Why Oh Why - Spearhead[00:00:00]
I say my prayers every morning just like orange juice[00:00:23]
I crack the crinkles out my body till I'm feeling loose[00:00:26]
I strap my sneakers on my feet like they was combat boots[00:00:29]
They fit my feet like Cinderella when I'm shooting hoops[00:00:32]
Why oh why do memories keep chasing me[00:00:34]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:00:37]
Sometimes I wanna blow my brains to put my life at ease[00:00:40]
But I ain't clocking out I gotta see the seven seas[00:00:43]
Please seven's a very lucky number for me[00:00:45]
That was the age when I discovered how good balling could be[00:00:48]
Up every morning with the birdies doing little drills[00:00:51]
Go to my left go to my right developing mad skills[00:00:53]
How could a love for this game bring so much sadness[00:00:57]
I played with brothas with so much badness[00:01:00]
But now they gone I sing a song pop a three[00:01:02]
From the top of the key in they memory[00:01:05]
Why oh why do memories be chasing me[00:01:07]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:01:10]
Even in seasons when it's another color sport[00:01:12]
I still be memorizing lines out on the basketball court singing[00:01:14]
Why oh why do memories be chasing me[00:01:18]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:01:21]
Even in seasons when it's another color sport[00:01:23]
I be remembering my partners on the basketball court[00:01:25]
Do you remember runnin' the court in September[00:01:28]
Me and my homies be down for whoever[00:01:32]
Would come along and try to send us to the showers[00:01:35]
From the game that we'd been dominating' there for hours[00:01:37]
All day to be more specific east to west[00:01:40]
From Atlantic to Pacific fools would come round[00:01:43]
To get down and try to take our crown[00:01:46]
But we would hold our ground and we would never back down[00:01:48]
Old timers new timers would get in line there[00:01:50]
And take a seat there and try to prepare[00:01:54]
But oh no[00:01:56]
There was no chance when we was in the zone[00:01:57]
We was alone at the top we had hops we got props[00:01:59]
And when we needed to we busted chops[00:02:02]
Wipe the court with your game like we was using mops[00:02:04]
What ever happened to the super hoopers in the park[00:02:07]
I reminisce while shootin' solitary after dark[00:02:10]
Why oh why do memories be chasing me[00:02:12]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:02:15]
Even in seasons when it's another color sport[00:02:18]
I still be memorizing lines out on the basketball court singing[00:02:20]
Why oh why do memories be chasing me[00:02:23]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:02:26]
Even in seasons when it's another color sport[00:02:29]
I be remembering my partners on the basketball court[00:02:31]
Why oh why[00:02:35]
Why oh why[00:02:39]
Brother C came fresh from out of town[00:02:45]
And he had handles[00:02:47]
And like McDonald's he could clown ya[00:02:49]
Dribbling baby bounces between drinking forty ounces[00:02:50]
Knock ya on your heels[00:02:53]
And do circles like he was Curly Neal[00:02:54]
But oh no[00:02:56]
The liquor got quicker to his head and he said[00:02:57]
I think I musta placed some stupid bets[00:02:59]
He hit me up for some cash[00:03:02]
There was a car crash a splash[00:03:03]
And then the brother made a mad dash[00:03:05]
Rob oh Rob his whole life was like a roller coaster[00:03:07]
But on the court he looked like a Dr J poster[00:03:10]
Flying high with an Afro blowing in the wind[00:03:12]
Wiping Windex index finger rolls off the glass[00:03:15]
Then swish through the net jump a Corvette with a triple pirouette[00:03:19]
But off the court he had a few temptations copulations[00:03:23]
No moderations by 24 he had 3 pregnations[00:03:27]
Last check crack intoxications[00:03:32]
So many other brothers gone from this dimension[00:03:34]
And none of those who got hurt receive a pension[00:03:37]
Give a Bup Bup to those locked up in detention[00:03:40]
Memories too many dimension[00:03:42]
And we say one more time one more time[00:03:46]
Why oh why do memories be chasing me[00:03:50]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:03:54]
Even in seasons when it's another color sport[00:03:56]
I still be memorizing lines out on the basketball court singing[00:03:58]
Why oh why do memories be chasing me[00:04:01]
Sometimes it makes me wanna grab my sh*t and flee[00:04:05]
Even in seasons when it's another color sport[00:04:07]
I be remembering my partners on the basketball court[00:04:09]
