Here You Go

Here you go,
Everything I have.
I give you my heart
My sweat, blood, and tears.

I run, jump, volley
Sacrifice my body,
Rain or Shine
Im out there alive.

I dont want to be.
But this game,
Its part of me.

Day after day,
The game beats me down.
Kicking mud in my face,
Destroying my ground.

But I refuse to stay down,
to give up, to fail.
No instead I push harder,
So I can play in honor.

Knowing that come game time,
I will rise to the top.
I will be the winner.
I will defeat the game.
