The Underdog
Moments like this aren't hard to find.
Wooden floors beneath my feet,
Screaming fans glued to the seat,
Everyone looks at me with a grin.
Pay it no mind for they will see.
First three minutes I'll score ten.
I hear the voices in the crowd.
Just keeping playing with out a word.
The court is the sky, I am the bird.
The game approaches the end.
They surround me by four.
So I shoot one more.
As a white short kid, people always underestimate me on the court.
