[00:39.90]I was seven years old, when I got my first pair
[00:44.10]And I stepped outside
[00:45.90]And I was like, momma, this air bubble right here, it's gonna make me fly
[00:52.60]I hit back-court, and when I jumped, I jumped, I swear I got so high
[00:59.20]I touched the net, Mom I touched the net, this is the best day of my life
[01:05.80]Air Max's were next,
[01:07.70]That air bubble, that mesh
[01:09.60]The box, the smell, the stuffin', the tread, in school
[01:13.50]I was so cool, I knew that I couldn't crease 'em
[01:16.40]My friends couldn't afford 'em, Four stripes, some Adidas
[01:19.50]On the court I wasn't the best, but my kicks were like the pros
[01:23.00]Yo, I stick out my tongue so everyone could see that logo
[01:26.50]Nike Air Flight, but bad was so dope
[01:29.40]And then my friend Carlos' brother got murdered for his fours, whoa
[01:37.30]See he just wanted a jump shot, but they wanted to start a cult though
[01:41.30]Didn't wanna get caught, from Genesee Park to Othello
[01:44.40]You could clown for those Probings, with the Velcro, those were not tight
[01:47.80]I was trying to fly without leaving the ground, 'cause I wanted to be like Mike, right
[01:53.30]Wanted to be him, I wanted to be that guy, I wanted to touch the rim
[01:57.80]I wanted to be cool, and I wanted to fit in,
[02:01.00]I wanted what he had, America, it begins
[02:04.70]I wanna fly
[02:06.50]Can you take me far away
[02:11.20]Gimmie a star to reach for
[02:13.80]Tell me what it takes
[02:15.60]And I'll go so high
[02:18.10]I'll go so high
[02:19.80]My feet won't touch the ground
[02:22.40]Stitch my wings
[02:24.00]And pull the strings
[02:25.50]I bought these dreams
[02:27.80]That all fall down
[02:30.30]We want what we can't have, commodity makes us want it
[02:33.60]So expensive, damn, I just got to flaunt it
[02:36.60]Got to show 'em, so exclusive, this that new shit
[02:39.90]A hundred dollars for a pair of shoes I would never hoop in
[02:43.70]Look at me, look at me, I'm a cool kid
[02:46.80]I'm an individual, yea, but I'm part of a movement
[02:50.20]My movement told me be a consumer and I consumed it
[02:53.00]They told me to just do it, I listened to what that swoosh said
[02:56.70]Look at what that swoosh did. See it consumed my thoughts
[03:00.30]Are you stupid, don't crease 'em, just leave 'em in that box
[03:03.10]Strangled by these laces, laces I can barely talk
[03:06.30]That's my air bubble and I'm lost, if it pops
[03:09.70]We are what we wear, we wea...........
