"And I'm a Nike head.." -> Nas

Lexicon! Lace up your sneakers

"And I'm a Nike head.." -> Nas

Nick Fury, lace up your sneakers

"And I'm a Nike head.." -> Nas

Lace up your sneakers

Comin out your speakers

Everybody's got an addiction, mine is shoes

It started with my very first pair of Kangaroos

And to L it see, made for tennis I play none of it

but I owned 'em in brown and black suede

But that was hardly the beginnin of my obscene spendin (nah)

Savin up pennies, parental begging (what)

Even now if I only got forty bills

I'ma buy a sack of weed and go straight to Marshall's

Cause one time at Ross I found Nike Zoom Airs

Fourteen bucks (what) I bought two pair

I always do dat dere so there's no need to despair

if my kicks get ugly from some wear and tear

I know it's sick, my addiction, I'm addicted, I admit it

Like an alkie to his liquid, I ain't tryin to kick it

I predicted I'm headed only downhill from here

Cause my foot hasn't grown in the past five years

I got old shoes, new shoes, on my closet floor

In my trunk, holdin open my doors (where)

Overdue shoes, borrowed from my brother yup

Alternates, duplicates, hard to find colors (check it)

I got four pairs of Air Force Ones high and low

All in all white, one with a gum sole

Buyin Air Max Runners since they first came

Before wearin neon colors was a G thang

Remember the first ones in pink, makin eyes blink

All my clothes drab except the kicks that I drag

And my top five fades all got, orange on 'em

From old Air (?) to the new Airmada

Lava Domes (check) Internationalist (check)

And a bag of ankle socks, do you accept checks?

(No not for you Mr. Fury not at Sporty L.A.

Your account's made of rubber find another way to pay)

That's when I go on the internet

to the Japanese sites, where I can't read a word of it

But the pictures taunt, tell me to max out my Mastercard

Deal with it later these shoes are hard

Said the same thing for my Wallabees, Timberlands (shit)

I even got Cortez to match my Pendletons

I got a problem, and I need salvation

So at this time I'm accepting donations

Cash is fine, or anything in size nine

But please don't send no Jordans

Send 'em to someone else - I'm not the only, one on this Earth

who will buy food second but a pair of shoes first

Oak's a Nikehead (yo) and my man Double-O

Whose got more Air Force Ones than anyone I know

I mean I even got my girl into obscure kicks

If it ain't in my size then a boy size six

So if you wonder why I'm broke (why) or my bank account's dead

A - I'm underground, B - I'm a Nikehead

So when your girl gets bent cause you spent the rent

"And I'm a Nike head.. and I'm a Nike head"

And your dad gets mad cause it's just a fad

"And I'm a Nike head.. and I'm a Nike head"

And your folks complain, say they all look the same

"And I'm a Nike head.. and I'm a Nike head"

Well lace up your sneakers, I'm comin out your speakers

"And I'm a Nike head.. and I'm a Nike head"
