|
I can't play the sidelines
|
With all my folk in the stands
|
Giving up just ain't apart of the plan
|
I can't play the sidelines
|
While they still a¢æ?chea
|
Yea I been down but I'm still here
|
I can't play the sidelines
|
Yea I can deal with the pain
|
Cause you ain't winning a¢æ?less they hollerin' ya name
|
I can't play the sidelines
|
So put me in coach
|
I swear to God, that's all I got to live for
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
On my first rep, tryna max out
|
Lifting burdens, being worried 'til I pass out
|
Jumping hurdles, running laps just for scraps in this rat race
|
Lord knows I'm tired, never step, gotta keep pace
|
Read my playbook, lay my head down
|
Caught a sprain, ice buckets by my bed now
|
Felt a impact like a truck hit me full contact
|
No pads, Lord come get me, I'm down
|
I can feel it in my soul
|
This my last chance to shine but they know I'm getting old
|
Hard to move on, my legs ain't been the same
|
Since I took a fall from greatness
|
Now I knowing when it rains on my homecoming
|
See my folks, smiling
|
I'm the GOAT, but I really need to hold something
|
One more dime, I'll be fine, yea I'm the best in my prime
|
But what about now
|

|
[Verse 2]
|
On the second set, got to do this for myself
|
When the balls in my court, can't depend on no one else
|
This a long shot, but I trained all my life
|
Broke some bone, cried some tears just so I could get it right
|
When it's time, hit the gym trying to win
|
On the off-season doing what I can, but I'm running out of time
|
Got a partner going through it
|
Cause his bills still due and he ain't started since the moment that he signed
|
Physical training and all
|
Rehabilitation the cause of shookin' jivin', no hard turf
|
Ain't no complaining at all when they overturnin' your call
|
This is life and yes it's hard work
|
We out here fighting like dogs in every man backyard
|
Trying to get what was lost reimbursed
|
Just a big [?] on the wall, give it my all 'til they hang up my shirt
|
