What do you see when you look in the mirror? I hope everything.
See we measure you by who you are - we don't care about a ring.
I know it's most important to you but you are most important to us.
You are the person we cheer for and the person we trust.
Now why God has plagued you with injury - one will never know.
It's like finding the perfect rose and all we want is to see it grow.
Haters can say you're finished, but I'm finished with the haters.
How little they matter - to criticize a player only as spectators.
But we will get there one day, one day we will have it.
As tangible as possible - we will reach and grab it.
We all know you can and we know you will.
People call this a mountain, we call it a small hill.
A set back is the perfect set up for a comeback, and we wait for that special time.
When you come back and say "I'm taking what's mine."
What you give to this city people spend their whole lives trying to give.
Bringing happiness to people and inspiring young kids.
Born and raised in Englewood and look at you now,
At a completely different place but still the same person somehow.
You have made our jaws drop, you have broken each new mold you set,
You have given us game winners that we will never will forget.
You have given your heart to this city - and in return you have stolen the city's heart.
And even with you out, we never feel apart.
You keep us going somehow and you're the one in pain,
We are selfish enough to miss you as you miss the game you love playing.
But that's what separates us - that's why we are your fans.
And we will stick by you because we trust in all God's plans.
As you rehab, I hope you know you have so many people thinking of you.
Fantasizing about your return and the the great things you will do.
You're gonna be great? Man, we already know it.
It took us about just 2 seconds after watching you to show it.
Heal as you need and remember this today:
They can cut into your knee but they can never take your heart away.
We know you will bring us home the ultimate gift, but just know we feel like champions each game we see you play,
So trust in Gods plan for you and it will all make sense one day.
I do hope you can somehow know this and you can push hard and come back healthy and quick, Because Derrick rose is already a champion - all he needs is the ship.
