Lost Glory
A Football Trophy
Author
They ruled the city
Those days they were the best
Everyone behind them
They gave hope to everyone
No one wanted to be their opponent
Because they could butcher you
They were merciless
They had the best attack
They had the best man on their guide
They made ice melt
Whenever they were in action
They valued their reputation
They had the best defense
The best shot stoppers
Everyone is dying to see that glory again
But by the look of things
There is zero hope
They ruled the whole city
They were called heroes
The have won in eights
They have won trophies
Too many to write about them today
But everything changed
Was it because of change?
But they say it is inevitable
I think everything changed
From tactics
To style of play
They no longer shine
Their glory lost
Everyone ashamed of supporting them
They have the worst shot stopper
The worst defense
The worst boss
But pretty good manager
Suppressed by the rank
Little space to operate on
No choice but try
It’s evident that it is not easier
Trying to put things together
See if they gonna work
They have the worst start
But they don’t have any control
Loosing is the only option
Always asking for more games
But produce few goals
This is different from different past
They lose in high five
Not once or twice
Will they improve?
No signs
Money is valueless to them
They have it but can’t use it
What a shame
They have lost their glory
And no way to reclaim it
Lost glory, lost glory
