Kunci: G minor•
Verse 1
Gm
Eb
I was seven years old, when I got my first pair
And I stepped outside
Bb
And I was like, momma,
this air bubble right here,
Gm
I hit back- court, and when I jumped,
Eb
I jumped, I swear I got so high
Bb
I touched the net, Mom I touched the net,
D
this is the best day of my life
Gm
Air Max's were next, that air bubble, that mesh
Eb
The box, the smell, the stuffin', the tread,
Cm
in school I was so cool,
I knew that I couldn't crease 'em
Bb
My friends couldn't afford 'em,
D
Four stripes, on their Adidas
Gm
On the court I wasn't the best,
but my kicks were like the pros
Eb
Yo, stick out my tongue
so everyone could see that logo
Cm
Nike Air Flight belt bag was so dope
D
And then my friend Carlos' brother
D
got murdered for his Fours, whoa
Pre-chorus 1
Gm
See he just wanted a jump shot,
but they wanted his Starter coat though
Eb
Didn't wanna get caught,
from Genesee Park to Othello
Gm
You'd get clowned for those Pro Wings
with the Velcro, those were not tight
D
I was trying to fly without leaving the ground,
Gm
'cause I wanted to be like Mike, right
Eb
Wanted to be him, I wanted to be that guy,
Bb
I wanted to touch the rim
D
I wanted to be cool, and I wanted to fit in
Chorus 1
Wanted what he had, America, it
Eb
Cm
Can you take me far away
Gimme a star to reach for
Bb
D
Tell me what it takes
I'll go so high
Eb
My feet won't touch the ground
And pull the strings
Verse 2
Gm
(down) We want what we can't have,
Eb
commodity makes us want it
So expensive, damn, I just got to flaunt it
Bb
Got to show 'em, so exclusive,
this that new shit
D
A hundred dollars for a pair of shoes
Eb
Look at me, look at me, I'm a cool kid
I'm an individual, yea,
Cm
but I'm part of a movement
My movement told me be a consumer
and I consumed it
They told me to just do it,
Pre-chorus 2
I listened to what that swoosh said
Gm
Look at what that swoosh did,
Eb
see it consumed my thoughts
Are you stupid, don't crease 'em,
just leave 'em in that box
Gm
Strangled by these laces,
laces I can barely talk
D
That's my air bubble and I'm lost, if it pops
Gm
We are what we wear, we wear what we are
Eb
But see I look inside the mirror
and think Phil Knight tricked us all
Bb
Will I stand for change, or stay in my box
D
These Nikes help me define me,

I bought these dreams

That all fall

(down)
Verse 3
Gm
It started out, with what I wear to school
like these are what make you cool
Bb
And this pair, this would be my parachute
D
So much more than just a pair of shoes
Gm
Nah, this is what I am, what I wore,
this is the source of my youth
Eb
This dream that they sold to you
Cm
For a hundred dollars and some change,
consumption is in the veins
Bb
D
And now I see it's just another pair of shoes
