Hoop Dreams Video (MV)

They say I got a way with handling my words
And nah, it wasn't easy building up my worth
Sacrifices made, they didn't believe at first
Hit the cut off now they wanna tell me that they hurt
Try telling that to momma that just lost her church
Now they sold the building like a pack of woods from the clerk
I'm a jerk now, going back to work now
Feeling motivated put 'em in a f*cking hearse now
My dawgs eating, ring the bell now it's time for the chow
Broken legs before you'll ever see me take a bow
Takes a minute before, you the one that they talk about
Eyes everywhere like I'm walking through the crowd

I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I rather stand alone then have a lot of fake friends
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I rather stand alone then have a lot of fake friends

I didn't really know what it took to make a dream
Since I was thirteen I could see me in the league
I swear no one could ever see me once I strapped the cleats
Had me in a tournament, it was a clean sweep
Thought I had it on the field till life made me see
I ain't the only nigga saying that it's gone be me
It put everything in perspective, had me analyzing thought like a detective
Intercepted, came back I'm reflective
Of whatever kind of attitude represented
In front of me, it could be fixed with an apology
But it go, hand and hand like that greed monopoly
Since a youngin I knew that's not how we taught to be
But some people don't take kindly towards the honesty
I got no worries so I brush it off me modestly
Cause there won't be another me, honestly

I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I rather stand alone then have a lot of fake friends
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I don't blend in, I don't, I don't blend in
I rather stand alone then have a lot of fake friends
