Goodlife |
| 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 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 |
