another game, another hustle..

How did I get here you ask? Shit, I'm still tryna figure that out myself.. growing up I was never athletic, sure I played ball here and there but I was never any good like most of my friends were. I had a hard time finding my way.. that was until I got introduced to "the game". The other game.. the life of the guys who sat on the sidelines at the basketball games.. they were the ones who drove the hottest cars, who all the women flocked around and wore jewelry like the rappers I had seen on TV. I never saw anything like it.. it was then I knew I had to get closer.. but I never knew soon enough I'd have a front row seat.

it all happened so fast.. in the beginning it was just fun and games.. and then in the blink of an eye it went from 0 to 60. This was it.. the big league.. I wasn't starting though, but shit, I was on team.. and that was good enough for me, so I made the most of it. The cars, the night life, trips out of town.. the women.. I finally made it.. so I thought. 

The thing about The Game.. as with all things, there's a duality to it. Like the ying and the yang.. or the law of gravity.. what goes up, must come down. And that's usually how the story ends.. as for me though, I'm still here..

I figured GOD must have had a different plan for me.. 

So I'm on to another game, another hustle..
