Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lil' **** you gotta light a fire
This is far, far from the East my G
You far, far away
A real man, be really getting his fuckin' money, my ****
Why you stressed?
Life is not that sad baby bro
Get up and get off your ass and get this fuckin' money
[Verse 2]
I got to make something for myself, myself, ooh
Don't forget you chose this life
Welcome to your paradise
Lay in your bed, reap what you sow
Welcome to your paradise
[Verse 3]
I used to stand on the Rockies
I used to stand on the rock
On the rock of Gibraltar
Father told me it faltered
Picking fights with my pops
Asked forgiveness a lot
But I don't need God's forgiveness
Can I get me a witness
[Verse 4]
I could cry, but I gotta pick my battles tonight, tonight
I could cry, I'll be fighting for the rest of my life, my life
[Verse 5]
Don't forget you chose this life
Welcome to your paradise
Lay in your bed, reap what you sow
Welcome to your paradise
[Verse 6]
Yeah, do you want to be a father?
Or do you want to take it farther?
Leave the woman that you'd break your heart for at the alter
'Cause you were offered a life that you would trade your heart for
Ain't gotta die to see Heaven, I got your Heaven, ****
Would rather rev on an engine you, than ever reverend, ****
Black sheep packing weapons, you're 911's, ****
How could worship be worth it, you love your God like yourself
So you deserve to be perfect, you deserve for your car to skrrt
And your girl don't be skirtless
Fuck on a Saturday, ****, I'll miss Sunday service
Yeah, you made you a hundred verses, a hundred versions
That's why you need you hundred versions, a hundred virgins
Yeah, you wear your crown with a frown sometimes
You can't help but feel down at times
You were raised in the basement
Yeah, you used to pray on your spaceship
[Verse 7]
I gotta make something for myself, myself
If you want to get this money
Come and join me
If you want to get this money
Come and join me
If you want to get this money
Come and join me
If you want to get this money
Come and join me
