This Life

[Verse 1: Retro G]

Don't confuse this with elevator music

This is more like that elevation music

But people still looking like they don't know

So I think it's time to let it show

That is more to it than punchlines or wordplay

More anticipated than the end of a Thursday

I did it on my own, I never care what the herd say

Cause if it's my dream, Then I control it in the first place

Im out here trying to stay alive, my city an obstruction

From where they packing tools but nobody do construction

Or if you only cool if your pockets filled with something

If you try to be yourself the people label you as nothing

But fuck it, I'm about to take the whole fucking planet

I think i'll need a pardon cause that shit was so outlandish

Just always talking money, if you not you speaking Spanish

Watch me take the game just to show you who the man is, like a bandit

Now all these cameras candid

Cause im headed to the top, but a nigga never planned it

Just worked my ass off now my wishes have been granted

Now I rock so much designer got these connoisseurs jealous


[Hook: Retro G]

The bitches, the money, the cars, the clothes

This life rules the world, everybody knows

But this life will fuck you over, and that's just how it goes

But I wouldn't change a thing, cause this the life I chose

The bitches, the money, the cars, the clothes

This life rules the world, everybody knows

But this life will fuck you over, and that's just how it goes

But I wouldn't change a thing, cause this the life I chose


[Verse 2: Retro G]

Success is what you make it, but what if you don't make it

Got bitches getting naked cause im rapping like a bracelet

But if it's any problem I will go ahead and face it

And if it's any dream no liquor im gone chase it

Cause im gone stack these dollars, to get me out of basements

And im gone spit these cold raps to put me at my placement

Now im somewhere getting paid sitting there adjacent

With well known faces that go and get face lifts

A step away from greatness, I'll never take a day off

Working overtime so I know its gone pay off

But im my own boss so im never getting laid off

Feeling like a rocket im just waiting on the take off

Money on my radar, exceeding all these haters

Throwing rocks at the throne, bet they sweep them up later

Im just focused on my cash, but more problems come with paper

So im out here doing me , but not in to masturbation
