10. Basketball My first true love, before anything, I have for you a burning passion Because when I see you, I see more than a ball of leather and a basket.

11. I see an island that I’m owner of, and there’s no one there but me, And only when I’m in this place do I ever feel this free. I feel I can express myself in a completely different way.
