Trippin’ (Hoop Dreams)
[Verse 1]

Once upon a time I had a dream
I was ballin’ in the league
ANY TEAM
That’s every player’s dream
Since the age of thirteen
Or even longer as I think
Adolescence passed just as fast as I could blink
Driving in the paint
Deposit off the bank
Cashing in them free-throws
See how hard I’m ballin’ just by looking at my soles
Blackened up my toes
Had a couple ankle rolls
But that’s the way it go
It comes and it goes
I wanna be the goat
I be doing the most
Aerial acrobatics
See me flying coast to coast
I don’t brag
I boast
Leave ya burnt like toast
You’ll see I’m gone when you see no more smoke
Light you up like a candle
Yeah I got them handles
That quick cross
Leave ya ankles dismantled
The jumpshot is butter
Splashing like water
Making waves from ATL back round to California
Take charge and take a charge
6’2” but living large
Hard worker, big heart
Bench or starter I do my part
I always…
