The game's about to
start
and I'm ready to
go.
When this game is over
we'll be the winnersthat you know.
Now it's the beginning of
thequarter
and I know they're going to get beat.
But when they make some
points,
they are in the lead!
It's finally come to a tie,
and we have to have that fame.
But when we makea point,
we win the whole game! YAY!
My Life is
Basketball
My eyes are big before the game starts
My body covered in hope
14 years of practice
My mind is focussed
I have only one purpose
I visualize everything I want to do
My home the court
The crowd surrounding with their big eyes watching
Attracted to the bright lights
My team behind me
Weaving in and out of expectant fans
Making our way to the court
Endless cameras
Each other's families
Still sensing the sudden thrill of anticipation
We circle up, hands together, chanting
A team together
All focussed on glory
Where we will Live forever
