作曲 : Gary G-Wiz & Carlton Ridenhour 作词 :   Jesus is the best thing that happened to the game Since the tennis shoe was invented On the outs I lace up, the world I face up To score on anybody, it's war on everybody The new guys come in blood shot between the eyes As long as their sellin' that merchandise And one what goes in, don't come back The color may be green but it's also black And red I know many heads that spent bloodshed Cursed in converses, dead in Pro Keds Now every Tom, Dick, Harry or Joe Smith Skip the spauldings, pony's, and K-Swiss High school and college coaches gettin' Kickbacks from scholarships and them slave ships Converses for the pros, kids with Filas Reebok, Nikes, New Balance my Adidas Ain't part of that clique, spendin' all the chits on kicks PS in the politics Politics of them sneaker pimps Politics of them sneaker pimps Politics of them sneaker pimps Politics of them sneaker pimps Hey Dr. J where you got those moves Was it gettin' high in the schools, can it be the shoes? Truth is truth, I tear the fuckin' roof off the house Expose them foes with my mouth I see corporate hands up in foreign lands With the man behind the man gettin' paid behind the man I hold the rocket, stop the hand in my pocket 200 a pair but I'm addicted to the gear They'll make me do things on the court to amaze ya I heard they make 'em for a buck 8 in Asia They came a long way baby since Clyde Frazier had Pumas, pullin' mad consumers Them Filas I'm feelin' but I cant touch the ceiling Them New Balance hits 120 million The last thing I need is Adidas terminatin' my contract For wearing those old pair of wack Reebok low tops covered up by floppy socks Gave me a jump shot before I got jumped and shot Duckin' a word from my sponsor Trying to end my year like Kwaanza Converses for the pros, kids with Filas Reebok, Nikes, New Balance my Adidas Ain't part of that clique, spendin' all the chits on kicks PS in the politics Politics of them sneaker pimps Politics of them sneaker pimps Politics of them sneaker pimps Politics of them sneaker pimps Been paid since the 8th grade 11th grader, pop the champagne 12th grade start the campaign Gettin' fame, sign my name in the dotted frame Nike got me pullin' re's and g's Shit, I can get shot for these Please God give me 20 more years in these knees To maintain without this game I gotta do keys And I don't wanna go there because it's fuckin' everywhere Factories wanna see me, kids wanna be me Behind the wheels and endorsement deals It's the politics and the tricks behind the kicks
