Song about me.
One of my favorite songs is Best rapper alive by Lil Wayne. The reason for this song being one of my favorites is it reminds me of my high school hockey career. Our team would listen to this song at least a half dozen times before we would hit the ice for warm ups. The song itself is about Lil Wayne being the best rapper alive and no one else can stop him. As a team we thought this song could represent us to help us have a winning record. After warm ups of every home game we would listen to the song one last time before we hit the ice for the game. As the season began we started off with a 7-0 record. Everything was going how we wanted to. Eventually things didn’t go our way and we ended the season with a 17-5 record. Funny thing is in the last playoff game we played a kid on our team brought a new cd with. The song best rapper alive was not on the cd. This upset many people on our team, and we ended up losing the game. I’m not saying we lost the game because we didn’t get to listen to our team song but it’s always a possibility. My senior year the song was pretty outdated by then. I still had it as my ritual. Before every game that year I would listen to that song on my iPod before I hit the ice. I don’t know if it worked but it definitely gave me more motivation to work my tail off from start to finish. That season we didn’t end up with as good of a record as the year before. I still think that song pushed me to give the extra effort and paid off in games when I needed that burst of extra energy.
