White Flaves

Low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Back in the day knew
Everything was straight when I
When I rocked them low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Back in the day knew
Everything was straight when I
When I rocked them low top white flaves

See nowadays been on a quest to make sure I'm respected
Back in the day I only wish I'd be seen and accepted
My innocence
For years my interest I hid and neglected
Cuz being different won't allowed during my adolescence
For many months I held anxiety for how I walked
And how I talked, And how I looked
Was hindered by my faults
Wasn't my fault
I seen the girls attracted to them cats
Who rocked them checks, from momma's check
And paired 'em best with coogi next to
Ralph and fitted caps to match
I figured that did it
Them white on whites and a hat
Momma couldn't cop me the polo
I had that USPA in black
But you couldn't see it
Unless you was close to me, that's a fact
My optimism was high
It was confidence that I lacked
Knew them forces would put them hoes
On Emily Rose
All of sudden, I'd be that nigga
And niggas would know
Stared in the mirror and decided
I'd finally be cool
Laced them forces
And caught the bus
And headed to the school

Low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Back in the day knew
Everything was straight when I
When I rocked them low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Back in the day knew
Everything was straight when I
When I rocked them low top white flaves

I bust a quick sag
Grabbed my bookbag
Hopped of the bus
Untied the durag
Hoping that new swag
Would make 'em look
I'm on a mission to impress
And be considered like the rest
Hoping shawties give me them cheeks
After they see me in them checks
To my surprise it was like
Nobody noticed the drip
Thought to myself
"Man this shit here's a trip"
And once I got to the crib
All of that desperation for assimilating
Left me agitated
Had a revelation
Fuck a validation
The next day, said
"Fuck a Coogi!"
Went and grabbed my normal shit
Changed the whole fit
But made sure I kept the kicks
Hit 'em with a toothbrush
Then hit the bus, can't even lie
Soon as I sat down
A couple shawties gave the boy an eye
Walked inside, and got some dap from my dawgs
Said I was fresh
Told 'em thanks, though I had took it in jest
But more agreed, you can guess
Hearing some compliments instilled some confidence in my stride
But now they noticed, I just
Didn't know why
I just figured it was the

Low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Back in the day knew
Everything was straight when I
When I rocked them low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Low top white flaves
Back in the day knew
Everything was straight when I
When I rocked them low top white flaves
