Put It On The LineWhen I was a kid, I used to go the park and watch the ballers play, wishing that that would be me one day. I was intrigued by their love of the game, they weren't getting paid, but they love hearing screaming their name. They were determined, motivated, focus to win, and after they played all day, they would play again. They worked hard and would hardly rest. They knew the form for success, and a kid like me was so impressed. Till then on, I knew what i wanted to do with my life, I was hungry for the game, so I fed my appetite. Day in and day out, I practice and got my game polished so I can get a scholarship to college. And make MVP and have all the scouts come see me, with the rest of the world on national tv. This is my chance. I got to give it all I got. With one second left on the clock, the winning shot!
[Chorus x2]
From the bottom to the top, I can't be stopped, I give it all I got, now I'm worth a whole lot. I live for the pressure. I work for the fame, and put it all on the line each and every day
[Verse Two]
Yeah I made it, No more hand me down clothes, no more socks with holes that expose my toes
Matter of fact, You can go and quit your job now, Mom, we paid! Ima buy you a.... with a match it. I know your proud of me, Mama. Your son is a star, and I owe it all to you. You sacrificed alot, and now Im going to pace to get that # 1 spot, and I haven't forgot to give back to my community, extend myself, give someone else an opportunity as if I could help, Ill help ya cuz I know that life at the bottom is aint nothing nice, lemme tell ya. Im a role model that rolls with..... and everytime I get it, its like I hit the ... but Im still down on earth, you know how I do, and thats the bottom line, C I U!
