Victory, it tastes so sweet
Like honey on my lips
Like the story is complete
An exciting season
An end to it all
The players energized the city
Gave it their all
Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect ending
They brought us together
They gave us hope
They made us feel welcomed
A brotherhood where we belonged
The life of a sports fan
Hard to understand, and tougher to explain
It’s a sickness inside of us
But I mean that in the best way
The love and passion and dedication
That the players have for the city
Can only be matched by what the city shows its players
I haven’t lived in the area in two and a half decades
But the city of Philly still lives inside of me
Green and white runs through my veins
Growing up, I never thought I would see the day
There was always so much heartbreak, so much pain
The thrill of winning the second one made all of it worth it
I never thought I would see the day
Last year there was so much talk when the season fell apart
Didn’t think we could recover so soon
But our boys pushed through the adversity
They bit down on their mouth piece and endured
A redemption story two years in the making
In many ways it embodies my spirit
I can’t be great without the greatness of others
Every day I endure and push through
I am not defined by my adversity
But rather how I learn and grow from it
How I come out on top
Victory, it tastes so sweet
Like honey on my lips
Like the story is complete
We didn’t let them define us
Tell us what we can and cannot do
If we just believe enough, we know we’ll come out on top
