Went up to the courts - like - Wicker Park court
The half HALF court - my shits still sore
I walk the blocks and say what up
What else? Hit the courts and lay one up
And one – used to hoop with the best of them
Now I'm taking the bus with the rest of them
First name Home – middle name just missed it
Last name Grown – I'll be there in an instant
Take a walk on my day off – ayo
I ain't paid though - with a pocket full of pesos
Still – I'm millionaire – and I feel you man
Foundation - building plan
All in the mental – fortitude
With the bar set high cause there’s more to do
And always higher to reach
Who would've thought
Making a living on how I speak
Ooh and awwwh – just let it marinate
Wrote it in my book and then I tear the page
(refrain)
One time for the life - its all lovely
One day at a time - so don't rush me
One heart and mind - I'm on to something
Naturally - give me time to breathe
(hook)
I want – to go
For it – for it all
(verse2)
I'm enveloped in the sound
Developed a step pressed all up in the ground
A fossil found from a long way lost
At the dig site – right - all day long
Just a metaphor for the letter of the law
Have a good one – but a better one tomorrow
As the feather falls
We all gone with the wind and the weather y'all
Life was all simple all tether ball
In my neighbors yard - Back then
yep yep – my aim was far – assassin
But then class would begin – And rather attend
I was with my friends with our backs to the fence
Just laughing – pretending – it was never ending
Story of the year – every year – sun setting
A lasting impression
Gas in the tank
And then we're fast to the exit
