His Name is Kobe

 His Name is Kobe - bad as he can be
 360 to the hoop then he'll knock down a 3
 His Name is Kobe -  can't stop him if you try
Double team him low and he'll kill ya up high

His Name’s Kobe - B'ball is his game
Puts fear into your heart -  just sayin’ his name
The name is Kobe - a jumper silky sweet
Outsmart you with his mind - outplay you with his feet!

He came right outa high school - hit the NBA
From Italy to Philly then over to L.A.
He set his sights up high - the best he could be
His limit was the sky - they made him MVP

 His Name is Kobe - ballin’ everyday
 Doin' things you never seen - compared  him to MJ
 His Name’s Kobe - a champion with rings
 Royalty of basketball - a king among the kings

 His Name is Kobe - maybe best of all
 Don't make no difference if he is - just give him the damn ball
His Name is Kobe - look out... let him go
Born to play in Hollywood - the star in ev’ry  show

An international man was he
Citizen of the world
Around the globe they loved Kobe
Every boy and girl
Devoted to his family
The LA community
Pursuing varied interests
 Including poetry

His Name is Kobe - he’ll do what ain’t been done...and
When you check him out - sit back.....enjoy the fun!
 His Name is Kobe - don't worry 'bout his number
All you need to know is ...he's called .."The Black Mamba"
