Does anybody here know why that happened? When a player When a player wants to become an owner When a player When a player that's done more for the league than the league could've done for him When a player that made the NBA wants to become an owner of the team that he brought so much glory to, a team he brought so much story to A team that has his statue in the front of the motherf**ing building But do you know what the owners of that team told MJ? You're just a player, homeboy You can't get no pay You can't own sh** They told Michael Jordan he couldn't own sh**! We should've never ever let MJ play for the Wizards We should've never ever let MJ play for the Wizards Now y'all know why MJ went to play for the Wizards Because this very team wouldn't let him be an owner I'm talking about one of the most important people in our civilization One of the most influential people in our civilization They tried to marginalize And in order to make his point he had to put on a motherf**ing Wizards jersey To let y'all know “Oh yes I am gonna be an owner just like Magic Johnson” We should've never let MJ ever play for the Wizards Never never never never let him go Because til I die MJ represents the Bulls So tonight I'm about to put my 23 on So tonight I gotta put my 23 on
