Lyrics Old Shit - J-Live

Old Shit

Yo.
Chances are ya see me I’ll be rockin' some jeans
I’m a simple man with simple needs of modest means
Which means by no means are my jeans some kind of status symbol
That’s a different kind of simple
See, I wear my wares with cares
I’m brand-loyal (True)
And cheap brands don’t last more than a year or two
But one thing I don’t do
Is cop that brand new
Just for the sake of bein' brand new
Still use an iPhone 5, ya mean
And that’s only cuz my 4 was in the washin' machine
And I’m same old jeans
Call me a creature of habit
And the habit isn’t spendin' frivolously, dang nabbit
My own little motto when it comes to the store
I might go broke but I won’t go poor
Quotin' Kanye like when’ll I get my money back
Well, there’s no debatin', I’m still waitin'
Still keepin' my old shit
Takin' care of my old shit
Stay fresh in my old shit
That’s lookin' like old shit
Old shit, old shit
Old shit, old shit
Yo
Chances are you see me I’ll be rockin' some lo
Probably I got it from the outlet though
I’ll purchase with some vinyl at the thrift store
Way before I heard the song from Macklemore
But I was singing along like totally bro
I don' see nothin' wrong like I told you before
Ain’t no bump in my grind and my grind gettin' bumped
And I might treat myself to a little sump sump
But sock away your lump for a rainy day
I * ** to take the pain away
I still stay fresh as my own stage show
I don’t rock the same in the next video
If something gets stained then away we go
I’m still not tryin' keep up with the Jones' though
You can go ahead and you can call me cheap
But it ain’t how much you make it’s how much you keep
Still keepin' my old shit
Takin' care of my old shit
Stay fresh in my old shit
That’s lookin' like old shit
Old shit, old shit
Old shit, old shit
See for me shoppin' is more about replacement than anything, you know what I’m
sayin'?
She’s talking about I got mad sneakers like I’m at the mall every week
or something I’m like nah I just take care of what I got.
Look chances are you see me I’ll be rockin' some Nikes
Usually I splurge and pick up somethin' I like
I ain’t ashamed to tell you and I have no fear
The same two or three pair been in rotation for years
Kids be like Dad, nice sneaks, are those new?
And I’d be like no, and they’d be like true
Same conversation with the jacket and hat
That’s the way it is, and it’s like that
See every now and then I step out and I cop but when the funds run low I just
stop
Drop
Shut 'em down open up shop
Switch from consumer to producer
Without even a glitch like skip the matrix
And I’ll pay you late tricks and the overdraft fritz and the credit card fix
You can go ahead and you can call me cheap
But it’s not how much you make
It’s how much you keep
Still keepin' my old shit
Takin' care of my old shit
Stay fresh in my old shit
That’s lookin' like old shit
Old shit
Old shit
Old shit
Old shit
Kids like you where’d you get those.
I’m like down the street at the Foot
Locker.
They say nah nah they don’t have them colors at the Foot Locker.
I say yeah cuz I got these back in '95.
