"Baseball" was slang for a certain stimulant. E.G.B.O.K stands for, "everything's gonna be ok". This track, was about loosing focus and knowing it. There's a point when one has to put aside indulgence if one is to achieve one's goal. This track was typical self-therapy for me... talking myself back to the right path.
lyrics
I'm playing baseball with myself
Stack the morals on the shelf
Make me like to feel nothing at all
Dear I choose my own moments to fall
And grow, to show, I really got a spark
And though, I know, I'm shooting in the dark
Some day, everything will be ok
Bloody nose, my heart never beat this way
There's a line I can cross that could toss this all away
So maintain your focus
I know girl, it seems pretty hopeless
But every mission has it's ups and downs
And if you make it you can take the crown
And show, and know, you've really got a spark
And though, I know, you're shooting in the dark
Some day, I swear, we'll make it to the sea
I think, everything will be ok
