A round ball King, you know what I mean

A prodigy of the hardwood

When he first came on the scene

The air of a G O A T, his scent he does not no

That ball his best friend, lets rehearse for the show

Outwork you I will, the numbers don’t lie

While I’m up climbing that hill

You’re just awake with one eye

The work day is real, every play like my last

I rule the hardwood, I stay sweeping the glass

Respect for the game is what really drives me

The roar of the crowd

That championship trophy

And especially my loving family

A King of the Cage for 20 strong years

Slaying acronym Gladiators

And instilling round ball superior fear

Greatness is grown on hard work and grace

Set sight on your goal and head for that place

In the hall he has landed as we all knew that he would

An Epic story we watched, starting out in boyhood

All hail the King, the man, the myth and now the Legend

Heaven’s hardwood resting spot

For one of the greatest round ball rulers ever
