Follow Your Dreams

On any given night he's throwing that ball through a hoop.

Bounce... bounce... bounce... first he dribble's, then shoot.

On any given weekend you'll find him at the court.

He's got a lot of pressure and such little support.

He's just a little kid, but he's got a big dream.

Golden State native, one day he'll play on the team.

A warrior at heart and he's filled with the spirit.

Chasing his dreams without knowing he's near it.

The pressure is on,

People say he won't make it.

He's staying strong,

God knows he can take it.

Every single day he's consistent with practice.

Determination, Dedication, Nobody can match his

Passion is real, and his victory is to come.

Hall of fame potential when it's all said and done.

He's got the star power.

Putting it all on the line.

He's the basketball player.

And as he should he's gon' shine.
