Lyrics
FUTURE SHOES
V1 F
Hey little lady,
Believe what you hear....
Every word from the mouth of the prophet
You see in the mirror.
V1 M
Hey little brother!
How high can you aim.....
Will you answer the call
When destiny whispers your name
B SECTION
M The world done woke!
F Ceilings shatter.
M The heavens have spoke
F And baby, your life matters.
CHORUS
So come on!
Step into your future shoes!
They suit ya like the future
'Cause, child, the future is yours.
Tip your hat to the ones
Who paid your dues
You gon' do em proud
In your future shoes
So come on...
Step into your future shoes!
V2 M
Risin' up from Chicago
We all know this cat.
In 0-8, he took the 1600
And never looked back.
V2 F
And straight outta Oakland,
With truth as her wings,
Like the future come a-callin', came a woman
Could do anything.
B SECTION-Together
They took the wheel
They shifted gears
Finally seemed real
After four hundred years.
So come on!
Step into your future shoes!
They suit ya like the future
'Cause child, the future is yours.
Tip your hat to the ones
Who paid your dues
You gon' do em proud
In your future shoes
So come on...
Step into your future shoes!
BREAKDOWN
M Might be neon in the heel,
F Or golden threaded seams.
M But trust that soul to take control
F And lift you to your dreams
So come on!
Step into your future shoes!
They suit ya like the future
'Cause, child, the future is yours.
Tip your hat to the ones
Who paid your dues
You gon' do em proud
In your future shoes
So come on...
Step into your future shoes!
Step into your future shoes!
