The Field General
Growing Up from Oriental displacement,
The American Dream became a long journey.
Being the eldest of Three,
Made me became the Tree.
Playing Sports differenciate me from the rest.
From Pig-Skin to Hardcourt floor, I became the best.
Growing Up in the South,
The Sterotypes is Surreal.
Causing me to hang up my cleats and put away my bat,
and made me become a gym-rat.
Instead of dreaming about cash, I am building a Six-pack.
