about

JToth arranged four different beats by Chop Louie for this song. The bass lines and keys were unbelievably perfect in their blending, so they went for it and landed it

lyrics

Kickflips, man, what a concept
Ollie, a lil' flick, and land on it
A board is difficult enough, just to stand on it
I'm gonna have to tough it out, I plan on it

'88, slated as double infinity
I made skating my thing, cause it doesn't limit me
Forged with fire, and soaring dragon energy
Born a wood tiger, this cat's got tremendous chi

Fourteen, and loving every minute of it
More dreams coming true, like sticking manny shuvits
Danny Way's my age, and up and coming
Going pro for H-Street, jealous, but still love him

Any day child, I'll figure out how, to
Land this trick, like the Mack came the town
Running these streets, and ready to take a bow
Come on feet, step it up, let's make it now

Fuck you! By now I shoulda stuck you
Is my grip tape done, or is it these dumb shoes?
All I got is clues, like a gumshoe
This shit is unlearnable like kung-fu

Fuck me! Until I get lucky, I'm a
Poser, and all these motherfuckers are above me
Seems like it's just me, out of everybody
Come on board! You're supposed to be my buddy

Fuck off! Is it me, or am I a dummkopf?
Is this how Jordan feels, losing a dunk off
Every time? My brain's fried like tater tots
Every line I try gets stymied by this skater block

Fucking hell! This is not going fucking well
My stock is plummeting, don't make me fucking sell
Seven months of talk, nothing to fucking tell
Like I'm dyslexic, still trying to fucking spell

Holy shit! I nearly landed it
Don't get too excited yet, keep practicing
Damn that was close, stay focused, keep tracking it
It'll be the key to my city, once I'm handed it

Golly gee! Another rad attempt
Ollie, ollie income free, like I'm tax exempt
This'll be the best me I've ever been
Try number hundred and three, and I'm spent

Wake up again, hit the pavement
Take a big breath, visualize making it
Not quite, but close, just take it in
No more monkey business, no more aping it

Unlock the code, bit by bit
Wearing out my clothes, fit by fit
Patiently awaiting to get my gift
Then...
Landed! Oh my God, I landed it
Like an alien from a half pipe planet
What a year, I could barely stand it
Haven't hit puberty yet, but I manned it

Whew! I took my board and slammed it
Over one thousand flips before I finally snagged it
So many sad trips and over blown gaskets, I
Laid it and hatched this trick, like an egg in a basket

No wonder, all these up and comers had quit
Almost two summers I spent, mad as shit
To think some states banned this, as if!
One blink, and I'm a skater for life, that's it

That's the shit
