Al Pacino, Dennis Quaid, LL Cool J, Jamie Foxx - Inches lyrics

I don't know what to say
Really three minutes to the biggest battle
Of our professional lives all comes
Down to today, and either, we heal as a
Team, or we're gonna crumble inch by inch
Play by play until we're finished

We're in hell right now
Gentlemen believe me and, we can
Stay here, get the shit kicked out of us
Or we can fight our way
Back into the light we
Can climb outta hell one inch at a time

Now I can't do it for ya, I'm too old i look
Around, I see these young faces
And I think, I mean
I've made every wrong choice
A middle-aged man can make i, uh
I've pissed away all my money, believe
It or not i chased off anyone
Who's ever loved me and lately
I can't even stand the face
I see in the mirror

You know, when you get old, in life
Things get taken from you i mean
That's that's that's a part of life but
You only learn that when you start losin'
Stuff you find out life's
This game of inches, so
Is football because in either game
- life or football -
The margin for error is so small i mean, one
Half a step too late or too early and you
Don't quite make it one half second too slow
Too fast and you don't quite catch it

The inches we need are
Everywhere around us they're
In every break of the game, every minute
Every second on this team we
Fight for that inch
On this team we tear ourselves and everyone
Else around us to pieces for that inch we
Claw with our fingernails for that inch

Because we know when add up all those inches
That's gonna make the fucking
Difference between winning and
Losing! Between living
And dying! I'll tell you this
In any fight it's the guy who's willing
To die who's gonna win that inch and I know
If I'm gonna have any life anymore it's
Because I'm still willing to
Fight and die for
That inch, because that's what living is
The six inches in front of your face
Now I can't make you do it you've got
To look at the guy next to you
Look into his eyes now I think ya
Going to see a guy who will
Go that inch with you your
Gonna see a guy who will
Sacrifice himself for this team
Because he knows when it comes down to it
Your gonna do the same for him

That's a team, gentlemen, and either, we
Heal, now, as a team, or we
Will die as individuals that's football guys
That's all it is now, what are you gonna do?
