Jump Shot Lyrics by Akajou

Akajou Is Real (Deluxe Edition)

2022

Born addicted to crack, I'm a child that's Black
I'm steady feelin the flack, Way I'm livin is whack
But my mind in tact, I'm just statin the facts
I gotta watch my back, so I don't get ransacked
I share my life on wax, I share my life don't tax
Yeah.... life's an act, so I light these packs
And I write these tracks, my pen got my back
I'm feelin so compact, Feelin the world attack
Check my icon rap, this my life contract
Feel my eye contact, Feel like I'm on track
Got my wounds all wrapped, Pray I don't get clapped
I roll the dice - play craps, share my life no cap
In the house like traps, I got the drip no tap
When they play my craft, They say AK snaps
That's cos AK raps, Yeah my flow run laps
I'm tryna bridge the gaps, While I еat these scraps

I'm tryna make it but thеy wanna take it
I got the ball I'm shootin hoops, and I always make it
I got the world in my hands and I'm tryna shake it
Everyday I build it up while they try to break it
Yeah
I'm tryna make it but they wanna take it
I got the ball I'm shootin hoops, and I always make it
I got the world in my hands and I'm tryna shake it
Everyday I build it up while they try to break it

I'm in the field
I'm never sittin on the benches
I'm in the trenches
I'm livin with the consequences
Been in the fences
Now I'm livin life extensive
I'm hella pensive, I got the enemies defensive
No apprehension, I carry shit that I don't mention
I feel the tension, I rise above any contention
Spirit retention, I'm livin in my own dimension
Too much pretention, So I put them on suspension
Got they attention, they all attendin my convention
This my invention, I do it with the best intentions
An ascension, I use it as a death prevention
A life extension, I'm writin rhymes to get a pension
Usin my vision, creatin shit with with precision
This an extension
This the root of my decision
I made revisions, cuttin shit like an incision
I got provisions, I gotta dodge any collision

I'm tryna make it but they wanna take it
I got the ball I'm shootin hoops, and I always make it
I got the world in my hands and I'm tryna shake it
Everyday I build it up while they try to break it
Yeah
I'm tryna make it but they wanna take it
I got the ball I'm shootin hoops, and I always make it
I got the world in my hands and I'm tryna shake it
Everyday I build it up while they try to break it

I'm just a child of the ghetto
Got ancient blood like a Pharaoh
I'm pullin strings like Gepetto, yeah
I'm still that fancy fly fellow, huh
I know the value of this life, yeah
Seen it all so you know I got that insight
I know I'm wrong if I ain't right, yeah
But if I'm wrong, I got a chance to get it right, yeah

I'm tryna make it but they wanna take it
I got the ball I'm shootin hoops, and I always make it
I got the world in my hands and I'm tryna shake it
Everyday I build it up while they try to break it
Yeah

I'm tryna make it but they wanna take it
I got the ball I'm shootin hoops, and I always make it
I got the world in my hands and I'm tryna shake it
Everyday I build it up while they try to break it
