
I don't know.
I don't know what's
going on from that.
Go talk to her.
I would if I can see her.
We live in the same house, but
we barely even cross paths.
We don't even sleep in
the same bed anymore.
I know that's hard.
But you need to go
talk to your wife.
Yeah, man. It ain't
that easy right now.
Listen, listen, you can't
stand here punching this bag.
Go find your wife,
go talk to your wife.
I know both of y'all. I
know y'all love each other.
Go work this out, and gimme a
call when you find your wife.
Gimme a call, all right?
Go find her.
All right. All right.
All right.
All right.
Lola!
Lola. Babe.
David.
What are you doing home?
Hey.
Hey. What are you
guys doing here?
We're here taking care of
Lily like we do every day.
You guys always come this early?
This is the time
that Lola goes to work.
Work?
Yeah.
When did Lola get a second job?
- Like two weeks ago. Right.
- Couple of weeks ago.
Where's she working?
I don't know. Some bar,
sports bar or something.
Sports bar?
This is unbelievable.
Thank you.
Come on, come on, come on.
Ah, man.
Hey.
Stopped by your job tonight.
Yeah, I got off early.
So, I just wanted to come
by and get some work in.
Sorry I didn't call you.
You go anywhere after the bar?
What's with all
the questions, David?
Curious about my wife's
life. I am your husband, right?
Right.
You're my husband, not my dad.
Might as well be,
with you acting like a
child and everything.
And what is that
supposed to mean?
I spoke to your manager.
Okay, so I got fired.
Months ago, Lola. Jesus.
Why didn't you tell me?
And what good
would that have done?
All you would've tried to do
is convince me to stay at home.
And what's wrong with that?
Because I'm not a
fucking dog, David.
And don't get pissed at me
because I still have a life.
I'm coming here pissed
because you know what?
I'm not part of that life.
I'm trying to build something
with you, something for us.
Well, I can't be
who you want me to be.
Who do you want
to be, huh? Who?
Where were you
these past few months?
I've been training.
For what?
For Trina.
Lola, are you outta
your freaking mind?
See, this is what
I'm talking about.
You don't support me.
You're gonna get
yourself killed.
One hit to the stomach and
it's over. It's over, Lola.
I can take her!
Do you want your daughter
to grow up without a mother?
Now why would you say
some shit like that?
No, Lily's not gonna
grow up without me.
What is this? Is this
for your fucking pride?
This is not about pride.
I don't understand why
you don't get that.
Then what is it? Huh?
Things have changed, Lola.
No. See, you have
changed, David.
I'm still who I am, and I
can't let you or anybody else
stop me from doing
what I wanna do,
from being who I wanna be!
I won't do it.
You won't stop?
Not for me?
No.
And Lily?
David, I'm doing
all of this for Lily.
Is that what you think this is?
You are so selfish.
I won't stay here and
watch you kill yourself.
Kill myself?
You just don't believe in me.
David.
Then don't.
Now, Whoa. You look
like you training
to get back in the ring again.
Oh, don't worry, I'm
not gonna train you.
You're getting a
little too fat anyway.
Come on, stop.
What's wrong with you?
I don't wanna talk about it.
Fine. Sulk.
Lola's boxing again.
Once a fighter,
always a fighter.
Oh my God. You knew.
I knew.
I can't believe
you. You're my family.
You're my aunt. Why
wouldn't you tell me?
It's because it's what
she needs right now.
Like it or not,
it's what she needs.
And you choose her
over your own nephew?
I choose to believe in her.
You have no idea.
It's been so long
since I've seen
a female boxer this passionate.
The circumstances
may have changed,
but she's a fighter,
David, she's a fighter.
Does Ray know too?
West?
I can't believe you guys.
- Oh, come on.
- You know what?
Don't let me interrupt
your little fight club.
Oh, come on, David.
David.
Hey! Uh-uh.
Don't you walk away from
me when I'm talking to you.
Now, I may not be your mother,
and I don't care
how big you got,
but I will clean knock
you the fuck out.
Do you understand?
Now, you stay right here,
and you finish this
conversation with me.
Not this time.
You're adorable.
You're so beautiful.
