MOOSE - Hardwood Classics lyrics
rate meOver and ahead of my time
Even if we never on time
Steady on the grind
Even if we never recline
Never will I never get mine
I’mma start it off like
Right up off the bat, fuck who guarding all night
Step up on the field, you might start it alright
At the end of the night you’ll be carted off quite
Confused why you tried, bruised up, denied
Automatic lace my Marty McFly’s
Hit 88 miles, time to see serious shit
From the opening tip, feel inferior, bitch
Cheerleaders sidelines just twerking a bit
Drive it down the baseline just working to dish
While everybody stuck here doing the same thing
I might as well take the ball all the way in
While everybody here sounding like an AAU coach
Talking ‘bout how I should settle for Juco
Fuck that, I’m too cold
I’mma do college chicks, graduate and then go and do pros
Then retire, go sign as the new coach
And pulli hoes off the bench and let Ku coach
More Muggsy than Manute Bol
But dog, trust me, you don’t wanna reach or guard too close
Man, I still got handles, still got home court advantage
Whether a stadium or a studio
Still hungry, still got the munchies
Still grind, get the money or get a clue, bro
Over and ahead of my time
Even if we never on time
Steady on the grind
Even if we never recline
Never will I never get mine
Hit the hardwood as hard as I could
Sixth man of the year till I’m starting for good
Sure, it’d be good, be James Harden it up
But I’d rather take lessons, play harder for us
We playing with hall of fame sliders in this
Till the hall of fame call our name, enshrine us and shit
Back to training camp, I got the whole camp with me
Still sticking to my guns and my family
No AK, I’m speaking symbolically
Back from vacay, adding more stamps again
Balled overtime, spent a lot of cash again
Working overtime, tryna get it back again
Work for the piece of shit’s over at Tommy Hill
Clocked in, get my check, get the fuck up out of there
Went from lifting boxes of that lame outerwear
To saving up designs to make my own outfit here
Find a home outta here
Split up the rock and sell my good half of the Rockawear
That’s the reality, it’s the way it gotta be
Learned from day one we all tryna get broccoli
But there’s way more of the galaxy I gotta see
Show ‘em a better way to flow, make the hotter beat
Just tryna pay the bills at the end of the day
Keep it more real with more money to make
Can't forget my birthplace, heart still in the P.I.
Loyal to B.K. and listening to B.I.
Circa RJ, Kidd on the fast break
She say I’m Kerry Kittles when I hit it from the behind
Rewind the game tape, study it for game day
Fucked up y'all defense running all the same plays
Replay our game so all of y'all can catch this
History in the making, hardwood classics
Over and ahead of my time
Even if we never on time
Steady on the grind
Even if we never recline
Never will I never get mine
Do Mose go hard in the paint? Yes, he do
Turkoglu with the face looking like Perkins do
Tayshaun prince in my city till I'm Bernard King
Grinding, doing it, moving it like Sacramento things
Dennis Rodman how I hustle then I hit the pivot
Dream shake, I'm living in the block, get it how I get it
Earning my penny the harder way
Working till my heart decay
But never will I never get mine
Steady on the grind
Pressure heavy but I'm ready, throw a dime
2000 Vince Carter when I rise
Catch me with my arm in the hoop
Flexing on the net
Flexing every session till I'm lacing them checks
Air Jordan uno with the coolest Moose you know
Illest backcourt, too since Lebron and Wade duo
Doing our thing till we cha ching, motherfucker
Spalding, balling, the stadium's calling
If rap was a game I'd be MVP
Sponsored by N I K E in a Mercedes
Living lavish, splitting cabbage with my family
If dreams really happened, David Stern wouldn't grant ‘em
But scouts recognizing the talent
My team is rocking your campus
And after all of us drafted we rim rocking the planet
On the real they couldn't make this line
Hang my jersey when it’s time, 2 NAI
