Before I knew softball
My life was a mess
My parents put me through a test
They waited to see if I was in shape
They even got me on video tape
I got encouraged to join the game
So I did at first I was ashamed
But then I learned to play the game
Now that I love the game
I’m in the hall of fame

Softball has made me a better person and has made me push myself towards bigger things in life than taking the easy way out of things.