Thank you, for making me better.
I love you so much.
And you're all mine.
Oh, I love you.
Hey.
Hey.
Careful. Careful.
I got it. Okay.
Take her with me.
Well, don't you think she
should be with her mother?
She should be.
But you have other priorities.
David.
Gonna take some
time off of work.
Good luck with everything.
David. David, please
don't do this. Please don't.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we are now moments away from
the main event of the evening.
How's everyone
enjoying themselves?
What? I can't hear you.
So, before we get started,
I would love to bring
the founders out
of Double Knockout Promotions,
who created the Queen of the
Ring Amateur Boxing Tournament,
to come and say a few words.
All right, now.
So excited to be here tonight.
Seeing all the
enthusiasm in the seats
literally warms my heart.
Do you guys remember
the Double Knockout Girls?
We knocked each other out.
Do you guys remember that?
Oh, wow. They remember.
I mean, that night the
capacity was for 500.
We filled the seats
with over 900 people,
and then we took our
money, put it together,
and decided to open up
a gym for young women,
so they can go out and box
and just have a safe space.
We are number one in the country
at selling out boxing
arenas, and we are females.
Give it up. Don't act like
you don't know. Give it up!
Are you ready to rumble?
Ladies and gentlemen,
thank you for coming out to
this highly anticipated fight.
In the red corner,
we have the challenger,
fighting out of
Diane's Boxing Academy,
with an amateur boxing record
of five wins and one loss,
with five wins by
way of knockout,
Lola Williams.
And in the black corner,
fighting out of All
Elite Boxing Club,
from Brooklyn, New York,
with an undefeated
12 and oh record,
all by knockout, the reigning,
undefeated Queen of the Ring,
Trina 'Doomsday' Jackson.
Fighters ready? Fight!
Come on, Lola.
Let's go. Let's go.
Lola is an outstanding fighter
from the outside.
Look at that lightning
footwork already put to use.
Come on, change levels on her.
Let's go, Lola.
Get in,
get in. Come on.
Trina just throws her
clear across the ring.
Oh! Lola
definitely felt that one.
That's the bell to end
an aggressive round one.
I'll tell you, if
the fight is anything
like this first round,
we are in for a treat.
Come on, we got this. Come on.
Come on, Lola. I need
you to pace yourself.
All right? I need
you to move around.
Why is there a round two?
You supposed to bend and
knock that bitch out.
Do you need me to get in here
and fight this fight for you?
Cause I will.
And when I do, you gonna owe
me some motherfucking money.
I need you to remix this bitch.
I got you.
All right. Whoop that trick.
Fight!
All right, Lola. You got this.
Oh!
Lola, pace yourself. Come on.
Stay on the outside.
Doomsday fully is taunting her.
You better rock her
to sleep. Come on.
Oh
My God. Lola is down.
Get up.
One
Stay down bitch.
Stay yo ass down.
Four
Get up, Lola. Get up.
Five, six, seven, eight.
You good?
Can fight?
Yeah.
This is a dangerous
place for Lola to be.
Yeah, she's just too
weak to be in there.
All right. You doing
real good out there.
Come on, come on. That
ain't even a knockdown.
Don't let that knockdown
bother you. You understand?
You got this. You understand me?
He not coming, is he?
Don't worry about that.
I need you to get your head
in the game. All right?
I need you to jab.
I need you to move.
We can do this.
Get her, Lola.
Come on, to the chair.
Keep moving.
Yeah, that's it, Lola.
Oh! That was a hard right,
right there to the chin.
You gone pulverize that bitch.
If I got to come back
in here again, girl.
Now do it.
Okay.
I wouldn't wanna feel
those hits from Trina.
Whoa Lola lands
a crazy body shot.
Yeah, she did.
Come on, you got it. Let's go.
Trina answers back.
Oh.
Whoa.
I gotta tell you,
this has been a dog fight
between these two champions.
Clap that bitch.
Come on, Lola.
I cannot believe
how close that it is.
It's been blow for
blow all night.
What the hell is
going on out there? Huh?
What is this shit?
You got this bitch flipping
on you, look at your eye.
Why does your eye
look like that?
She hit me, shit.
