The Legend Of Connie Hawkins

(专辑： Break Our Fall - 2021)

It's just a dream
It's just a dream
It's just a dream
It's just a dream

It's just a dream
It's just a dream
It's just a dream
It's just a dream

Down on the courts in Bed Stuy, a legend rose from the streets
Just a poor kid with no use for what the others called gravity
People came from all around to see young Connie Hawkins do his thing
When the hawk went up against the best at Rucker Park, oh how the choir would sing

High flying kid, do you know what you just did?

And it's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, what do you know
Hey pa, I think I'm gonna make it, I'm going away on a one way ticket
And it's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, steady you go
Round here those are always sinking, folks will say, Connie, what were you thinking

He lead the team in High School, he never lost once two years in a row
Got a scholarship to Iowa and knew that he had to go
He sent a letter home, to his papa, said, papa, I'm going to the NBA
But then out of nowhere his name got dropped into a scandal, always someone got to pay

High flying kid, do you know what you just did?

It's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, what do you know
Hey pa, I think I'm gonna make it, I'm going away on a one way ticket
It's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, steady you go
Round here those are always sinking, folks will say, Connie, what were you thinking

So I got to, got to, got to get going now, pap, there's a detective here from the DA
And he's telling me they'll lock me away, if I don't say what he wants me to say

So to all the kids on the back home lots, I swear it isn't like they say
The investigators pushed me around, and then I was blackballed by the NBA

That playground legend, who could dunk when he was eleven, with super natural abilities
Long before MJ, before the Doctor
And his Dreams were stolen, stomped on and thrown in, he never got his day in the sun
And now here lies High Flying Hawkins, the greatest player that never was

So to all the kids on the back home lots, I swear it isn't like they say
The investigators pushed me around, and I was blackballed by the NBA
His dreams were stolen, stomped on and thrown in, he never got his day in the sun
And now here lies High Flying Hawkins, the greatest player there ever was
