The give and go, the pick and roll.
The in and out, the out and in,
the backdoor uncut, the will to win.

"Gameface is a baller's state of mind.
ReplyDeleteRelaxed to let your game unwind.
Just stay in a state of chill.
Just play the game and use your will.
Use your mind to overpower matter.
Shut out any negative outside chatter."
Keep your head stay in the game.
Chill and keep your anger tame.
Inhale, relax and let it flow,
Exhale and let your gameface show.
