about
Under the pressure of the spotlight, how do you perform?
lyrics
(Mane Rok)
From underground through tunnels, storming the field/
To thunderous applause, ignoring what's real/
Blinded at first like birth, but, gotta focus fast/
Sideline distractions, "YUP!," Like them hoes with ass/
Endzone's the end goal, run the score up tenfold/
Cost for bandwagon hoppers, "PUT IN ON THAT PETRO!"
Gassed up, tempo full speed, no one's here to scrimmage/
Ruthless bluechips who don't adhere to limits/
Record breakers with fancy footwork every final second/
"Can't leave rap alone!" That's how the vinyl beckons/
Signal received but I'm shot calling an audible/
Pointing passed bleachers leaving hair standing on follicles/
Stay Tuned for a solid show - Adrenaline Rush!
Twista bit and break some ankles - straight offensive with cuts/
Competition left in the dust, perform under pressure's a must - CRUSH!
& make highlight reels - that's attention not love, bruh!
(InkLine)
A bunch of All Trade Jacks huddled up in a pack/
Stay in the flow state, better go look up the stats/
That's where the energy be at - What is that?!
It's Big Timmy Riggins on the track, run it back!!
In fact, if you don't get the reference, you gon' miss the blessing/
I aint sweating if you contest it/
No wonder all you refs always stressing/
Never been a whistle blower but I blow a hole where your chest is/
BLAOW!!
Always been from the pen, serving sentences/
Really ran the game, no scrimmages/
LIFE so hard, when it hits, all their faces make grimaces/
Whole life 4th and Goal, that's how tense it is/
But the feeling never cease to exist/
For the team run the play, however we can assist/
I'm a beast with teeth grit, no reason to quit/
Lead the league all season, bad knees and shit/
(Ichiban)
Head to head matchup, call it when the coin toss/
In a must win, by any means avoid loss/
Home field advantage, of course it gets loud/
Pouring down is the roar of the crowd/
Hand off, find a hole, make lanes, create angles/
Spin move, cut back, juke, & break ankles/
If fumbling get up again, then huddle up and call the play/
Rumbling, bumbling, stumbling and going all the way/
Focus on fundamentals, follow veteran pros/
Put in work, study film, examine the X's and O's/
It's on the shoulders of giants they stood/
Digging deep in the silver lining's playbook/
Gunslinger in the shotgun, standing tall in the pocket/
Clock winding down and the L not an option/
Down but not out, the results may vary/
Living on a prayer...Hail Mary!
