[00:01.19] I had a lady once stop me on the street
[00:04.25]
[00:05.20] I was wearing white shoes And she says
[00:07.44] "I'm glad you're sticking with the white shoes"
[00:09.04]
[00:09.84] She says "It makes me feel good"
[00:10.89] Take this good advice
[00:14.25]
[00:15.87] If they're gonna judge you for life
[00:18.98]
[00:20.92] Say we can't always be fly
[00:25.29]
[00:26.21] We gon' be good long as them sneakers white
[00:29.67]
[00:31.27] You'll be alright
[00:35.61]
[00:36.18] Said you'll be alright
[00:40.43]
[00:41.18] Said you'll be alright
[00:46.36] Said you'll be alright
[00:52.21] Gucci S Dots whole hood had 'em
[00:54.36] Ice cream 'fore the hypebeasts that's into fashion
[00:56.44]
[00:57.31] Being forreal yo try being Pharrell
[00:59.42] When your black ass in a back class the fronting was real
[01:02.58] No Lauren London we was on a budget
[01:04.48] You know sharin' Old Navy so the army could be fresh in public
[01:07.91] Where the sneaker stores and laundromats get all the money
[01:10.36] Cause it ain't 'bout what you're doin' 'bout how you're lookin'
[01:12.71]
[01:13.22] When they love you for your status and your catalog
[01:15.55] And everybody got a jersey to play along
[01:17.60]
[01:18.19] Back then the hoes checkin' for your zapatos
[01:20.67] So even dirty niggas had the foams
[01:22.84] Take this good advice
[01:26.46]
[01:28.07] If they're gonna judge you for life
[01:31.40]
[01:33.17] Say we can't always be fly
[01:37.62]
[01:38.49] We gon' be good long as them sneakers white
[01:41.79]
[01:43.56] You'll be alright
[01:47.78]
[01:48.43] Said you'll be alright
[01:53.01]
[01:53.55] Said you'll be alright
[01:58.65] Said you'll be alright
[02:03.00]
[02:04.11] Biotech trainers on the way to work
[02:06.58] And we would quietly complain while Eric would lurk
[02:09.00] That was the PG Plaza manager managin' us
[02:11.52] Yeah I'm standin' in Lucky 7s but slingin' them Lugz
[02:14.16] Still have them Js for the low low and I could get 'em early
[02:17.03] But I'm not without a conscience I see people out there hurtin'
[02:19.57] Got 'em for Penny Foams that was bought at this very store
[02:22.14] And I think that was my shift then again I'm not very sure
[02:24.65]
[02:25.80] And that's a lot that can get to ya
[02:27.17] When you're not sellin' drugs but the outcome is similar
[02:29.79] Cause out come them niggas with pistols tellin' you give 'em up
[02:32.46] Now out come the moms with tissues cause you ain't give a f**k
[02:35.12] Free lunch for everyone income was very uh
[02:37.79] On the second and 16th everyone would have every 1
[02:40.33] And Reebok would carry pump and that's not the scary part
[02:42.84] These niggas love white shoes so much they'd be buried in them
[02:45.53]
[02:49.04] I was wearing white shoes And she says
[02:54.21] "I'm glad you're sticking with the white shoes"
[02:56.00]
[02:59.50] She says "It makes me feel good"
[03:00.92]
[03:06.43] You'll be alright
[03:10.13]
[03:11.44] You'll be alright
[03:15.48]
[03:16.55] You'll be alright
[03:20.47]
[03:21.55] You'll be alright
[03:26.84] Take this good advice
[03:30.20]
[03:31.91] If they're gonna judge you for life
[03:35.20]
[03:37.02] Say we can't always be fly
[03:41.41]
[03:42.33] We gon' be good long as them sneakers white
[03:45.61]
[03:47.44] You'll be alright
[03:51.50]
[03:52.32] Said you'll be alright
[03:56.51]
[03:57.35] Said you'll be alright
[04:01.64]
[04:02.49] Said you'll be alright
[04:09.41] No matter how good or lavish us niggas got it
[04:11.26]
[04:12.12] We just a bunch of ravenous addicts living for fancy haberdashery
