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 |
