Sneaker Kids
This is for the mama saving up for sneakers
Like my mama did even if it killed her
(Oh-oh, Woah-oh)
(Oh-oh, Woah-oh)
Even when BG killed the power
We would sing and dance in the dark for hours
(Oh-oh, Woah-oh)
(Oh-oh, Woah-oh)
When I'm down on my luck
Spent my last 20 bucks
She paints the picture
She paints the picture
When there's no giving up
Have to scrape off the brush
She paints the picture (oh-oh)
Race the mind
I'll piece the jewels
And tell the truth 'cause sneaker kids don't quit
Sneaker kids don't quit (oh-oh)
Race the stand on solid ground
And when you're down you gotta go for them
Cause sneaker kids don't quit
(Oh-oh, Woah-oh)
Sneaker kids don't quit
(Woah-oh)
(Woah-oh)
Sneaker kids don't quit
(Woah-oh)
This is for the girl standing at the school gate
Wishing that she had your life for one day
(Oh-oh, woah-oh)
(Oh-oh, woah-oh)
She doesn't have a dress to be your prom date
Look in her eyes you can hear her heartbreak
(Oh-oh, woah-oh)
(Oh-oh, woah-oh)
When I'm down on my luck
Spent my last 20 bucks
She paints the picture
She paints the picture
When there's no giving up
Have to scrape off the brush
She paints the picture (oh-oh)
Race the mind
I'll piece the jewels
And tell the truth 'cause sneaker kids don't quit
Sneaker kids don't quit (oh-oh)
Race the stand on solid ground
And when you're down you gotta go for them
Cause sneaker kids don't quit
(Oh-oh, woah-oh)
Sneaker kids don't quit
(Woah-oh)
(Woah-oh)
Sneaker kids don't quit
(Woah-oh)
