basketball:

the anticipation mounts when we get on the bus
were leaving for another town
another place were our pride in our team is seemingly matched
but they can't compare to whats coming
we've waited since fourth grade for this
there not going to stop up
ranked 1st in the state, means nothing to this man
we step off the bus, check into the hotel
order in for dinner, chicken parm
try to sleep for tomorrow
can't sleep, want to play now
game winning shots run through my head
i drift asleep
the day is here, team meeting at 10
walk to the stadium, watch a game
3rd quarter hits and the legend gives us the signal
to the locker room we go, stretching, dressing
leaving any signs of fear at the door
this is our time
our time to shine
we get the speech
im nervous, im ready
we're nervous, we're ready
we hit the floor wit the crowd screaming
this is what i live for
this is what we live for
tip-off... three pointer to start the game off........


exhausted, relieved
the score reads 74-51
devils are in the championship game
