The White Shoes - Wale
I had a lady once stop me on the street
I was wearing white shoes And she says
"I'm glad you're sticking with the white shoes"
She says "It makes me feel good"
Take this good advice
If they're gonna judge you for life
Say we can't always be fly
We gon' be good long as them sneakers white
You'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Gucci S Dots whole hood had 'em
Ice cream 'fore the hypebeasts that's into fashion
Being forreal yo try being Pharrell
When your black ass in a back class the fronting was real
No Lauren London we was on a budget
You know sharin' Old Navy
so the army could be fresh in public
Where the sneaker stores and laundromats get all the money
Cause it ain't 'bout what you're doin' 'bout how you're lookin'
When they love you for your status and your catalog
And everybody got a jersey to play along
Back then the hoes checkin' for your zapatos
So even dirty niggas had the foams
Take this good advice
If they're gonna judge you for life
Say we can't always be fly
We gon' be good long as them sneakers white
You'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Biotech trainers on the way to work
And we would quietly complain while Eric would lurk
That was the PG Plaza manager managin' us
Yeah I'm standin' in Lucky 7s but slingin' them Lugz
Still have them Js for the low low and I could get 'em early
But I'm not without a conscience
I see people out there hurtin'
Got 'em for Penny Foams that was bought at this very store
And I think that was my shift then again I'm not very sure
And that's a lot that can get to ya
When you're not sellin' drugs but the outcome is similar
Cause out come them niggas
with pistols tellin' you give 'em up
Now out come the moms with tissues
cause you ain't give a fuck
Free lunch for everyone income was very uh
On the second and 16th everyone would have every 1
And Reebok would carry pump and that's not the scary part
These niggas love white shoes so much
they'd be buried in them
I was wearing white shoes And she says
"I'm glad you're sticking with the white shoes"
She says "It makes me feel good"
You'll be alright
You'll be alright
You'll be alright
You'll be alright
Take this good advice
If they're gonna judge you for life
Say we can't always be fly
We gon' be good long as them sneakers white
You'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
Said you'll be alright
No matter how good or lavish us niggas got it
We just a bunch of ravenous addicts
living for fancy haberdashery
