Mamba Out/Hard Work
Hard Work
Walking in the gym ready to play
Lace up my shoes and take the court
Hard work prevails at the end of the day
I cannot fail there is no way
My mind is focused my breath is short
Walking in the gym ready to play
I’m 8 years old in the weight room I stay
The grind for success is hard in this great sport
Hard work prevails at the end of the day
Before the game I pray and I pray
The gatorade I drink amounts to at least a quart
Walking in the gym ready to play
The game has started the sweat it sprays
Our defense locking down opponents like a fort
Hard work prevails at the end of the day
It’s the playoffs now and it’s almost gameday
We hear the crowd cheering us on we need their support
Walking in the gym ready to play
Hard work prevails at the end of the day
Mamba Out
Playing a sold out show
One more battle, blow by blow
One final time
Kobe’s shot flowed as smoothly as this rhyme
20 years went by
Man how time flies
‘’Man this is crazy’’
He fought through adversity, refused to be lazy
‘’The most important part is that we stayed together throughout’’
This motto proved him true without a doubt
5 NBA championships won
After 48 more minutes he’d finally be done
But took pride in the down years
Took pride in his work and overcame his fears
‘’We didn’t run,’’ the legend said
The mamba’s fangs stinging, his teeth bright red
Comeback win
Let retirement begin
Season high 60 points scored
Now the NBA will be a big bore
20 years went by
Man how time flies
‘’We didn’t run,’’ the legend said
The rumors about his retirement finally dead
‘’The most important part is that we stayed together throughout’’
This motto proved him true without a doubt
Comeback win
And a new chapter begins
One final time
Kobe’s swagger was oh-so sublime
‘’Man this is crazy’’
I will fight through adversity, refuse to be lazy
‘’What else can I say? Mamba out’’
Escorted out with a scream and a shout
Serenaded by ‘’Kobe! Kobe! Kobe!’’ chants
The NBA must find a way to advance
To start a new chapter and a new scene
And to find the next great Kobe Bean
