[Intro] |
|
Welcome to the NBA, you're almost there |
|
We getting close, we got scouts looking at us |
|
This is worldwide, this is beautiful |
|
We in the best hotels, eating the best food |
|
The biggest houses, the nicest cars |
|
Beautiful women, Hoop Life! |
|
[Verse] |
|
My material mind state, trynna stay on the court |
|
I came from the court, no judges |
|
This the hoop court, All-Star Game, the only judge |
|
That throw numbers at me |
|
Looking at the city, Oakland heals like Gotham |
|
Oakland heals like Gotham, cause ******s watching |
|
Never put past no one, copped like the old Ones |
|
******s ready for war, like shogun |
|
'Bout to play on TV, cable access |
|
Newspaper, local access, who could match this? |
|
******, I would do a backflip |
|
I'm trynna get out this mattress |
|
Only time I feel good, is when a ****** at practice |
|
Trynna make shots with my left hand |
|
Gotta stop looking like Strahan, money ain't a thing |
|
****** Instagram, I'm just trynna get instant grams |
|
Man, my rap's old |
|
I made it so instant, damn |
|
Pulling ******s off for a instance |
|
I got this ******, man, ******t, man, it's incense |
|
You feel me? I smoke it, you love what you can't see |
|
This game up to speed |
|
Lord, help me, cause I'm seeing coke |
|
And I don't know what to do, I'm just seeing boats |
|
Zips in the locker room, the coach know I'm selling |
|
Every time before the game |
|
He always stay tripping |
|
I ain't got no patience, coach, I'm just trynna make it |
|
This is the reason why |
|
There's patients out here, man, ******s dying |
|
My time coming up man, I'm stationed |
|
My time coming for real, I'm rap |
|
My eyes open up, I'm running |
|
My head's peeking up to them ******s that's coming |
|
Traumatized by the game, putting ******s under graves |
|
For that simple ******t, this is simple, ****** |
|
This hoop life is all I got |
|
This my last shot, this my last rock |
|
I'm passing rocks up the court |
|
Selling **** in the locker room, like it's my last shot |
|
[Outro] |
|
Keep your head focused, young'n |
|
Make sure you're doing well with your body |
|
Don't hurt yourself |
|
Hoop Life, we staying focused |
|
Don't put no drugs in your body |
|
Keep it focused for this Hoop Life when we playing the season |
|
They trynna take you out the game, homie |
|
They don't love you |
|
They just trynna drug you up, feed you fast food, and get on to the next |
|
They don't give a ****** about you |
|
Hoop Life mixtape, let's go |
