On Top Of World

Rich by popular demand (The wait is over homie)

Yes it is, A-Town connection! (Know the city gon' feel this)

Damn right (Say Toot, I know you see me, 'Cris)

Whattup boy (I know both our pops lookin at us)

I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh)

About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)

But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa (ohh)

Because I'm sittin on top of the world (the whole world)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, ay, ay)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, yeah, yeah)

Ay, man I remember 'fore I stay that way, let me issue this statement

No way should reflection be mistaken for glorification

Now I remember so vivid, me and my *****z was livin (how)

Sub-standard condition, still handlin business (that right)

Still laughin and trippin, still happen to *****es (okay)

I'm rappin not reminiscin, and goddamn it we did it

From trappin, standin and pitchin with riches stand in the kitchen

Splittin it eight ways, flip it in eight days

Thought to wild and unruly but just the way to behave

Kept the weigh and the yay' for most the paper we made

And all dimes, I ain't lyin, the pleasure was all mine

Had big work to move but we served the small time

Always outshine the *****z with small minds

Who would thought we'd be arguably the greatest of all time

'Round here, we develop such a sound down here

Been duplicated often still can only be found here (BANKHEAD)

Only listen to G's, that other sh*t I don't hear

Sh*t, they so far in the rear, why would I even care

I'm too fit to bein a player, stare at *****z careers

Been talkin 'bout it for years and now we finally here

I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh)

About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)

But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa (ohh)

Because I'm sittin on top of the world(the whole world)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, ay, ay)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, yeah, yeah)

They say what goes up must come down but I ain't reach my cruisin altitude

Take a look at what I did, but can you imagine what I'm about to do

The places I'm 'bout to go and the money I'm 'bout to see

Gave Bill Gates some binoculars and said, Look out for ME

Exceeded expectations, even at Def Jam

Cause I married the streets and Atlanta has been my best man

My momma quit her job and now she works with six figures

Cause I'm a self-made nappy headed RICH NI**A! (OHH)

Private planes help me travel in peace

To fo' cities in one day and fo' countries in one WEEK

Cause I, work for myself and no one else cause I'm too smart to

Put one of my partners right through culinary art school (WOO)

Now he my personal chef so that bread he get it

Put 'em all in houses, cleaned up all of my friends' credit (true)

And now they witnessed all the glitz and the glamour

Catch us eatin at Straits Atlanta with women with table manners

Orderin Singaporean lobster

Celebratin comin from nothin to winnin Grammy's and rappers winnin Oscars

Yeah, and they say rappers shouldn't act, nah suckers

We see Samuel Jackson like, WHAS'S UP MOTHER ****ER

I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh)

About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)

But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa (ohh)

Because I'm sittin on top of the world! (the whole world)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, ay, ay)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, yeah, yeah)

Hey, hey

I know them haters don't stop plottin and wishin we fall

Cause I'm standin on top lookin down at it all (I see you)

Down all to y'all, it seems like I got it all

Homie I ain't get enough, we still tryin to triple up

That's why we got StreetCred and Akoo buildin up

Say I'm doin too much, sh*t, I say I ain't did enough

Remember sayin, Damn, if I could just get to a million plus

And now I'm like, Sh*t, what the **** is a million bucks

Triple that on my bond, thanks to Bigs and Run (appreciate it *****)

But never mind what I been through, just look at what I become

All this sh*t I've avoided, what it done for my sons

And daughters and momma; just call her

I sold d**e and dropped out of school, seems it's all they can see

They don't notice none of my family did that since me (nah)

I broke that cycle, now my family live a live for

Mandatory minimals, but not when the judge sentence us

Cousins in college, where you think they get tuition from

(Answer that) Just for standin 'round wishin, huh

Hey while you stand around lookin dumb, I make it happen

Takin action over time, got damn good at it

I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh)

About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)

But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa (ohh)

Because I'm sittin on top of the world! (the whole world)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)

Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)

And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)
