Sideline

[Hook:] I can't play the sidelines With all my folk in the stands Giving up just ain't apart of the plan I can't play the sidelines While they still 'chea Yea I been down but I'm still here I can't play the sidelines Yea I can deal with the pain Cause you ain't winning 'less they hollerin' ya name I can't play the sidelines So put me in coach I swear to God, that's all I got to live for [Verse 1:] On my first rep, tryna max out Lifting burdens, being worried 'til I pass out Jumping hurdles, running laps just for scraps in this rat race Lord knows I'm tired, never step, gotta keep pace Read my playbook, lay my head down Caught a sprain, ice buckets by my bed now Felt a impact like a truck hit me full contact No pads, Lord come get me, I'm down I can feel it in my soul This my last chance to shine but they know I'm getting old Hard to move on, my legs ain't been the same Since I took a fall from greatness Now I knowing when it rains on my homecoming See my folks ? I'm the GOAT, but I really need to hold something One more dime, I'll be fine, yea I'm the best in my prime But what about now [Hook] [Verse 2] On the second set, got to do this for myself When the balls in my court, can't depend on no one else This a long shot, but I trained all my life Broke some bone, cried some tears just so I could get it right When it's time, hit the gym trying to win On the off-season doing what I can, but I'm running out of time Got a partner going through it Cause his bills still due and he ain't started since the moment that he signed Physical training and all Rehabilitation the cause of shookin' jivin', no hard turf Ain't no complaining at all when they overturnin' your call This is life and yes it's hard work We out here fighting like dogs in every man backyard Trying to get what was lost reimbursed Just to be G.O.A.T. on the wall, give it my all 'til they hang up my shirt [Hook]
