Game Got Rules


Standing in your shadows

why you out here,

pretending to ball.

DANG!

You hear that?

The whistle just blew.

Now you froze like

you don't know what to do.

Didn't notice me from\

your periperal vision,

yea just about to bench ya!

You was to busy fronting

with your layups

like they really that smooth,

getting all comfortable

with them fake baller moves.

Man; you forgot the game got rules!

You know like:

Love, Honer and respect your Wife!

You couldn't free throw that.

Too busy somewhere swinging your bat,

or the time you was covering the Quaterback

in the locker room with the cheerleader on her back!

Come on know don't look like that,

Yep I knew all that.

I been knowing you

was disloyal to this team!

I'm tired of covering up your mess ups

No longer trying to catch ya,

Thinking its time to replace ya!

With a player who know,

how to Follow the Rules!
