letra de road race asics - pat reed

most times you can tell just from the tone of the shoot around, like
d-mn, i ain’t never getting the ball
they’re treating a casual open court like it’s a closed invite tryout for the shooting shanghai basketball sharks
or like there’s scouts in the stands
and this sat-rday morning run with amateurs might be your last chance
to show your haters that you can be a sixth man
in pakistan, or kazakhstan, afghanistan
but certainly not in the nba or the united states
man, check the ball up

you’re still wearing those beat down, team issued hyperdunks from 2018
thе last time you played in a real gamе, and it was a pro am
i looked it up, 2 for 13
the way you shot that weekend actually k!lled your dream
and now every sat-rday morning without fail, after a long work week
you try to exorcise your demons playing on the pick up scene
calling out 13 year olds for one on ones on your youtube stream
mad cuz you work on a b2b marketing team
like we supposed to pay the price cuz you didn’t make the cut
like we supposed to set the screens while you get to lay it up
like we didn’t all take the same subway to get out here to the courts
i don’t give a d-mn if you think you’re better cuz you’re wearing chicago bulls shorts
why are you running plays like you was in the eastern conference finals
and got no more timeouts, but need a 3?
and kyrie’s out with a knee
you know you’re not really on tnt?
you’re playing dudes who buy now & pay later on their flat screen tvs

and if you beat him to the cup, he’s going to make the smart foul
there ain’t no free throws in pickup, so you got to take it from the top
man, after a while that sh-t gets wild annoying
why you practicing your fundamentals at a pickup game on sat-rday morning?
that sh-t gets boring to me, i could’ve been sleeping in, snoring
instead i’m playing against a fool who thinks he’s better than mike jordan
and if old boy ain’t enough to turn you off, bruh
there’s another dude out here giving it everything he got to ruin your day

you got to watch out for the white dude wearing a whoop to the court
cuz he definitely didn’t just show up there to play, he’s trying to get his cardio in
and quite frankly, he don’t care who he offends
but you better be worried if it’s you that he chooses to defend
he’s going to be face guarding you the whole game, with a full court press
trap corners, trying his very best to make you stressed
white on rice, chest to chest, just like a vest
you get no rest
force you to turn it over just to catch your breath
he’s wearing asics dirty from road races
tied as tight as humanly possible around his ankles
and double knee leg braces cuz he wrestled in college
he don’t got no cartilage but still running marathon mileage
so he’s in shape, yeah way more than you
and he wants to win this pickup game way more than you
and he’s willing to do anything that he’s got to do
he’ll make a stop and slap the floor like the blue devils do, whole family went to duke
i think the last time i touched the ball, i hit a dive, full extension going out of bounds
sh-t had me feeling like shaq flying through the stands
but then i got too greedy trying to double up my hand
i tried to sneak back in to steal a corner three, blocked
and they said it’s off you, might as well just get back on d, and now i’m salty
and ever since then, i made a pledge
to never, ever hoop on sat-rday again
when washed up prospects and hustle guys play
unless my friends really beg to get me out of bed
i’m probably posted at the crib having a self care day
a dim sum and chocolate cake cuz i got healthcare day
