Forged in the Game

With the roar of the crowd, I was born to play,

Chasing down the dreams, night turns into day.

Five years old, cracked gloves and turf,

Bat in my hand, felt the weight of the earth.

Swinging for the stars, every hit a fight,

Underneath those lights, I found my light.

Every strike and every fall,

Built the strength inside my soul.

Lessons learned, scars and pride,

In the game, I came alive.

I am who I am because of the game,

Those fields of glory, they called my name.

Baseball dreams and taekwondo flames,

Forging a spirit that won’t be tamed.

Seven years swept through kicks and forms,

Discipline and focus, weathering the storms.

With every roundhouse, I learned to stand,

Fighting my fears with a firebrand.

From the diamond to the dojo floor,

I crafted my heart and opened doors.

Victory sweet, the taste of the grind,

In that struggle, my strength defined.

I am who I am because of the game,

Those fields of glory, they called my name.

Baseball dreams and taekwondo flames,

Forging a spirit that won’t be tamed.

And when the shadows loom, I stand so tall,

With every bruise and every fall.

The cheering echoes still in my mind,

Every challenge met, every fight refined.

I am who I am because of the game,

Those fields of glory, they called my name.

Baseball dreams and taekwondo flames,

Forging a spirit that won’t be tamed.

So here I stand, built from my past,

With love for the game, it’s a bond that lasts.

In this rock and roll, I hear my call,

Sports made me rise, taught me to never fall.
