Hoop Dreams
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Went from basketball to 8 balls Almost got caught up with that 8 ball what a close call
Felt my back against the wall cause the gas was on
Winter time space heater, electric stove on
Momma in Johnson County, correctional
A lot of wrong I thought that I could correct it though
Lil Bro'nem in a foster home
Just hate they had to go through the same shit I went through
My grandpa kept saying that it'll be okay
Had that bag before so money just really ain't a thing
What I wouldn't give to see his face again
Hear his voice again, a tear drop just hit my pen
Had dreams of playing for the Chicago Bulls
Charlotte Hornets, the Minnesota Timberwolves
Thought it was possible when I seen Jabo
Doggin' in high school, killin' with the jump shot
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Used to post up like Olajuwon
Now I'm posted in this spot with surveillance on
Wore number 34 like Barkley
In West Middle School, hooping Jordan number 12
Ended up working a digi scale
Trying to rake in plenty mail
Best friend crossed me out like Iverson
A plus to me cause I accept all my minuses
We carry weapons with no licenses Extended clip, beam and no serial
Ain't loyal then what the hell you in it for
It ain't for M's, then what the hell you pitching for
And you can catch me in get it mode
Came a long way from rocks in the frigid cold
In front of R&R, right at Boston Daniels
Could've been teammates with OJ Mayo
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
Traded my hoop dreams for coke dreams
Heroine fantasies and dope fiends
My jump shot for a 40 Glock
My teammates for the mob
