Dyme Def - Fresher In My Kicks lyrics

A scuff on my shoe represents what I've been through... It represents what I've been through... [Verse 1: S.E.V.] OK... Listen... The first J-Os dropped One year before I was born My brother had the black and reds But his got torn Used to watch videos of Run-DMC They always had some fresh shells You never see them creased Mama said, "You can judge a man by his shoes" That's why I was the man of the school Ran with a crew that knew If their kicks wasn't new, then they wouldn't be cool So when I got a pair I had to get two So when those'd wear I had another to recruit When my life was too uptempo I went and copped some Nike Uptempos My girl was telling me I was messing up my temple "How are you into something so simple?" I'm sorry, shoes raise my confidence Besides, I have to impress the audience [Hook] A scuff on my shoe represents what I've been through A time, a place, it's what I've lived through I'm fresher in my kicks Fresher in my kicks, uh, fresher in my kicks A scuff on my shoe represents what I've been through A time, a place, it's what I've lived through I'm fresher in my kicks Fresher in my kicks, uh, fresher in my kicks [Verse 2: Fearce Villan] (let me talk to 'em man) For me it started in grade six White on white K-Swiss cla**ics I didn't have a lot of chips But they matched a lot of fits I'm fresher in my kicks I left my Gary Payton's unzipped And those J-O 11s I couldn't miss I remember when just buying a pair was taking a risk (why's that?) Soon as you left the mall had people eyeing your sh** Soon as I put 'em on I was feeling invincible He had the same shoes on but still looking typical! Growed over haters in my Nike SBs No crease in my jeans with a 'Fresh Goods' Tee And I'm good despite what haters think about me like My shoes won't tell you everything about me like I didn't have a rough bottom like the G-Nikes But now I'm sitting at the top in my Air Flights I'm a rare type stepping in my kicks But I'm fresher in my kicks, yeah, fresher in my kicks [Hook] [Verse 3: Brainstorm] First day of high school, yup I was a freshman Copped a pair of Jordan 11s I was a fresh man Infatuation with Mike he was my best friend Air Force Ones to Js rock nothing less than I still rock the same Js I think they were the 8s that I copped in 8th grade A scuff on my shoe represents what I've been through Still go to the club and order shots of Ace of Spades My fresh air my kicks, so materialistic Y'all inferior to my kicks, so imperialistic If you judge a man by his kicks and if you talk with him Maybe you should try a pair of his on and walk with him You see the scuffs on my leather? They let you know I made it through some very hard weather Am I wearing down? Never But the scuffs on my shoe represents what I've been through Yours are pretty clean, so what am I to think about you? [Hook] Come walk a mile in the pair I wear Come walk a mile in the pair I wear Come walk a mile in the pair I wear And I'm getting better year by year Come walk a mile in the pair I wear And I'm getting better year by year Come walk a mile in the pair I wear...
