Dribbling to Victory
2nd period. E.J
Dribbling to Victory
The ball is your guide to victory
The waterfall of sweat dripping off your face
Trying to get a grip on the rough leather of the ball
The opposing team, ahead in the race of precise shots
With your team falling faster into the vortex of time
All hope seems to be lost
But you can't give in now
You've come way to far just to give in to the pressure
Wiping the sweat off of your face
With only seconds to go, you race down the court
Your passes are lightening bolts in the storm of players
You find the ball in your hands with 3 seconds left
Before you shoot you say a quick prayer
Blessing the ball on its journey to the hoop
You release it's cold leather out of your hands
Time is now quicksand as you hear the swoosh of the net
