One Last Shot


One last shot I use to say

This last shot can win the day

If i miss then nothing else matters

I lose the day and my confidence shatters

If I make then hurray

I cant let this opportunity slip away

A chance to get better, make way

One day this last shot is going to pay

I will be in spot lights and ready to play

But for now let me take this one last shot

This last shot I will give everything i got

All the focus I have left

Let me take this deep breath

Three dribbles and spin the ball in hand

The whole crowd looking at me, The Man

My arm goes up with a stroke of my wrist

The ball goes flying and then....

Swish
