Skyzoo - Jansport Strings (One Time For Chi-Ali) Lyrics
One time up for Chi Ali
Cause I could be in a box if I ain't see that screen
My mama prayed that I wouldn't be Chi Ali
Now my mama straight cause I wanted to be Chi Ali
They say my Jansport strings was tying it all together
My Jansport strings was tying it all together, and now that new thing got me riding out for whatever
One time up, sowing the sides up
Hometown heroes, like you know where to find us
Looking over your shoulder like I'm slowing the ride up
First time listeners, they ain't kno what a line was
Blue & orange everything, loaded the line up
Got em looking for lines like they hope they can tie up
A spoon full of 'ron when I shoot & give a bar
Give or take, I'm in a space that's usually regarded
Look at who they telling me to par with
Pardon me though, bred different so I'm arguably so
You arguing over crowns dude arguably no
I was fitted to wear that fitted and wear that living
For the living, you hear that penning?, well yea that did it
I mean, its all just as real as they say
And blame Chi if anybody is feeling a way, one time
One time up for Chi Ali
Cause I could be in a box if I ain't see that screen
My mama prayed that I wouldn't be Chi Ali
Now my mama straight cause I wanted to be Chi Ali
They say my Jansport strings was tying it all together
My Jansport strings was tying it all together
My Jansport strings was tying it all together, and now that new thing got me riding out for whatever
Doing numbers, tryna do the summer
Dreaming outta control, said we tryna coupe the Hummers
Leaning out of a hole like we tryna duck the edges
And leaving papi alone cause we out here running credit
Young, early 90's in the heart of the K
Saw the servers, corners had targets for days
Any reason is a go, how they squeezing you should know
Draped in Columbia jackets, beepers & Girbauds
I mean, played lockers with tomorro's front pagers
White & purple huaraches, tryna murder the lobby
I mean, all we knew is what we saw first
Wheels up for whatever til it all works
And I tell 'em one time up for Chi Ali
Cause I could be in a box if I ain't see that screen
Grey basements on all of my fitteds, if I'm on then we did it
Applaud with it if you see my lead, one time
One time up for Chi Ali
Cause I could be in a box if I ain't see that screen
My mama prayed that I wouldn't be Chi Ali
Now my mama straight cause I wanted to be Chi Ali
They say my Jansport strings was tying it all together
My Jansport strings was tying it all together
My Jansport strings was tying it all together, and now that new thing got me riding out for whatever

Skyzoo Jansport Strings (One Time For Chi-Ali) Comments
What's Jansport strings?? What's the meaning behind it
The strings that hang off jansport bookbag zippers...cats used to get robbed for them back in the day. I remember having like 20 strings at one point
Omg ❤️✨🤪
Slaps to this day
If you can’t write a hook you don’t have to have one.
This brought back memories
Dres from Black sheep and Chi Ali.
Look at who they tellin me to par with
Gives me the chills
Joe Bataan sample nice!
#bedstuy
Yessir!!!
Word the end of this
Black&White
Early 80's
Fun fun fun fun fun
word? when was this?
Awesome video
Probably giving the win to Statik Selektah for flipping the sample - check out "Sam Jack"
In the Uk when I was young, You would get laughed at for sporting a Jansport bag.
Love Skyzooooooo!
cant wait to get his album
hell yea
Curren$y aint underground anymore fool
9th Vs Statik Selektah?
Where are you from Sky?
Gio Datu Sky fron the same area Notorious B.I.G. grew up.
Damn these gangsters be playing Frisbees in da hood :D
Nigga iLL no doubt
VIDEO MUSIC BOX!!! That show needs to come back. It's was the 1st Hip-Hop TV show ever.
E Wonder As a kid in MY I use to watch that music show where you to call in and request videos. His name was Bobby ..something. can't remember his last name.
Eazy Breezy Flavor Videos. Dudes name was Bobby Simmons from Stetsasonic, I believe.
JIN GOT THE WIN BCUZ OF THE HYPE. WE ALL KNOW WHO REALLY WON
NO ITS NOT
Yes, the guy beaten by Jin I believe
Duckdown!!!
if we want hip hop to change we need to buy real hip hop artists CD's in the stores
Isnt this the guy that got beat on BET Freestyle Friday?
this song is art
one of the best albums of the year very slept on
All I have to say is dammit Skyzoo you've done it again. Every album is a classic and is better than the last. I thought Nas and Gangrene had my vote for album of the year then when I copped A Dream Deferred I fell in love with it. It stays on heavy rotation around my circle and every track is a banger. Thanks for another classic dude.
28k views... underrated..
he already on it pimpin...
crazy...its like he heard you or some shit...
the irony
Love Skyzoo. Hip-hop at its finest
Stop trying to front like you were ahead.
One thing I miss about not living in NYC is Video Music Box. Ralph was breaking videos for cats that weren't getting radio play in New York. It was especially important
YES DO ITTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Skyzoo all day!! I can't live without this cat!
Beautiful. Visual is dope
Great song.
I always thought that Jan Sport was a Dutch brand, cause it means John Sport. But it is an American brand in fact
yh i'll be coppin the album in physical form
good, better,...SKYZOO!!!
Met dude in Tdot. Really humble and cool. This is undeniable
Much Respect Skyzoo
(In my Dr Dre voice) DAAAYYYMM THAT SHIT WAS DOPE!!!
DOPE!!! Skyzoo stay comin' correct with that real! Word Up! Peace!
#ADreamDeferred
Amazing visual + a good single / song now this is the Sky I wanted to hear, Glad you dropped this song I actually started college yesterday, thank you Skyzoo.
jANspORT STRingS!dAtsoFfIciAL:0
Awwwwww refreshin'.......Always when 'Zoo does it!!!
PURE HIP-HOP.
Joe Bataan-What Good Is A Castle
Get Skyzoo's new EP Theo VS J.J., more fire. rapalbumofthemonth com dot
tru dat.....if i'm not mistaken they supposed to be working on another cloud 9 joint but i heard that a year or two ago.....he's still on jamla so you never know....i feel you though
I know and I love it!! But its the only one on the album which is a real big disappointment in my opinion, especially when 9th had like 5 tracks on The Salvation.
this is a 9th beat
this n***** is the nicest at this point in the game......keep killin' em SKY!!!
hip-hop music. 1 x 4 Chi-Ali
Taken back to Andreis Hudde Jnr High. Plus more rappers need to gesture at the camera with a slice of pizza.
Why arn't there more 9th Wonder beats on A Dream Deferred?!
Cmach91 Good question
yup like premo.. and they are two of the greatest.
fucking dope!! same sample as sam jack by statik selektah!!
skyzoo always brings it salute
Big up sky
