Basketball is Our Game
Basketball is a game that we love
Something we always think of
Winning is what we desire
But not every athlete can acquire
In this game we can be a model
That someday every kid will follow
Obstacles in the way can be a challenge
But we are not afraid since we can manage
As we drive to the center
We cant be scared of the defender
Loosing may bring a tear
But crying will show our fear
We have a lot of determination
This is what we need in every situation
Practice is what we do every day
This will makes us stronger someday
We run back and forth
From both ends of the floor
This can be tiring
But its worth it when you're trying
Failure is not an option
Triumph is our function
Coordination at it's best
Brings players to a test
A fade away is what we invest
But creativity is seen by the rest
Dribbling may be a challenge
But shooting is our talent
We will do anything to win
Until the last sweat runs through our skin
Weakness leaving the body is called pain
Without it we have no game
There will be times when we suffer
But only this can make us tougher
Basketball is the best
Disagreement can come from the rest
Many would try
But few will shine
