My mama wanted me to be a baller but I balled a different way
I look at my Rollie, say it's time to get this cake
I throw all this money but it never fade away
Uh, hoop dreams
I used to shoot the rock until my nigga sold the rock (the rock)
They try to block my shot, I'm taking Rollies out the box (the box)
I used to go to practice just to work on my defense (defense)
Red and white jersey, red and white mean hit the fence (hey-ya)

Sometimes I still feel like a hooper, how I ball on niggas
Talking summertime to winter and to fall on niggas
I remember back when I couldn't even call on niggas

I've been in and out my mind but now I'm back up on my shit
Try to get some niggas past us but they back up on my list
