Hold your breath.
Praying it comes to you.
Hands out ready.
You want this.

Once it's over,
There's no turning back.
Yelling "up"
Straight in the air.

Scream with joy.
We won.
Let's do it again.

Hands up.
Intimidate.
That's the job.
Get it over.

Hands are red and burning.
Stinging from the high fives.
Ignore it.
Fight.

It's over.
Hallelujah.
Watch closely.
Ready to move.

Step!
Jump!
Push!

That feeling.
The best feeling.
That sense of perfection.
Of satisfaction.

It's over.
We won.
Come together.

Sweat dripping.
Mouth breathing.
Bad smelling.
But loving.

Put our hands together.
As respect.
The final cheer.
With smiles all around.

Pride.
That's what we have.
We have pride.

Pride in our game.
In our team.
In our skill.
In us.

Bruised knees?
No problem.
We'll fight.
Watch us slay.

Volleyball's the game.
Watch us play.
