Mohammed Ali Cassius Clay The Legend He was not a humble man Everything he did, was big and grand He taunted and barbed with poetic flair His opponents he angered Entertainment in the air He was a legend, bigger than man A champion in the ring He often took a heroic stand Breaking barriers of narrow minds He defined his style in his own time His greatest feats were not title wins Nor his taunts and bragging sins Inside there was a more humble man Who stood for the downtrodden in troubled lands Full of humility he still could sting like a bee In the end he floats away A softer man, of a fighter’s heart So shed a tear, for this complex legend Whose humble beginnings’ The butterfly brought home to his roots God brought him back to his beginning Cassius Clay he was… and now lives in eternity Freed not by name But by convictions... of his Good deeds
