Ever since a young boy, I've been gettin′ buckets (buckets)Ever since a young boy, I've been gettin' buckets (buckets)

Pull it back, Kobe (Kobe-Kobe, Kobe-Kobe)

Pull it back, Kobe (woo-swish)

I′on even gotta look, I take the shot and hear it swish

I′on even touch the rim, when I pull up it's just swish

Backboard, what? Only thing I know is swish (swish)

Pull it back, Kobe (woo-woo)

Uh, rest in peace to the Mamba and Baby Gigi (rest in peace)

Still remember where I was standing after the three-peat (for real)

Fro was lined up, yelling, "Kobe", but playing peewee

Who you know that shoot the freebie right after they tear achilles? Killer

Number 8 was crazy (crazy) but 24 was scary (ooh)

Respect his name or else he might show up as Bloody Mary (Kobe, Kobe, Kobe)

Won′t forget the things he mentioned, how to get a Larry (the chip)

Whatever necessary, he tried to help prepare me

They tell us, "Never look in the eyes of a killer"

I did it out respect for the greatest at Staples Center

The closest thing to MJ, and no I ain't talkin′ Thriller

It ain't an "I" in team, but a "ME" in it, please remember, Bean

Shot clock and it's getting late

Crossover then hesitate

Skate by him like a figure eight

Whoever left, dunk bait

Give me the ball, can′t wait

Catch 'em all with the pump fake

Money good, that′s number 8

Clutch time, hard in the paint (Kobe)

Purple and gold, Laker legend (killer-killer)

Stone-cold, ain't no question

Five-time champion, the eighth wonder reigning on 'em

Take cover, switched up, then changed numbers (wow)

Many tried him, but came up short

24, king of the court

I′ma need backup, mission abort (what?)

You do not know me, you cannot hold me (MVP)

Dribbling left and right, then pull it back, Kobe (rest in peace)
