I wanna be the best… to be the best you have to win.. and that’s what drives me..::

He’s the best player in the game
It’s just that simple, there’s nothing that Kobe can’t do,
he will defend your best player, he will shoot from the perimeter,
he will get all in your 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 weeks,
I said this when the trade went down, and I’ll repeat it again,
who starvin’ more, for an NBA World Championship,
more than Kobe Bryant,
There is no one,
this guy is Hollywood,
What separates Kobe from the pack.
More than Kobe Bryant,there is no one.

OK, Kobe doin’ work, two-four on my shirt,
he the greatest on the court,
i’m the greatest on the verse,
goin’ for the 4th ring like it was his first,
gotta get the bling, do it for Kareem, two-four so nice,
my flow so mean, catch me at the game
sitting next to goldstein
Kobe Bryant Nike’s, purple-gold strings,
Kobe in the game dunkin’ on the whole team,
Black Mamba, attack, conquer, basketball beast,
Rap monster, crossover good, or turn around jumper,
or just drive the lane, and dunk on dunkers,
yiu know where it’s goin’, it’s goin’ down yo,
this the Lake Show, but don’t drown though,
I call him King Bryant, now let the crown show.

Definitely I’m just Lost for words, I mean he’s amazing::

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, yeah,
I drops 40 on your double team,
then I drop 81 on another team,
yeah, you better guard me with caution,
and watch how I’ll work ‘em like an auction,
Haha, no such thing as exhaustion, no time for resting
’cause I don’t take breaks, I just break records, Heh,
and I prefer the ball with 3 seconds,
and I bet we gon’ win it all in 3 seconds, You dig?
That is a guarantee apparently and please tell your defense
don’t ever man to man with me.
Double team, triple team, You defenders sick of me,
but I never let them get to me.
Literally, step back and give them a three, ain’t no defending me.

One guy’s certainly envious of the way
Kobe Bryant’s been playing lately, LeBron James
I’ve been quoted saying he’s definitely the best player
in our league to me in my eyes the best scorer in our league
and I don’t know if there’s not another guy in this league
that can accomplish some of the things that he’s doin’::

Uh! 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 of High School,
the brackets ain’t for me I will be jumping over you
like I got a mattress at my feet
and all Phil Jackson say is you better be
passing it to me. I put the master in the peace,
attack it like the beats, and I am starving for victory
and that means I’ma eat
and when they ask you who’s the best,
then the answer should be me! hah

Who’s the best player in the NBA?
This year Kobe Bryant. Really, why?
Because you never know
what you’re going to get.::

Call me Mr.Clutch or Mr.Automatic,
I can post ‘em up or Lamar will get the alley,
I’m goin’ for the ring,I’m going for the ring,
I went to Beijing and came back with the bling!
Who they want? They want Kobe and what he want,
he want the trophy, the victory and the glory,
no Shaq, no Robert Horry.
Now break ‘em off, Kobe break ‘em off.
Yeah, you better beware the Laker dog.
Yeah, just give him the ball and he’ll take it all.
Yup,or he’ll probably be dishing it to Gasol.
Yeah, or give it to D Fish on the wing,
yeah, or just let Ariza do his thing.
Yeah, ’cause I’m great and so is my team.
Yeah, do it for Magic, it’s showtime baby.
I see nothing wrong with doing it four times baby.
I’m the best. Yes, he the best.
Yeah, don’t worry LeBron, get ‘em next year.
Now what’s defense to an assassin,
killer instinct, murder the basket,
then steal the ball back.
Hold it for ransom, it’s more than a game,
This is a passion.
Been an All-Star, been a Champion.
Free throw line, you hear ‘em chantin’
MVP! MVP! Kobe Bryant aka Envy Me,
any D, smash and D,whoever he is,
he can’t guard me, haha, he can’t guard me.
So there you have it, the overwhelming answer was Kobe Bryant

Feelin’ this track? It definitely beats Kobe’s song about Kobe. Let us refresh your memory.
