Soccer is everything


Soccer is everything

Life is like a soccer ball, you dribble your way though the field 

As you dribble yourself through opponents.

Faking your shots

As you pretend with feelings in your head.

Even though you miss shots, you need to keep on trying, get up when 

You get tackled, and move on because you will make it pro.

As the clock ticks down so does your time on the pitch, shoot

Wisely as if it was your last match 

Follow through the encouragement of your teammates as you follow

The path of playing in your favorite league and team

To many it’s just a sport but…

Soccer is life 

And

Life is soccer.
