Walk Through Concert Doors
And Roam All Over Coliseum Floors
I Stepped On Stage, At Live Aid
All The People Gave An Applause That Paid
And Out Of Speakers I Did Speak
I Wore My Sneakers But I’m Not A Sneak
My Adidas Cuts The Sand Of A Foreign Land
With Mic In Hand I Cold Took Command
My Adidas And Me Both Askin P
We Make A Good Team My Adidas And Me
We Get Around Together, Rhyme Forever
And We Won’t Be Mad When Worn In Bad Weather
My Adidas!
My Adidas!
My Adidas!
Standin On 2 Fifth St.
Funky Fresh And Yes Cold On My Feet
With No Shoe String In Em, I Did Not Win Em
I Bought Em Off The Ave With The Tags Still In Em
I Like To Sport Em That’s Why I Bought Em
A Sucker Tried To Steal Em So I Caught Em And I Thwart Em
And I Walk Down The Street And I Bop To The Beat
With Lee On My Legs And Adidas On My Feet
And Now I Just Standin Here Shooting The Gif
Me And D And My Adidas Standing On 2 Fifth
My Adidas!
My Adidas!

This pair of shoes jumped out at me. They have a lot of advantages the most important one being that no self respecting gang banger, drug dealer, pimp or teenage kid would ever buy let alone wear them. Secondly, nothing wrong with a little colour in life is there? Thirdly, no one else I know would wear them; in fact everyone else seems to hate them, so there will be no embarrassing moments when I turn up at a party wearing the same shoes as the host. Fourthly only 20 quid!

No self-respecting life form would want to wear those trainers
I don’t want to diss your style but good grief the colours! I need very dark shades just to look at them. It will not rain the day you wear these as the rainbow will already be out

I like them - do not listen to people who like purple and orange. A true son of Gikuyu and Mumbi will like them because the cost £20.00. They will protect your feet and are comfortable. So what if they chase away the rain - who needs rain in this country anyway?

God, yahwa! do you have Luos next to you? You should learn how to dress in this land. Forget kigomba for ones.
As for the colors, only forest guards can associate with the green color, no offence.

Dude..respect to you for doing your own thing. I wouldn’t wear them, I probably wouldn’t even walk down the street with you if you chose to wear them
