Verse
The lights go on, another game day
I grabbed my bat and headed for the plate
But the first pitch was a curve and I was done - Strike one!
I stepped out of the box, looked the pitcher in the eye
You could read his lips, "Hey punk, you're mine."
So I gave him a wink and said "Let's see what you can do." - Strike two!
Chorus
Gotta keep my eye on the ball, swing straight and true and follow through
Don't be afraid whatever the call
Because we're never alone
Our coach is there to cheer us on
Well it's the wind up, here comes that ball
You gotta pray and swing, watch it till it's going, going, its gone
Home Home Home run
(we need a home run)
Verse 2
You know life can be like a baseball game
We're on the same team, but we're not all the same
( )
That's why we've got to learn to play together
I didn't join this team to sit on the bench
I'm going deep, swinging for the fence
( )
I got some friends on base I gotta get home
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
We are not the first to play this game or stand over this plate
We are surrounded by their legacy, like they're sittin' in the stands
I can see them waving their hands
saying, "Go, go all the way!"
