Yo, it’s 16BT! 🎤

Straight from the block, let me tell you about my day.

Life ain’t easy, but we keep it movin’.

Let’s go!

Morning hit, same old block,

Neighbor hustling, cars don’t stop.

Three roll up, cash gets dropped,

Ain’t my biz, I’m just locked on the clock.

Bag on my back, I’m off to school,

Court tonight — you know the rules.

Crowd’s so loud, I’m feelin’ alive,

Step back three — game’s mine, we thrive!

My beat hits like a basketball,

Life throws bricks, but I still stand tall.

My ball, my song, they keep me whole,

I ride the beat, even when life’s cold.

(“Yeah, you feel that? That’s life. We hit hard, but we don’t stop. Let’s go!”)

On the court, it’s tough, no room to fold,

They play rough, but I don’t do fouls — just goals.

Elbows fly, sweat drips, it’s raw,

But I stay clean — I play for more.

My squad’s behind me, I make my play,

Through the pressure, I find my way.

Basketball ain’t just a game to me,

It’s my fight, my freedom, my legacy.

My beat hits like a basketball,

Life throws bricks, but I still stand tall.

My ball, my song, they keep me whole,

I ride the beat, even when life’s cold.

Back home late, man, it’s rough,

Mom’s new guy — I’ve seen enough.

Grab my ball, hit the street to breathe,

But the ball pops, man, can’t believe.

I sit on the court, thoughts run deep,

Neighbor comes out, tosses me a treat:

(“Yo, take this ball,” )he says, real cool,

I nod back, (“Thanks, bro, you rule.”)

My beat hits like a basketball,

Life throws bricks, but I still stand tall.

My ball, my song, they keep me whole,

I ride the beat, even when life’s cold.

Mom’s my hero, she’s been through hell,

Raised me up when the world just fell.

She works so hard, her strength’s my guide,

Through her love, I find my pride.

She’s my rock, no matter the storm,

Her hugs at night keep my heart warm.

Everything I do, I do for her,

Her fight, her love — my true mentor.

(“Yeah, yeah, yeah! Pick it up, keep goin’!”)

Homies pull up, we run the game,

Under the streetlights, nothing’s the same.

Late-night vibes, forget the stress,

This is my world, man, I feel blessed.

Mom’s dude’s gone, I’m back inside,

Sit at my desk, where I confide.

Hit the beat, words start to flow,

This track’s my life — now you know.

Yo, it’s 16BT, straight from the block,

Ball and beat — that’s all I got.

This song’s my story, this beat’s my soul,

Thanks for listenin’ — now you know.
