about
Combining a love of the game and a love of music, “She’s Got Game was created over a several years from gym sounds captured on an iphone, a basketball for percussion, and a keyboard . Whether you enjoy sports or not, we all need a pumped up jam to make us feel like "we got game"
lyrics
Lyrics:
Welcome to the house, erase all your doubts, it’s about to get real loud
Cheers and lights excite, as she sets her sight on taking flight tonight
Bleachers buzz to sneaker squeaks, in the key of a heart’s melodic beat
In the air, on the wood, in your neighbourhood, her mind rehearsing what it should
Staying sharp to play her part, this symphony’s about to start
The whistle blows, it’s time for the show, are you ready? Let’s go
So toss up the rock, start the clock, just watch as she takes you down the block
Attacks and cracks expensive fences, leaving you senseless on both ends
No shame, no blame on a breakaway, her fade away just can’t be tamed
Knocks you off, beats the clock, like a polished hammer nailing the shot
A fake, a pass, she’s boards the glass, try to hit a pic, she’ll roll right past
She ‘ll take the charge, blow for blow, Don’t you know? Its in her soul
She did it her own way
Head held high, no shame
You’ll remember her name
Cause she’s got game
And make no mistake
This girl can play
You’ll remember her name
Cause she’s got game
Word around town, you’re throwing down trash you made up on hollowed ground
But everyone knows, it’s no basketball jones, she’s got’s the goods and it always shows
It may seem subtle but no rival is trouble, give in and go when they start seeing double
Steppin daily into the gym, hitting the rim preparing for the win
You reach, she’ll teach, you snooze you lose, she’s got moves so fine tuned,
And when the clock fades, hands shake, cause those who know, know what it takes
To play this game, yea we got game, win or lose, no excuse
She did it her own way
Head held high, no shame
You’ll remember her name
Cause she’s got game
Make no mistake
This girl can play
You’ll remember her name
Cause she’s got game
She did it her way, head high no shame
You’ll remember her name cause she’s got game
Make no mistake, this girl can play
You’ll remember her name cause she’s got game
