0:01Laaa laa la la wait 'til I get my money right
0:06I had a dream I could buy my way to heaven
0:10When I woke' I spent that on a necklace
0:12I told God I'd be back in a second'
0:16Man' It's so hard not to act reckless
0:20To whom much is given' much is tested
0:22Get arrested' guess until he get the message
0:25I feel the pressure' under more scrutiny'
0:28And what I do Act more stupidly
0:32Bought more jewelery' more Louis V' my momma couldn't get through to me
0:36The drama' people suing me'
0:40I'm on T V talking like it's just you and me
0:43I'm just saying how I feel man'
0:46I ain't one of the Cosbys' I ain't go to hill' man
0:50I guess the money should've changed him'
0:52I guess I should've forgot where I came from
0:55(hook)

1:28But I couldn't tell you who decide wars
1:30So I parallel double parked that mother f***er sideways

1:36But homey this is my day
1:39Class started two hours ago Oh am I late

1:44And you can live through anything if Magic made it
1:49They say I talk with so much emphasis'
1:53OOOO They so Sen-Sa-Tive

2:32Let the champagne splash' let that man get cash'
2:35Let that man get pass

2:39If he can move through the rumors' he can drive off of fumes' CUZ
2:43How He move in a room full of nose
2:45How He stay faithful in a room full of h**s
2:48Must be the pharoahs' he in tune with his soul'
2:51So when he buried in a tomb full of gold
