[J-Live] Rock with me through the waves on the TV screen Flash back the dream sequence yo whatever it means Escape from the present time date and mindstate Rewind to a clean slate and a full plate 106th where they maintain the wall of fame Middle School showed me everything before was lame Girls and basketball, my approach was the same Couldn't score had no game but had fun playing Picture being the 12th man on championship teams From Bucks Tournament down to Asphalt Greens In between Rufford Towers and Metro North Struggling without hardships to not go soft Found what I really wanted but I didn't need I realized it galvanized my identity It makes strangers out of old friends and enemies But gave them brand new reasons to remember me Especially when...
