|

|
| I’m on top of the world

|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I was born into poverty raised in the sewage
|
| Streets will always would be a part of me, they made me the truest
|
| And even when my days wasn’t the bluest
|
| I never ran from adversity, instead I ran to it
|
| Fear ain’t in the heart of me, I learned «just do it»
|
| You get courage from your fears right after you go through it
|
| Now I come through in a Coupe on 22's
|
| That ain’t bad for a nigga who ain’t even finish school
|
| Don’t get me wrong I ain’t never been a fool
|
| I just put off graduating for a pair of tennis shoes
|
| I used to use the beats to paint my pain
|
| But nowadays man I can’t complain
|
| I got several automobiles and they all on them thangs
|
| Several solitaires and they all in one chain
|
| They used to see me in the mall, I’m the same
|
| And gettin brains from a couple of broads on the plane
|
| I keep telling myself «Man, I’m living the good life»
|
| I’m living the good life
|
| I keep telling myself «Man, I’m living the good life»
|
| I’m living the good life
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I come from Chi-Town lost and found in the struggle
|
| Where dudes say «stay safe» and «say out of trouble»
|
| Speakers muffled, the law and BMs try to cuff you
|
| Those with duffles move weight and have muscle
|
| I dug through the dirt with a verse for the people
|
| Open up for Daddy Kane and Eazy at the Regal
|
| The radio rarely put their needle on my record
|
| They ain’t see how the hood and heaven were connected
|
| Sounds projected, ain’t show how effective
|
| Lessons learned, sessions turned to life reflected
|
| And everything I found real in life, yo I kept it
|
| They say life’s a teacher, you’re gonna get tested
|
| When a nigga changed they kept saying «that nigga strange»
|
| They couldn’t see how my mind on bigger things
|
| Ahead of my time now I caught up with the game
|
| Making good music, making paper, making change
|
| And it’s good
|
| I keep telling myself «Man, I’m living the good life»
|
| I’m living the good life
|
| I keep telling myself «Man, I’m living the good life»
|
| I’m living the good life
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| Gasoline drawers, I stood in the fire
|
| With enough heat to set the hood on fire
|
| Man you niggas think Suge was off the wire
|
| You should’ve seen the squad before I had Messiah
|
| We assumed the title as the number one supplier
|
| Felt like I was selling blow since I was in diapers
|
| And we wish a nigga would come try us
|
| We was cool with the killers, best friends with the lifers
|
| Quick to up and scrap if a nigga wanna to deny
|
| For what we considered then a lucrative empire
|
| But like that pimping time flash by you
|
| Now I wonder what the judge think as he reading my priors
|
| 'Cause prisons ain’t full and the reaper ain’t bias
|
| Anybody telling ya different’s a damn liar
|
| Gave the jail hell and shot birds at the hearse
|
| Lived through worse and reversed the curse
|
| I keep telling myself «Man, I’m living the good life»
|
| I’m living the good life
|
| I keep telling myself «Man, I’m living the good life»
|
| I’m living the good life
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world
|
| I’m on top of the world |
