[Intro: Harrison Crump]

On the couch, on the floor, on the bed

Close the door, I want more, here we go

Close the door, on the go, here we go

Now congratulate me

On the couch, on the floor, on the bed

Close the door, I want more, here we go

Close the door, on the go, here we go

Now congratulate me


[Verse 1: AKA]

Starts out with a pipe dream

White T and an ice cream

All day on the MySpace

MJ tryna buy face

I had to pay dues, had to make moves on faith

Even got booed off stage, tryna put food on plate

Dropped a couple jewels on tape

Now we got views on Base

So much, love

Trust fund and Kas'lam

Bad chick in my address and she showin' up with that plus one, woo

Through depths and peaks, wolves dressed as sheep

Better protect the key, while I pen this acceptance speech


[Refrain: AKA]

Do you see what it took, Is it clearer?

Who you see when you look in the mirror?

All the dreams and fantasies that come together

I'll be shining like a diamond that’s forever


[Chorus: JR]

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

[Verse 2: AKA, JR]

Now this the moment I’ve been waiting for my whole life

Didn’t believe it ’til I seen with my own eyes

I'ma need a black tux and a bow tie

Double cup, white chucks and a strobe light

Niggas have bad luck when they roll dice

The numbers add up and they don’t lie

Showtime, my bread butter on both sides

Took it to the champagne from the Morvite, now everybody come on

Aw’bula boot (Aw’ bula boot)

JC le Roux (w’bona)

That’s all I think about, sitting up in my room (Sitting up in my room)

Aw’kuze kuse (Aw’kuze kuse)

Aw' gin and juice (Aw’ gin and juice)

It’s all coming back to me like Déjà vu


[Chorus: JR]

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me


[Verse 3: AKA]

Think back to my old days

All I wanted was a gold chain

So stuck in my old ways

Now we all household names

What you know about sacrifice, flashing lights, rights of passage for bragging rights?

Bad romances, packs of pampers

And this ain’t time to be camera shy

My one homie got a gun in the cupboard

My other homie got a bun in the oven

Baby mama gettin' big in the stomach

Pop champagne or the Four Cousins

I think it’s time to be a man now

I feel like movin' to my gran’s house

Everybody lined up for a handout

Really I just wanna make my old man proud


[Refrain: AKA]

Do you see what it took, Is it clearer?

Who you see when you look in the mirror?

All the dreams and fantasies that come together

I'll be shining like a diamond that’s forever


[Chorus: JR]

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me

Now congratulate me