Shit, but you let her hit you.
Why the fuck you
letting her hit you?
Knock that bitch
all the way out.
You looking like
you've been in a war
with Shaquille O'Neal's
fucking big toenail.
They fucking crusty as
Give me my mouthpiece.
Yeah. You don't
like that shit.
Don't nobody like Shaq's feet.
Go in there, whip that bitch in.
Trina is controlling this round.
Hands up. Come on, Lola.
Saved by the bell.
She really was.
And looks like we're headed
to the eighth and final round.
Lola, what are you doing?
What is going on?
She's just so strong.
What have we been
doing this all for?
Where's that Warrior Spirit?
Forget about doing it
for everybody else.
You gotta do this for yourself.
You gotta do it for Lola.
Hey baby, don't quit now.
Okay?
This is your legacy for
Lily to follow, okay?
Go out there and turn
it all back, baby.
I love you.
Lola is the best.
Better than all the rest.
Lola is the best.
Better than the rest.
You better put them arms
up. Keep them arms up.
All right, switch Lola. Now
What the fuck is you doing?
Yes, baby, you got it baby.
Looks like Lola's getting tired
of Trina putting
her weight on her.
Let's go, Lola.
Bitch, come on.
Oh! Goes
down from a crazy left hook.
Are you serious?
Two, three, four.
Five, six.
No, no wait.
Trina is back on her feet
with only a few seconds
left of this final round.
They are really gassed.
We are done.
And that's the bell.
They went the distance in
this championship fight.
Hey.
Hey, girl.
You fought one hell
of a fight tonight.
So did you.
Where's your team?
I probably don't have a
team no more, but, but listen,
I wanna apologize for
crashing your wedding,
and saying all that
stupid shit that I said.
Oh man, that's all in the past.
We both did a lot of growing
because of this fight.
Yeah.
And because of what you said,
caused this big ass event.
And this is the amateur fight.
You know, we all fucked
up in amateurs.
This will definitely
make headlines.
Yes.
And we did that.
You definitely earned
my respect, Lola.
Truce.
My girl.
Wow, what an incredible match.
After eight hard championship
rounds at Queen of the Ring,
the judges score
the fight 76-76,
declaring the match a draw.
So the fight ended
and they draw tonight.
How do you feel about that?
You know, what can I say?
You know, she's
a great contender
and she proved that she can
bang with the best of us
and she has my respect
because he proved tonight
that we can put on a
great show and go to war.
Thank you so much, Trina.
Now Lola, how do you feel
about the draw tonight?
I mean, it was a tough battle.
It could have gone either way.
Man, this was definitely
one of the toughest fights
I've ever been in.
And Trina is toughest contenders
I've ever been up against.
- Will there be a rematch?
- I'll tell you this.
The world has not seen
the end of Lola Williams.
I'll fight anybody.
It doesn't matter.
This is who I am and
this is what I do.
Is it true you're going pro?
Well, I mean,
that's for me to know for
the world to find out.
Everywhere I go the
people really wanna know
Who I is and who I be
They stop and stare
when they see me
If I said it once,
no need to repeat
Run up on me, watch
your fall to your knees
Tip my hat when it's
time for the kill
Ain't no beats when
you really real
I am the boss
I am the dawn
I am the one they
call Lucky Charm
Got my own shit
I don't need your farm
Life was so hard,
it make me weak
Built to last, this
girl ain't weak
Sturdy and still
when I plant my feet
Got it out the mud
Now it's
my sweet
Look to God, He
supplies my needs
Endless faith is
what brought me
Next level prosperity
Silent power moves
is what I'm giving
They love to hate the
world they can't live in
Always present
for the high roads
Go swim within
the deep blows
Blow towards the future
Who knows, I don't
do it for the lights
I door it for the love
Do it for the ones
who really need a hug
'Cause they had it
tough, never had enough
Feared, loved, and respected
Use their words
as their weapon

Running after him

How quickly do we all forget
To honor these,

My darling, you are
the infamous queen
Man, respect or hill neglect
You are the wind

Giving sons eyes to see and

Anything less than
