from the west but i'm heading to the northside
that's the top, i need a crib on the shortside

i need a backyard full court size
from where the jury is the only thing that's courtside
chasing money in the city of crime

cash back so then it's black bags under my eyes
man $#&@ it i got a dream worth more than my sleep
to me playing in the game is worth more than the seats

man $#&@ these hating $$# (*##$es i'm gone
they told me no then i reverse it i'm on, i'm on!
i'm on, i'm on, they told me no then i reverse it i'm on

mama had 2 jobs i know that she was working for me
ten years later, i got her working for me
hired the whole family like mobsters

getting paid off our operation we ain't even doctors
grandma called, see me on the billboards around the city
man going around around the world so many times i'm dizzy

london or japan, orlando, walt disney
paris, abu-dhabi, california weed twistin' yup!
texas to toronto where they love that ^!$$% drizzy

all the way to detroit, the whole city $#&@ing with me
heading to the money, whole city coming with me
and i'mma rep the city 'til the reaper come and get me yup!

And this is how life should go

Everything I wanted never seem so close
Good people, good drinks, good smoke
Got me thinking this is how life should go

This is how life should go
Everything I wanted never seem so close
Family all around, all highs no lows

Got me thinking this is how life should go

[Wale]

sitting back, putting all my issues in a swisher
i keep a ? with my misses, $#&@ these other (*##$es
and this ain't biblical but this sermon is spiritual

'cause when it come to winning, convincing is only ?
the upper percentile
whipping whatever i, 460ls you

i probably go less miles, stay in a small circle
know that it's god working, police got the swine flu and these ^!$$%s is raptized
yeah, maybach poetic genius

you buying [a seven jeans?], keep mine in a seven beamer
i'm trampolining on ^!$$%s and i actually mean it
a fly ^!$$%, i keep having the gravity grievous

and while these ^!$$%s keep hating, they be asking for features
that's like a complacent atheist is asking for jesus
riding 'round without a $#&@ given

behind a dirty place like a catcher with a mitten
the best in my position, i'm passionate with lyrics
and they ain't $#&@ing with the kid like chris hansen in the kitchen

i'm handsome to these women, i'm envied by these no ones
that's no joakim noah, ^!$$% everybody know us
and even if you don't drink everybody po' up

'cause all these hating ^!$$%s probably never gon' show up
never hate on no one, your blessing's getting closer
even when i'm open, there's nothing the air colder wassup
