Ecstasy And Solace In Rhythm
All worries fade away on the paradise of asphalt.
The sun will always rise and set through the elevated goal.
In this sport, our indifference comes to a halt.
Elegant moves and explosive power in a game of constant thought.
The heartbeat of a game through wins and losses, stories are told.
All worries fade away on the paradise of asphalt.
Dreams and memories are preserved through sweating salt.
Jumpshots jump start the playground’s soul.
In this sport, our indifference comes to a halt.
Aerial acrobatics to the basket as an aggressive artistic assault.
Sitting on my round paint brush with the painted lines, a beauty to behold.
All worries fade away on the paradise of asphalt.
An empty court where so many lessons are taught.
Emptying all of me here makes me whole.
All worries fade away on the paradise of asphalt.
In this sport, our indifference comes to a haut.
