Kobe Bryant

I want to be the best I want to be the best, simple and plain That's why I play the game And to be the best you have to win And that's what drives me [Intro: Stephen A. Smith] He's the best player in the game It's just that simple There's nothing that Kobe Bryant can't do He will defend your best player He will shoot from the perimeter He will get all in yo' mug He will do whatever it takes He is the most complete basketball player In the game today - bar none He has an assassin's mentality I said this week, I said this when the trade went down And I will repeat it again Who's starving more for an NBA World Championship More than Kobe Bryant There is no one This guy is highly motivated What separates Kobe from the pack More than Kobe Bryant, there is no one [Verse 1: Lil Wayne] Kobe doin' work 2-4 on my shirt He the greatest on the court And I'm the greatest on the verse Going for the fourth ring like it was his first Gotta get the gleam Do it for Kareem Two-four so nice, my flow so mean Catch me at the game sitting next to Goldstein Kobe Bryant Nikes, purple gold strings Kobe in the game dunkin' on the whole Black Mamba, attack, conquer Basketball beast, rap monster Crossover good, or turnaround jumper Or just drive the lane and dunk on dunkers You know where it's goin', it's goin' down yo This is the Lakeshow, but don't drown though I call him King Bryant, now let the crown show [Interlude: LeBron James] I'm definitely, I'm just lost for words I mean, he's amazing [Verse 2: Lil Wayne] Pass me the damn ball I don't need a pick at all And don't worry 'bout my shot Cause I'ma get that off Yea, I drops 40 on your double team Then I drop 81 on another team Yeah, you better guard me with caution And watch I work 'em like a auction No such thing as exhaustion No time for resting Cause I don't take breaks I just break records And I prefer the ball with three seconds And I bet we gon' win it all in three seconds Ya dig That is a guarantee Apparently And please tell your defense Don't ever man to man with me Double team, triple team Your defenders sick of me But, I never let 'em get to me Literally Step back and give 'em a three Ain't no defending me [Interlude: Reporter & LeBron James] One guy certainly envious of the way Bryant's playing lately, LeBron James I've been quoted saying that He's definitely the best player in our league Um, to me, in my eyes The best scorer in our league And there's not another guy in our league That can accomplish some of the things That he's doing [Verse 3: Lil Wayne] Never take a day off Catch you at the top of the key And get a J off Baseline face time Tongue out like two-three Even two-three gotta love how I do me Practice while you sleep Practice in my sleep Straight outta high school Tha brackets ain't for me I will be jumpin' over you Like I got a mattress at my feet And all is Phil Jackson say is you Better be passin' it to me I put the master in the piece Attack you like a beast And I am starvin' for victory And that means I'mma eat And when they ask you who's the best Then the answer should be me [Interlude 3: Elie Seckbach/Mikael Pietrus] Seckbach: Who's the best player in the NBA Mikael: Um, I'll say Kobe Bryant Seckback: Really?
