“James Harden” is a street anthem about being underrated, but finally forcing your way to stardom. Da Kid Gowie chose to get creative with this particular track. It’s practically two songs in one. Although he’s speaking entirely from the perspective of James Harden, listeners can hear it two ways, t...
[Intro x4]
Now I'm James Harden
[Verse]
These haters always talkin' everywhere I go
They probably hatin' cause I'm drippin' in Olympic gold
They tell me when the pressure's on I always seem to fold
So every night I go out and put on a show
These niggas claim they ballin' but that's chump change
I came up from the bench and now a nigga running things
I'm so intelligent, I could probably coach the game
But I'm with my squad, grinding trynna win some rings
Put on for my team, with the city on my back
I'm with a couple shooters, I don't need to keep a strap
Attract the double team so you lose track to where they at
Bang! 3 to the head before you can react
And that's real
My million dollar skill gon' make me a couple mill to get a house up on the hill
With a couple bad women who's itching to be my misses
But I'm young, so I'mma drag it longer than LeBron's decision
Nigga, I'm on a mission
These critics don't hurt me
Stopping me is bad luck, Friday the 13th
Bow down to a king, you are not worthy
I'm a killer on the court, nigga, first degree
[Hook]
These critics talking hoping I fall off my grind
Little do they know, I'm grinding til' the game is mine
My old team really didn't want to see me shine
So I handle business 24/365
They knew my talent, but ain't wanna see me starting
I used to ride the bench, now I'm James Harden
Now they see me and they mad cause I'm ballin'
They were fuel to the fire, nigga this is arson!
[Verse 2]
You see, I never had a problem assisting my niggas
Everyone has a role and none of my niggas are quitters
I show love to all of my people, including beginners
And it's middle finger to anyone who is against us
And trigger fingers for them niggas trynna take mines
They spreading rumors that they heard through the grape vine
I'm so dope like a nigga selling base-lines
Type of shit that Commish wanna give me a fine!
And I ain't lying, I'm just trynna take off!
How can you not see? Who are you Adolf?
Birds by the flock, sending pics without a bra
And I'm trynna get it jumping like it's time for tip off
I'm a cold ass nigga, I could cross you left and right
If you putting up a fight then I'mma just shoot out your lights
Drive into your territory cause I been about that life
And since they say I always lack it, I'mma D your wife tonight
[Hook]
These critics talking hoping I fall off my grind
Little do they know, I'm grinding til' the game is mine
My old team really didn't want to see me shine
So I handle business 24/365
They knew my talent, but ain't wanna see me starting
I used to ride the bench, now I'm James Harden
Now they see me and they mad cause I'm ballin'
They were fuel to the fire, nigga this is arson!
