Lightning Feet

Do ya hear him, yeah? The time has come, he needs new kicks to believe He! He's cryin' They're worn Do ya hear him? [Chorus] Tears will flow and I believe Mama, listen, please (listen, please) I need the ones with the lights that shine with ease Yeah! Can't ya see 'em? They're torn Mama, can't ya see? [Chorus] Feet will stomp and I won't deceive I'm beggin', pleadin', on my knees With each step, my spirits freeze I need the flash, the ones that soar[Chorus] Gimme lights that hit the floor Run so fast, you can't ignore Mama, oh, grant me this galore Hear the ringing of the school bell chime But my sneakers just can't keep the time C'mon, Mama, make me shine With soles that crackle, spark, and rhyme Every stride, they're just a bore I want the kind that'll make me roar Yeah, lace 'em up (lace 'em up) Let the playground roar, I'll never retreat With the lightning feet, I'll never be beat Stars on my steps (on my steps) I'll lead the games, I'm the king of the crew These flashin' shoes, they're overdue
