You were the only one I can remember who never let me down
Because when the street lights let out, you still hung around

And I'm still trippin, because it's funny how we met
You remember? 5th grade, me and the guys placing a bet

I must admit, you were my 1st love as a child
And when sadness came my way, you could always make me smile

Well I know I can trust you cuz you've always been down
You see, when my friends turned their back, you still came around

You see, and most people jealous because we've always been close
But Forget em, who cares...you realer than most

I still love the way you drip and get wet
From my head to my toes, you still make me sweat

And I'm trynna stay sane in this game we call life
because if it was realisticly possible I would make you my wife

But as I come back to reality, I take a deep breath and count backwards from 10.. .. .. .. ..

.. .. .. .. And then.... And then.... And then.... I realize that BASKETBALL is still my friend!
