Then we laugh in the iller path
The Villa house is for the crew
How we do
Trees for breakfast
Dime b*****s and Benz stretches
So many years of depression
Make me vision
The better living
Type of place to raise kids in
Open they eyes to
The lies history's told foul
But I'm as wise as the old owl
Plus the Gold Child
Seeing things like I was controlling
Click rolling
Tricking six digits on kicks
And still holding
Trips to Paris I civilized every savage
Gimme one shot
I turn trife life to lavish
Political prisoner set free stress free
No work release purple M3's
And jet skis
Feel the wind breeze
In West Indies
I make Coretta Scott-King
Mayor the cities
And reverse themes to Willies
