1995

[Chorus]

One, two, three, three, four, five

If a nigga touch me, he gon' meet four-five

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995, uh

One, two, three, three, four, five

If a nigga touch me, he gon' meet four-five

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995, uh

[Bridge]

Sharp shooter, play the game

Slam dunk, we don't lay it up

Got a bad bitch layin' up

I'm so charged up right now

They throw shade at us

Came a long way from the backyard, yeah

(Long way from the backyard, yeah)

(Came a long way from the backyard, yeah)

[Verse 1]

Seventeen years of mama comin' home

No hug, no love, no kiss, not even a "Hello"

Just "Did you wash the dishes? Did you fold my clothes?"

Oh no, let me hurry up, mama on the road

What's love? I say, "IDK," that mean I don't know

In this case, barely room for love, barely room for growth

I wanna cry but I never do, it ain't good to show

I wanna die but I never do, can't go like a ho (Oh)

I tip-toe around the idea of family ties (That's right)

Just me, Mom, and Martin, broken family ties

Seein' pictures of 'em tyin' a knot, both of 'em are smilin'

Same pictures of 'em tyin' a knot falling from their fighting

Would've thought it was normal if I didn't watch TV

I'm seein' white people eatin' with their families happily

Only time we ate together was eatin' at Applebee's

Parents had so many jobs, our family tree was an apple tree

I never saw my step-father kiss my mama, not once, that's for real

We ain't need no AC, the household was so cold, I'm gettin' chills

[Chorus]

One, two, three, three, four, five

If a nigga touch me, he gon' meet four-five

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995, uh

One, two, three, three, four, five

If a nigga touch me, he gon' meet four-five

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995, uh

[Verse 2]

Have you ever been to an immigrant's home?

Where the straight As and bein' a doctor was all they know

'Cause they come from struggle, work to get a house

And now they workin' double, can't even enjoy it

They lookin' for you to be the one to graduate and bring the joy up

But if you was me, then you would be the one to make 'em need a lawyer

And pay for the court fees all 'cause a nigga didn't wanna look dorky, off with a nigga

Four years, that's a four-piece, no peace, no peace, no peace, no peace, no peace, no peace

That's how it sound inside of my mama's head

Stepfather ain't comin' home, he gettin' head

Claimin' he busy, he on a business trip

When really, he with a trick, she suckin' d—

I had to let that sink in

'Cause when them days came, it affected the way I see men

I had to let that sink in

'Cause when my mama cried, it affected the way I see revenge

And I ain't even know it but

Everything I did was results of how I was growin' up

And growin' nuts and growin' balls, and goin' nuts and makin' calls

And hangin' up in bitches faces, running up in people's place

[Chorus]

One, two, three, three, four, five

If a nigga touch me

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995

I'ma shoot like Jordan, 1995, uh

One, two, three, three, four, five

If a nigga touch me (He was killed right on the corner from his own home)

Jordan

Jordan, 1995, uh

[Outro]

Sharp shooter, play the game

Slam dunk, we don't lay it up

Got a bad bitch layin' up

I'm so charged up right now

They throw shade at us

(Shade at us, shade at us, shade at us, shade at us)

They throw shade at us

(Shade at us, shade at us, shade at us, shade at us)

Sharp shooter, play the game

Slam dunk, we don't lay it up

Got a bad bitch layin' up

I'm so charged up right now

They throw shade at us

(Shade at us, shade at us, shade at us, shade at us)

They throw shade at us

(Shade at us, shade at us, shade at us, shade at us)
