Shorty Jose

Intro

Ayy, yo Danny—wait, Jose? (Jose!)

Short king? Nah, you a short joke, let's go

Skrrt, pull up on these bars, yuh

Verse

Jose, they call you Danny, what a fake-ass alias

Hidin' that height like it's top-secret classified

Five-foot-nothin', tip-toein' through the party

Reach for the shelf? Bro, need a ladder, that's the folly

Pockets full of excuses, height full of lies

Stand next to me, you disappear below my thighs

Yuh, elevator dings, you hop on first class

But when doors open, folks like "Who let the kid pass?"

Ayy, Jose the ghost, vanishin' in crowds

Short stack pancake, flat as your clout

Claim you ballin', but hoop? Can't even dunk a dream

Net swish empty, just like your self-esteem

Danny? More like mini-me, pocket-sized clown

Wear lifts in your kicks, still can't touch the ground

Friends lift you up for pics, actin' all proud

But we know the truth, you the shortest around, skrrt!

Chorus

Shorty Jose! (Jose!) Danny who? (Who?)

Tippy-toein' fool, can't see over the shoe (Shoe!)

Shorty Jose! (Jose!) Rise up if you dare

But you stay down low, height deficit nightmare

Shorty Jose! Shorty Jose! (Yuh, yuh!)

Danny the dwarf, pull up a chair (Chair!)

Shorty Jose! (Ayy!) Can't reach the sky

Little man syndrome, why even try? (Try, try!)

Verse

Real name Jose, but Danny sounds taller, huh?

Illusion game weak, we see through the bluff

Date night struggle, kiss gotta bend like limbo

Girl look down laughin', "Babe, where'd you go?"

Yuh, jeans got the hem, cuffs rolled triple thick

Hide them ankles short, walk with that hobble kick

Gym rat? Nah, you lift spirits, not weights

'Cause benches too high, can't even do plates

Ayy, group photo back row? Front row king

Photoshop your ass, make you look like a string

Jose in the club, bouncer like "Age check?"

Nah, just height check, send you to the kids' deck

Beanpole dreams, but you stump of a tree

Chop you down further? Already debris

Call you Danny to cope, but Jose owns the shame

Short forever, etch that on your frame, pow!

Chorus

Shorty Jose! (Jose!) Danny who? (Who?)

Tippy-toein' fool, can't see over the shoe (Shoe!)

Shorty Jose! (Jose!) Rise up if you dare

But you stay down low, height deficit nightmare

Shorty Jose! Shorty Jose! (Yuh, yuh!)

Danny the dwarf, pull up a chair (Chair!)

Shorty Jose! (Ayy!) Can't reach the sky

Little man syndrome, why even try? (Try, try!)

Shorty Jose! Shorty Jose! (Yuh!)

Verse

Outro roast, Jose, you know it's all love (Love?)

But facts don't lie, you low as the rug

Next time we hoop, bring the kiddie hoop set

Or stool for the squad, keep it real, no sweat

Ayy, shorty forever, own it with pride

Danny facade? Step aside, worldwide

Jose the short boss, mini empire build

But from down there? Good luck, get filled—yuh!
