Hoop Dreams (He Got Game)

Man i had a crazy crazy dream dogg.

I had a dream i was in the nba straight playin basketball.

Nba straight getting my ball on dogg.

Can you imagine?

Snoop dogg in the nba?

Imagine that, hoop doggy dogg.

Yea straight ballin.

You know i'm a ball anyway so why not.

Let me get my ball on.

If i could play in the nba

I would be that six-four all day shootin that trey

I dribbled to the outside and passed it to shaq

They double teamed on him so he passed it back

Look at the 3 but i don't take the shot

Cause i think i'm cold and i aint trying to get hot

I'm feelin bionic, we playing the sonics

And i'm sticking gary payton so you know i'm ball hatin

Bang on vin baker cause real lakers really don't care yea yea

Next stop in the court on damon toast stouda and my homeboy j.r. rider

Minnesota timberwolves, we cut 'em down

Hakeem olajuwon and scottie pippen, we shut 'em down

The twin towers, dave and duncan

20 in the paint fool you get's nothing

On a four game roll sweep, beep beep

We beat the bulls and we rocked the heat

And we traded for a few players, some pacers

Miller and mullin and now they lakers

We cant be beat now, we on a 27 game win streak now, bow wow

When it all started from a dream

I'm playin point guard on my favorite team (lakers)

I got the big perm, doing interviews with chick herm

At stu lance, we do a dance

When it rains poppin shampane

Basketball yes yall thats the game

Two years ago a friend of mine

Ask me to glide from the free throw line

So i took the ball, and as i made the hoop

Everybody jumped up and they said "go snoop"

And my career jumped off into the fast lane

My rookie season i made my first all star game

Double g like george gervin, thats what the call me cause i'm so ice

Ballin cause that's my life, i balls all day, and i balls all night

They call me snoop dogg and everybody know i love to hustle and ball

The season gettin tragic we lost to the magic

And the word is that rodman done had it

So i guess it on a young homie, the great number 8, mr. koby

Give him the ball dogg he ready

We got to play charlotte tonight, i'm stickin eddie

Remember all the good times that we had

Cuz dont trip to long cause tommorow we play the jazz

Then it on to play the denver nuggets

The homeboy nick they traded, but damn i still love 'em

Keep a picture of 'em on the wall next to dr. j

Meach, i love basketball

Allen iverson on the fly boy he hard to stick

C webb comin through with a quick pick

The nba saturday mornings hey or maybe on a sunday

We in the playoffs so stay off the court

This aint no game, this a sport

And we in it to win it, we ballin, no limit

Remember this

When i grow up on wanted to be a point guard playing on nbc

With herb and suge or pistol pete or world b. free givin dap to me

Givin up my dues with converse shoes

And tellin all the kids to stay in school

This is true and your dreams can come true

If it happen to me, it can happen to you

That's for all the nba players that dream of being a rapper.

I'm a rapper that dreams of being a nba player and i'm a baller.

Let's bounce up out of here man.
