I was sitting on the bench withmy ankle taped up, watching our team geting beat like a drum, by a rival school. They were giving high fives and acting cool. Tommy fouled out and the coach looked around; said, "22, it looks like it's down to you going back in. Do you think you can go again?" In the back of my mind I saw an old sign hanging up in the jr. High gym. Said "Never give up cause winners never quit & quiters never Win"
Sometimes you gotta suck it up & go, bite down on the bullet don't let no body know, Laugh it up, walk it off, tough it out, dust off the dirt. Sometimes you gotta play hurt.
I called my folks and told her she was the one. All they could say was, "We're happy for you son it's about time you left your rowdy ways behind."

Then I realized you can't sit around and wait for your life to mend.
