I used to wanna ball like my older brother
Shoot my shot
Get praised and smothered
Be the man, no other
Mo muscle, no flubber
Be like Kobe in the 4th
Fadeaway for the win
Come up clutch on the court
Click the shutter on my life back then
I was just youngin at the park tryna touch that rim
With my friends actin fools
Playin pick up after school
Tryna kill it to impress a couple girls that I knew
I was shy
Keep to myself I use to hide
Neurotic in the mind, hooping help me pass time
And then I found drive
Then I found passion
Went from the ball to the pen started rappin
Reminiscing bout before I was a teen
Just a kid tryna swish it like the players on the screens
Even though I never said it
Even though there's no means
I still remember when I had hoop dreams

Yeah I remember way back when
Before I ever hit em with the pen
Yeah I used to have
Hoop dreams
I had hoop dreams
I had dreams that I'd get that win
All dem times spent with the rock
Playing on the blacktop
Trying to be like the folks on top
Yeah I used to have hoop dreams
I had hoop dreams
I had dreams that hit my shot

You caught me saying where'd the time go?
Used to play for hours and it felt like time slowed
Now I'm traveling and switching up the time zones
Ain't no complaining cause you know I love the rhyme flow
But I've been thinking of that old hoop dream way
Back in high school, when we played for the team
Off the bench used to hit a couple 3's
And I even made a track to try and boost the self-esteem
Wishin I played more
Wishin we didn't blow it up like a claymore
I guess I paid more attention to the comfort of my shell
Maybe I was frail
But maybe now I learned and burned from it's hell
Oh well
I'm making peace with the moments that I failed
And now these raps falling like hail
Even though I said there's really no means
I still remember when I had hoop dreams

Yeah I remember way back when
Before I ever hit em with the pen
Yeah I used to have
Hoop dreams
I had hoop dreams
I had dreams that I'd get that win
All dem times spent with the rock
Playing on the blacktop
Trying to be like the folks on top
Yeah I used to have hoop dreams
I had hoop dreams
I had dreams that hit my shot

Yeah I remember way back when
Before I ever hit em with the pen
Yeah I used to have
Hoop dreams
I had hoop dreams
I had dreams that I'd get that win
All dem times spent with the rock
Playing on the blacktop
Trying to be like the folks on top
Yeah I used to have hoop dreams
I had hoop dreams
I had dreams that hit my shot
