The (Fresh) Bot of the 'Birds

Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the bot of a team called Firebirds

In the Firebird shop built and raised
On the table was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out buildin' codin' all cool
And all shooting some boulders after school
When a couple of bots who were ranked up on top
Started earning spots to the Championship
I got a spot off the list and my team said yes
They said 'You're movin’ to the Champs in Saint Louis'

I cheered and planned with them day after day
And they packed my tool case and sent me on my way
They gave me a kiss and then they gave me my ticket.
I got in my crate and said, 'I might as well kick it’.

FedEx, yo this is cool
Sitting in my crate with boxes of tools.
Is this what the people of STL living like?
Hmm this might be alright.

But wait I hear they're scaling, scoring, all that
Is this the type of place that they just send this cool cat?
I don't think so
I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the bot of the ‘birds
Well, the crate landed and when I came out
There was a girl who looked like a friend standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get inspected yet
I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning, drove away

I whistled for my team and when they came near
The cart said 433 and it had a handle to steer
If anything I could say that this cart was sweet
And I thought ‘Let’s get on it' - 'Yo, home to my pit’
I pulled up to the pit about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the mentors 'Yo team see ya later'
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the bot of ‘birds



XOXO

P.S. These are the types of things I come up with when I am stuck in a crate all day. Can't wait until I get to Saint Louis!
