I did not chose it, it chose me
And I laughed ever since
Evil came but it was shoot away
Madness came and it got dunked on
Life knocked out me cold
But I was still at the free throw line standing tall
Knees went weak when I was on my peak
They broke
I worked hard all my life,
Never stopped
The tears went down, but I never did
Smiling I kept going
Did you hear about the guy who only smiled on the court?
Have you seen the joy the game brings?
Felt the emotions, felt the fear and felt the cheer?
I heard those words, I felt those things and I am still feeling
Don’t want to live forever, don’t need the fame
I only need to play the game.
