Lyrics

(Mustard on the beat)
Here's where it all started
I gotta lace you up right before we start walkin'
I wanna talk about the sneaks in the orange boxes
If you know, you know
But if you don't, listen close when I start talkin'
Before LeBron James had four rings
They wore three stripes (And they looked so clean)
Then I heard Drake say, "Checks over stripes"
(And when they thought about it, they said, "That's fly")
They like Air Force, they like Air Max
They like low tops, they be wearin' that
They like Prestos, they like Retros
They like— (I don't know)
My sneaks can do anything
Take you anywhere that you wanna be
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
Okay, I get it, pay attention
There's a couple things that my friend didn't mention
There's a couple things that I seen that he didn't
And one mixtape days, that was different
Filas, Reeboks, Converse, high-tops
Shoelace, velcro, slip-on, why not?
So many ways to choose to make a statement
So many stop to stare as hard as you make it
Kobes or LeBrons
It's a slam dunk, put 'em on
Like a track star in these Nikes, runnin' miles
Twenty-three like Jordans, every pair, every style
My sneaks can do anything
It's like magic right in front of me
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
Yeah, back in '85 when Jay chose to fly
The league chose to fine for sneakers that were designed
But that opened the door for players to make more
For rappers to have sneaks that they used to couldn't afford
Could tell a lot about somebody from the sneaks they wear
Could tell you where they came from and what brought them here
The wires that we hang from help us face our fears
The laces that we tie with keep us safe, I swear
A lot of people don't know about these old soles
And these different color boxes that we call home
When you slip, let these sneaks be your backbone
And when you lost, let these sneaks bring you back home
My sneaks can do anything
Take you anywhere that you wanna be
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
My sneaks can do anything
It's like magic right in front of me
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
Imagine the scuffs and the scratches
The wear and the tear over time as it passes
So many pairs, all the styles, all the fabrics
The ones that you wear and remember the magic that happened
The first time you laced up
The ones you couldn't afford or had to save up
Couldn't believe they was yours, but you got 'em
Meant so much, it'd be a shame if you lost 'em
Uh, we probably shouldn't even think of that
But I know we'd do anything just to bring 'em back
Because
My sneaks can do anything
Take you anywhere that you wanna be
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
My sneaks can do anything
It's like magic right in front of me
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
Yeah, back to the topic for everybody that's watchin'
Let me make it clear so nothin' here is forgotten
For some people, it seems it only happens in dreams
Put on a pair of these and you can do anything
'Cause sneakers have a life of they own that never ends
As soon as you think they do, another story begins
Like our friend who bought a ticket hopin' to win
The most beautiful sneaks ever so that he could play in
They happened to call his number, he was happy and then
Started sayin' everything that we've been sayin' again
Like
My sneaks can do anything
Take you anywhere that you wanna be
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
My sneaks can do anything
It's like magic right in front of me
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
My sneaks can do anything
Take you anywhere that you wanna be
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
My sneaks can do anything
It's like magic right in front of me
My sneaks can do anything
When I say anything, I mean anything
