Getting Hot
Shoot one, that's a made shot
The shot was a swish
Made another one, looks like I’m getting hot
I’m hot and you’re not
I’m shooting like that of a wish
Shoot one, that’s a made shot
Making many, I must be on top
5 kinds of dunks, and I’m wondering which
Made another one, looks like I’m getting hot
Pass to me once I get to my spot
Go for the layup, off the backboard a kiss
Shoot one, that’s a made shot
Check out my balance, I almost forgot
NBA money, I’m rich
Made another one, looks like I’m getting hot
I shoot so much, and that’s not all that I’ve got
Everything I do is truly bliss
Shoot one, that’s a made shot
Made another one, looks like I’m getting hot
