What's going through your mind
when your running up the court, only 1 man to beat?
When he runs faster you`ll run faster
can he take the heat?
What's going through your mind
when 68 cross is open for the pass?
He catches the ball and you hope
this moment will last.

What are you thinking about
when there is a wide open toss?
What are you thinking about
when coach is yelling at you for dropping the ball
Why is it that in big moments you fall?
Coach told your parents before the season
that you would most definitely letter
You gotta learn from your mistakes
always making yourself better

You`re a good player
but you got a big head
you think you`re the best
You don’t listen during practice
or do the drills
why so different from all the rest?

What's going through your mind
when everything starts to go bad?
What are you thinking about
when you miss what you once had?
You're getting buried in the depth chart
grades slippin, where`d it all go?
You wanna be the best
but your just a john doe

You weren't a team player
you were only out there for yourself
What was going through your mind
when you saw there were no trophies on the shelf?
