I Am

I am athletic and talented
I wonder what ill be doing in 3 years
I hear people shouting out my name
I see me going the right path
I want to become something
I am athletic and talented
I pretend that  I'm strong
I feel like I'm a survivor 
I touch the basketball
I worry about loosing myself 
I cry about thinking about my past 
I am athletic and talented
I understand my music
I say never give up
I dream about my future
I try to hide my emotions
I hope to have a better future
