Football
11 people
Back to back
Against the wall
Putting all their faith and trust
Into the guy
On the right
On the left of them
Knowing
10 people have your back
As you have all theirs

Picking someone up ,
When they have fallen.
Raising them high,
When they have achieved success.
Showing them the way,
When they are lost.
Protecting the brotherhood,
That you help build.

Playing under those bright, bright lights,
When the lights turn off,
Knowing
You gave it your all
Leaving it on the field
The anger,
The disappointment,
The greed.
But improvement,
Leadership ,
Happiness,
That stays with you
Until the next game
But before that game comes
Practice hard
So when your next opponent comes
You know
With 100% certainty
You are ready
