Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Before the dawn breaks, she’s already awake,
Coffee in hand, for the journey she’ll take,
Her son’s chasing dreams on courts far and wide,
And she walks this road with a mother’s pride.
[Verse 2]
The clock starts at eight, but her thoughts are elsewhere,
Her heart’s on the hardwood, where he finds his flair,
From town to town, those endless miles unwind,
She bears the weight, yet never falls behind.
[Chorus]
Hoops and heartbeats, it’s the rhythm she knows,
With every shot he takes, her love only grows,
In victories and heartaches, she’s always there,
A voice in the bleachers, with a love beyond compare.
[Verse 3]
Long drives through the night, the city lights grow dim,
She’s weary but steadfast, her pride shining through,
Each layup, each battle, he’s fighting his fight,
And she stands unwavering, her spirit alight.
[Verse 4]
From the local gym to arenas afar,
She’s his guiding star, no matter how far,
Whether he soars or stumbles, whether they rise or fall,
She calls out his name, giving her all.
[Bridge]
She once had her dreams, plans of her own,
But she traded them in so he wouldn’t walk alone,
She shelved her ambitions, put them aside,
To nurture his passion, with love as her guide.
[Verse 5]
Her dreams now live in the arc of his shot,
In every point scored, in every battle fought,
She’s forgotten her past, but never lost sight,
Of the boy chasing dreams under the stadium light.
[Chorus]
Hoops and heartbeats, it’s the rhythm she knows,
With every shot he takes, her love only grows,
In victories and heartaches, she’s always there,
A voice in the bleachers, with a love beyond compare.
[Outro]
Her dreams are now his, they’re one and the same,
In his eyes, she sees her forgotten flame,
And though her own path took a different turn,
In his success, her soul continues to burn.
