Chorus
I got Kyle Lowry on my jersey cause I'm for the 6
Yeah

Woah

OG Anunoby if I shoot I ain't trying to miss

Verse 1
I ain't trying to miss it
You can see the writings on the wall like it was hieroglyphics
Everything I make is always net it's like I'm only swishing
Fred VanVleet-ing how I'm driving in my lane I gotta go the distance (go)
We The North stay repping for the east cost, T.O
Showing up even if the degrees go below
Ain't a thing to us like a free throw
Taking shots in interviews I block em like I'm Michaud
Wooh ay
Scotiabank Arena got the seats filled
Charged Up, Back to Back wins, shout out Meek Mill
Steep hill, but we keep on climbing to the peak still
Team ill, cup just runneth over gotta refill

Chorus

Verse 2
