[Hook: JGivens]
Closed eyes, holdin' a nine
Stolen but I'm, frozen in time
Time drips from the monsoon sky
(Jumpman, jumpman, jumpman, jump)
[Hook: Asaiah Ziv]
Closed eyes, holdin' a nine
Stolen but I'm, frozen in time
Time drips from the monsoon sky
(Jumpman, jumpman, jumpman, jump)
[John Givez]
What are we doin', doin', doin'
[Verse 1: Asaiah Ziv]
Yo, what a morning, a good morning
Sister gave me a kiss and told me, "Son you charmin'"
Cause I ain't have a mom
According to this, got me warmer
My pops told me "I'll give you anything that you wanted"
I never had a job, so don't misunderstand
See, dad bought me these things I never ever had
That had no value or cost
At school I would floss
I bought some Roses and her favorite 4's
At highest ends, I had highest trends
Went to the mall to buy the latest 10's
That just released
Knowing that the kicks would crease
Or get a scuff in a week
It ain't nothing to me
This here ain't stunting to me
Leaving the boutique I peep the dude I haven't seen in weeks from far away
Yo, like "Why you lookin' at me crazy?"
Inner fear but my imagination never seen him graduatin'
Gradually approached me and then I stop
[Verse 2: JGivens]
Young and I'm reckless
Everyone got a necklace
My walk is like Rosa Parks when under arrest
Tired, my feet
For not a second have seen
Luxury
That patent leather Chicago silhouette wasn't me (among other things)
To get at your 'spective, I'm colder than Ben & Jerry's
This chrome that I carry jacked it from a cadaver
The back of a mobile home, broke the latch
Of the vehicle cemetery foot action do not compare me to they
A year or two ago today, 8th grade
I drew a cage, named it school and then flew away
Like an
Ostrich in moccasins, Coptic and then I blaze
They got
Expensive tastes and I think that my taste is laced
The cloudy climate consumes me and now the sky that's usually
Ultraviolet is gloomy a cool gray
Who is this fool, ay
Dude is afraid
Cause I'm eyeing at his ___ J's
[Hook: JGivens & (Asaiah Ziv)]
Closed eyes, holdin' a nine
Stolen but I'm, frozen in time
Time drips from the monsoon sky (whatcha gonna do)
(Jumpman, jumpman, jumpman, jump)
[Hook: JGivens, (Asaiah Ziv) & {John Givez}]
Closed eyes, holdin' a nine
Stolen but I'm, frozen in time
Time drips from the monsoon sky
(Jumpman, jumpman {what are we doin', doin', doin'}
Jumpman, jump)
[Verse 3: Asaiah Ziv & JGivens]
In position, my fists in my pockets
I felt my stomach drop and if I could just read his
Thoughts in my mind about what's inside his pockets
I drop my box and look away feel like he held me
Hostages testify when alive, they gotta
Die, if I do, Momma I'll see you soon it's been a couple years
I'm thinking 'bout your face now I ain't even
Scared as I hallucinate
Imagine if I graduated
That got me aggravated, this pistol is calibrated
Did I just hear a siren?
When he gon' start firin'?
His look is violent but it seems his thoughts are underminin'
Did he think this gunner was lyin' bout my a**ignment
Or my alignment, cool
See what this bullet do
Then pull it fool
Cause I got nothin' to lose
Take a walk in my shoes
(Shoot him, shoot him!
Oh, what are you going to do, call the police
Go, c'mon)
[Bridge: John Givez] (x3)
I feel money can't pay for
I can't jump so high
What are we doin', doin', doin'
[Asaiah Ziv]
Jump
Jumpman, jump
[Bridge: John Givez]
I feel money can't pay for
I can't jump so high
[Asaiah Ziv]
Jump
Jumpman, jump
[Outro: Asaiah Ziv]
I just wanna say, uh, rest in peace to those who didn't make it past 21 and I just hope that our generation will put the guns down and re-evaluate life and see what it means to live, yeah
