Maybach Curtains (feat. Nas, John Legend & Rick Ross)

Look how far we came, look how far we came

Through the fire, I still knowing we would rain

Feels like yesterday when all this was a dream

Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed

Look how far we came

Through the fire, I still knowing we would reign

It feels like yesterday when all this was a dream

Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed

Yeah, it was all a dream

On a corner serving all the fiends

Me and a bunch of my ****, yeah, we was all a team

The system labelled us killers, but Mama called us kings

Walked through the hall of a prison, now, it's the hall of fame

And people have the nerve to ask why I wear all these chains

When I was booked they had me shackled to the wall of shame

So I'm just representing, better yet just reminiscing

Put down on that Bentley truck, I used to want the Expedition

Now, it's bigger things, grew up and got bigger dreams

'Cause in my hood, **** try to smoke you just like Nicotine

And this money shit ain't funny, all the shit it brings

You bound to lose your family and your friends, boy this shit is mean

And birthdays was the worst days, last week I made a hundred on Thursday

And Club Liv got me sinning on a church day

Stevie J all on the mic, he screaming out my birthplace, Philly, we back

Look how far we came

Through the fire, I still knowing we would reign

It feels like yesterday when all this was a dream

Through the fire, I see how life has changed

Yo, I'm blunted, you wanna see life's meaning

On the radio, Al Green, while moms was cleaning

Mom singing along with the songs, and shortly I learned the words to 'em

Nerf balls I threw 'em

But now, I'm a perfectionist to a fault, like Jesus

Judging his own miracles, but he won't

'Cause he automatic, I'm like a old blue singer

Living in the bottle, who's wife left him down in the bottom

Writing songs is how we solving the problem

My liquid money's a hypnotist to your misses

Lay back like I'm in the chair of a dentist

Now, stay relentless, a freak like Prince is

Mystique like Shade, soon as I enter, people pointing, see my anointment

I ain't trying to do too much, same time

I ain't no bum **** not doing enough

But I ain't trying to do no dumb shit

Chasing my tail in a circle, I made this song chiller now

Transparent ceiling now, Nas and Meek

Look how far we came

Through the fire, I still knowing we would reign

It feels like yesterday when all this was a dream

Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed

The course intermatic, going back to Cali

Young street ****, late 80's, suede Ballys

Jewels like Rick the Ruler looking like I ripped the jeweler

I could cut a check, make some people hit your shooter

Domino effect, you in that Magic City

When all they do is flex, call 'em Milli Vanilli

Coming from the bottom, my little **** from Philly

Young legend out of Queens take over city to city

Honor thy mother, go to war fro my brother

Give him some fishing funds, to significant others

Went from poor, now, women screaming for my signature

Warm more came from the bottom, so I know the war

Never worn, always on y'all **** luke warm

Talking cash over salads, heavy croutons

Cuban links, equivalent of having suits on

Stretch Maybach, still, they bring them coupe's on

Look how far we came

Through the fire, I still knowing we would reign

It feels like yesterday when all this was a dream

Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed

Look how far we came

Through the fire, I still knowing we would reign

It feels like yesterday when all this was a dream

Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed
