gabe vs - sneakerhead anthem lyrics

[verse 1]
my eyes were on tha floor
scoping what og wore
straight fire n more
sneakers hardcore
no price i wouldn’t pay for
ta be like him of course
doin chores
seller market price wars
money out tha drawer
headed ta tha store
soon invincible, hear this lion roar
tryin tha first pair on
pinch front, said moms
cash all gone
growin comic+cons
never grew into ’em
not vibin
don’t fit in ’em
here we go again

sneakers on demand, values instilled
dead stock gets you k!lled
leather gets blood spilled
pay with your life, gets you wilt
at my lowest point
what’s tha point
if i disappoint
just a data point
had ta switch up, for me was shoes
for you was that piercing, gin n juice
hair dye or them tattoos
i ran my shoes into tha ground
i was lost, i was found
i almost drowned
now i’m on tha rebound
from worn+out shoe soles
sneakers with holes
j’s dangling in ghettos
voices from tha past echo
on my own, free n clear
seein crystal clear
foot ta tha pedal, changin gears
i’m fed up with these shoes
they are lose+lose
here’s tha news
it’s time for me ta choose
[chorus]
from tha bottom ta tha top
cruisin in my drop top
feel tha rain drop
hollywood backdrop
surrounded by clones
holy grails, unknowns
searching catacombs
ta match these headphones

[chorus]
from tha bottom ta tha top
cruisin in my drop top
feel tha rain drop
hollywood backdrop
surrounded by clones
holy grails, unknowns
searching catacombs
ta match these headphones

[verse 2]
it’s that sneakerhead anthem
it’s kinda random
he’s platinum
bogey ridin tandem
in tha sneaker factory
practicing anarchy
just an adversary
in tha gallery
maker elusive n reclusive
here’s ur shoes gabe they are exclusives
made with love definitely not abusive
but i never experienced love not abusive
you know these shoes are status symbols
reppin who you are, signals
untying these white laces
head down, can i face this
searching for right phrases
time for change, embrace this
frozen in time
different shoes, tha same time
one’s my mentor’s, one’s mine
i’m in tha mirror sobbin
around me they’re whisperin n mockin
[chorus]
from tha bottom ta tha top
cruisin in my drop top
feel tha rain drop
hollywood backdrop
surrounded by clones
holy grails, unknowns
searching catacombs
ta match these headphones

[verse 3]
it may come off as shockin
if you’re watchin
me weepin while shoppin
more than style spottin
used ta be all in
now plannin n plottin
new paths be adoptin
i’m not stoppin
was led by self+righteous
afflicted with blindness
my body’s almost lifeless
identity crisis
can’t be mindless
past tha bias
my worth is priceless
my truth is timeless
all aboard, one accord
what you want, you can’t afford
dream+chasin glimpse
sneaker pimps n simps
[chorus]
from tha bottom ta tha top
cruisin in my drop top
feel tha rain drop
hollywood backdrop
surrounded by clones
holy grails, unknowns
searching catacombs
ta match these headphones

[chorus]
from tha bottom ta tha top
cruisin in my drop top
feel tha rain drop
hollywood backdrop
surrounded by clones
holy grails, unknowns
searching catacombs
ta match these headphones

[verse 4]
took me under his wing
at arm’s distance, unwilling
i couldn’t quite fit tha billing
i’m really truth spillin
can’t prolong
findin where i belong
knew right from wrong
but only so strong
i received my sight
late one night
my future’s open n bright
for a rewrite
used ta sit in bleachers
now choosin sneakers
with different features
disowned like peters
voices grow even louder
“gabe, make us prouder”
with tha superpower
just like tha founder
here’s tha ’05 newscast
good+bad mixed, nuanced
i was bypassed n typecast
now i’m iconoclast

[verse 5]
not tryin ta kick dirt on his grave
or minimize tha impact he made
on my life n tha role he played
but tha relationship frayed
no matter how much i prayed
for too long i stayed
former headquarters of texaco
right next ta tacos mexico
billy crystal, seven hundred sundays
nightmares, nine hundred days
united artists theater bas+m+nt
couldn’t be tha replacement
permanent estrangement
headed ta where i’m meant
let it be known
shoes’ll get you disowned
historically stoned
prince dethroned
coronation postponed
frienemy zone
tor+mentor tone
helped tha most
hurt tha most
condone
opportunity blown
