51 Steps

51 Steps
Underneath a sea of flags
a thosand memories live
In the hearts of every son
Who once his all did give
Beginning as a skinny kid
Who dreamed of wearing red
longing to descend the steps
His heroes all have tread
Believing in the power within
to earn his lofty goal
to see a playoff banner waving
High above The Bowl
Tremendous cost he gladly pays
In blood and sweat and tears
Knowing that the dividend
Will last throughout the years
Never running from defeat
but facing it head on
Determined to become not weak
But rather be made strong
And when he climbs all 51
Red Steps one final time
He'll know down deep inside his heart
He laid it on the line
Because, you see, the truth is this
it's more than just a game
Cause once you've worn the red and white
You'll never be the same
For any time The Mustangs lose
There dies a piece of you
But with each Red Antz' victory
Your life becomes renewed!!!

to the video didn't show all the bad things that the sweetwater players do on and off the field. They can't beat real teams.
