Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, J.O.E.
Good evening ladies and gentleman and royalty
I got my man Roy Allen on the track and my dawg Bishop
Well
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Verse 2]
Don't argue much now that I
Acquired some things of the good life
Three sixty Medina, how things have changed
A crib with a east and west wing
I gotta thank God for my life and all
He keeps blessin' me with more and more
[Verse 3]
I'm far too up on now that I see that I
Can reach for a dream and pull it from the sky
Sweeter than sugar is what I dream
My life would be, if left up to me
And oh, I like that
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Verse 4]
Shoppin' sprees, trips over seas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
The cars I want, I buy the lot
The cribs I want, I buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Verse 5]
Moderate players, that's what we are
About gettin' paper, feel me God
No longer out there, chasing dreams
I'm living the words of the song I sing
Gotta thank my fans for your support
For you all keep loving me more and more
[Verse 6]
I'm far too up on now that I see that I
Can reach for a dream and pull it from the sky
Sweeter than sugar is what I dream
My life would be, if left up to me
And oh, I like that
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Verse 7]
Shopping sprees, trips over seas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
The cars I want, I buy the lot
The cribs I want, I buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
[Verse 8]
Cars, jewels and chips, word
Rimb, cribs and chicks, word
Love for the streets, I got it
Cars, jewels and chips
Rims, cribs and chicks
Love for the streets
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Verse 9]
Shoppin' sprees, trips over seas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
The cars I want, I buy the lot
The cribs I want, I buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
[Verse 10]
Shoppin' sprees, trips over seas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
The cars I want, I buy the lot
The cribs I want, I buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
[Verse 11]
(Sweeter than sugar)
Better than sugar
Better than sugar
