I hate Milwaukee.
However, I love the bucks.
I’ll give you good games.
Love of the Game
Let Up

My dog died this year; I was fired from my job
Despite being praised for my work like God
And as I see Tyrone replaced by Bob
The Jakes keep murdering George and the Toms just nod
Bad news won’t let up; moral arc won’t bend
Winning is a luxury—I can’t remember when
And I’ve let down myself, family, friend after friend
Thank God there’s tomorrow to let you all down again
Let Up
The Day

Some say success is just for the white man
And every black man is made to feel like Kite Man.
Race is class, but no matter how bright man—
If you wanna pass, you need more than a light tan.
History’s being banned and books are blocked
Yet everybody acts like they’re suddenly so shocked
When democracy’s been backwards, and it’s incessantly mocked—
But today’s the day the whole world was rocked?
The Day

B-ball’s a team sport.
That’s why I score all the points.
My team supports ME.

I sit on the bench.
But I am the best player—
Just ask my mother.
