Hoop Dreams To Rap Dreams
[Intro: Rapsody]
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
[Verse 1: Rapsody]
Cruisin' 40 east, Cold as [?]
At the end of Kooley High, I'm so Hoodie-Fleeced
Obtuse seat, Bumpin' black Donte, little 3 Andre, 96, 28, yeah
Young OJ, I play down street
Like childhood meets, a hunnid yard dash bare-feet
Cause it's been a long week
Like Mississippi words and leaks that run off in the sea
I just wanna clear my mind yo, ride out in peace
Put my thoughts together, and think of my fella
I ain't touched in a while, like angels named devil
So I'm missin' his smile, though I can't have him right now
So I'm passin' the time
My therapy from work, and all of the grind
Another day through the life like the same green way
Its gold glow shows over USA, rocking usual [?]
Way back in the day
Cool, I wouldn't trade it for no money
All the love for the culture, yo, it's so sunny
Chasing dreams like Broncos in sunny LA
And I'm the driver, OJ
So who you're chasin' is me
Toppa told em, its no one touchin' me see
[Bridge: Rapsody]
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
[Verse 2: Mez]
Honestly this industry, I've been ready to bomb it
But I gotta touch the hem of his garment before I arm it
So I won't be caught up in the money or being charming
But that's something that comes naturally
Send your people after me
Yeah I know it might be alarmin', what I'm performin'
But nobody I'm harmin', I'm just harvestin', farmin', done
Equivalent to none, like one minus one
Or the Catholic women whose skin don't see the sun
King Mezatron, always been a [?]
Flavor terror crack flow like a Reagan Era
But not distributed homie, cause what I make is rarer
Royal purple and some gold, I'm a Laker wearer
A young highness, caught in all of his flyness
Me and Diddy ridin' around, thinkin' bout timeless
Breakin' G-Shocks with faces covered in diamonds
Chronologically relevant, dinosaurs to the mayans
[Bridge: Rapsody]
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
[Verse 3: Skyzoo]
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, I was penny exactly
So when my knees caved, I relayed to the back-beat
When the streets waved, I replayed what grabbed me
And the replay was a relay on a track meet
With E-pluribus tatted everywhere you movin'
And legal tender ribbons conceivin' better beginnings
And breathings bitter as Winter
You see the end as you enter
We could enter it different and be the end of the enders
Get it, get it how you comfortable
When comfortability is everything that you runnin' to
Your shoes through, like a marathon, shit eludes you
And be a lost cause, expensive tastes that use you
We be all in all, so if we be called to the wall
Shoulders all touchin' and we the tallest of tall
We be all in all, so if we be called to the wall
Motherfuckers will see the flag before they fall
[Bridge: Rapsody]
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
From hoop dreams to rap dreams, r-a-p
Just another day around my way, you'll see
