Tj Fredette - Amazing lyrics

rate me

It's been about 21 years,

but back when you were youngerI did

everything I could as an older brotherto get you to understand that you

were given a gift so with each other we would muster up a plan to

succeed with one another

there's no wonder you would slowly start to

climb to successbut it wasn't easy working hard

was something that we

would stress

so I pressed and pushed you harder

because you really

impressed me when you told me that you wouldn't stop till you were the

best

oh yes

so how could I let you settle for less

and every time I

knocked you down

it was all just a test

but you got back up

I could see

the dream was for the taking when you were only 5 years old because it

was truly amazing!

Chorus...singing

Remember when the media took noticethe local hero that you had

become,

so now the focus was to keep you levelheaded

you were bred

to be a superstar

but the most important thing is that you

never forget who you are

be true to your heart...

newspaper headlines every day

TV interviews

and radio stations

coming your way

the scouts all over the country flying in to watch you

play

MVP awards

trophies galore

and it made me say

you were

doing great

but this is only the beginning

don't be satisfied we have

to try to live out the dream

we need to magnify the talent that you

have

take it further and further and every time we tasted glory we

worked harder and harder...

Chorus...singing

You worked your way to see the national attention that you needed

the D1 level

where you have succeeded at a level all the jealous people

said that you would never see

as for me,

there's no way in the world

that there could ever be a prouder older brother

they said that you

were too white

they said that you were too slow

but we continue to

fight and ignite

the type of fire that had you practicing nights

when

everybody was partying

you were keeping your sights on the dream,

the NBA

I'll never forget the day when I wrote you a contract that

would say

that you would pay

whatever price,

you looked at me with

fire in your eyes

wrote your name upon the line

a defining moment in

time... now it's time.
