Waking up with soreness in your legs
A breakfast that consist of steak and eggs
Take a shower and refresh like a pool
Gather all your stuff and prepare for a day at school
It’s the life of a basketball player

Show up at school with a fresh sense of style
Such in great shape ‘cause you just ran a mile
Tackled with lots of homework by the end of the day
Want to play video games?
There’s no time to play
It’s the life of a basketball player

Walking through the doors
And I smell the gym floor
Greet all of the coaches
Then run like a bunch of roaches
It’s the life of a basketball player

Coming home late with so much work to do
My head feels like a train that goes “choo choo”
Time is ticking and it’s already twelve o’clock
Basketball is what I’m thinking about
But it’s time for me to knock
It’s the life of a basketball player
