Wes - New Shoes lyrics

(ladada ldadada) I'm living check to check but got rims on the new ride... (ladada ldadada) I'm shackled deep in debt but just copped some Jordan 5's... (ladada ldadada) I'm living like d**h but there's a lot more to life.. (ladada ldadada) Post up . . I am cool, peep the new shoes & hop in the coop And lets' riiiiiide....... Young man, young queen you gotta get right What you take in feeds your purpose, vision and plight/ See what the serphant does is clip your wings and take your flight So you can't take flight, and you well grounded/ But you well rounded, so why they call you square?! Tap into God's power an extension cord for Civil Rights/ Right fist high, modern version of John Carlos Running on tracks with a purpose to bring stars closer/ I am worth more than fresh kicks And so thankful for God's favor I'm blessed with/ I see an entry sign and I envision an exit In a place where being black, make the cops pull your car over/ I wanna make change, I'm one of God's seeds Your kicks are expensive but are your bars free?/ I wonder if Pete would have survived if he knew the truth But instead my dude died over some new shoes… Many little kids they literally came from nothing So they overcompensate and make something and try to stunt with it/ But why waste paychecks trying to prove a point When in the long run our family & children are still struggling/ Make ya bread , but stay righteous when you live Before them vintage Jordan 5's cop some diapers for your kids/ There's a higher authority which is aligned with priorities That's why rappers making fame off making it rain bore me/ Take your time young queen, you are worth more than one night And smoking is not attractive princess so get your lungs right/ I know you frustrated single mom, but treat your son right So when he grows up and shine light and that sun (son) bright!/ And teach your daughter that she should get married first And that her body is a temple created with a rare worth/ This is for the poor girls embarra**ed when they go to school Your innocence is worth more than a pair of new shoes....
