Hoop-Love

Lace-em up! � �
Time to get � �
�� Physical � �
Engage in this battle � �
until my last � �
�� breath � �
��
It took me � � �
to college � �
It took me � �
�� Off � �
of the � �
��streets � �
It took me � �
to places � �
��I dreamed � �
I would see � �
��
This bond � � �
with my 'Brotha's'� �
As we fight � �
for position � �
Brings us � �
Together � �
from all walks of � � �
�� Lyfe � �
��
�
�� Run � � �
through the press � �
Break down � �
��the defense � �
Let go � � �
of your ego's � �
�� & steal this � � �
Possession � �
��

You can't take away � �
what this game � � �
does for me � �
You can block me � �
& swat me � �
Drop "Dimes" � �
even foul me � �
The Hardwood � �
��is my home � �
& that's where � �
the heart is...
