Starting by Default (Ryan Gomes) Lyrics

Yo I'm Ryan Gomes

This one's going out to Al D in Seekonk Massachusetts, what up dog?

I'm kind of starting by default as of late on the Celtics due to injuries

I don't know if I'm going to keep my starting spot but

I'm sure going to keep playing

First Big Al went down with a sprain

Then Perkins dislocated his shoulder, a shame

To see but for me it was time to step up to the starting rotation

Giving Celtics Nation education

In true hustle I'm an undersized four

Crashing boards like its one against four or five

Man alive not even hitting my stride

And I nearly double double every time

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - and I'm starting by default

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - I got hustle I got heart

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - I know and play my part

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - and I'll grab a thousand rebounds!

At least I'm going to try to

I don't know if y'all know this

But I got a little offensive game in my repertoire too

And if you didn't know

I'm the all-time leading scorer at Providence College

Like Eric Williams I got heart and I got knowledge

Call it b-ball IQ and what's more is true

I got the same height and wingspan as one Elton Brand

But I'm no Clipper or klepto, reaching for Pepto

I'm stealing weakside offensive boards like a pitbull

Straight through the lane with finesse so fine

If this is just my third start, imagine my prime

Imagine in time our starting front line

Of Perkins and Jefferson and me off the pine

Maybe play a little three, sounds good to me

Doc keep getting me minutes I'll show you how it's gonna be

I'm like J Reed with infinite potential

All you stat keepers grab your pencils I'll fill up your stat sheets

I'm Ryan Gomes and I'm here

He's Ryan Gomes

He's Ryan Gomes

He's Ryan Gomes

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes

I'm Bryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - and I'm starting by default

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - I got hustle I got heart

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - said I know and play my part

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - and I'll grab a thousand rebounds!

Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - and I'm starting by default

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - I got hustle I got heart

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - said I know and play my part

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes - and I'll grab a thousand rebounds!

Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes

I'm Ryan Gomes - he's Ryan Gomes
