Rich by popular demand
The wait is over homie
Yes it is! A-Town connect!
Know the city gon' feel this
Damn right
Say Toot, I know you see me
Chris! (What up boy?)
I know both our pops lookin at us!
I used to dream, I used to dream
Oh-ooh-oh!) (Wayne Bridges what up?!)
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I see, now I see (oh-ooh-oh!)
Because I'm sittin on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (Mama I did it!)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (hey!)
Hey, man I remember
'Fore I say that, wait, let me issue this statement
No way should reflection be mistaken for glorification
Now, I remember so vivid, me and my niggas was livin
Sub-standard condition, still handlin business
Still laughin and trippin, still havin the bitches
I'm rappin now reminiscin, and goddamn, we did it
From trappin standin in pictures with bricks we stand in the kitchen
Splittin it eight ways, flip it in eight days
Thought that wild and unruly was just the way to behave
Kept the weight in the yay, but most the paper we made
In all dimes, I ain't lyin, the pleasure was all mine
Had big work to move but we served the small time
Always outshined, them niggas was small minds
Who'd have thought we'd be arguably the greatest of all time
'Round here, we developed such a sound down here
Been duplicated off the steel, you known to be found here
Only listen to Gs, that other shit I don't hear
They so far in the rear, why would I even care?
I'm too busy bein a player, steerin niggas careers
Been talkin 'bout it for years, and now we finally here
I used to dream, I used to dream (oh-ooh-oh!)
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I see, now I see (oh-ooh-oh!)
Because I'm sittin on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)

They say what goes up must come down
But I ain't reached my cruisin altitude
Take a look at what I did
But can you imagine what I'm about to do?
The places I'm 'bout to go and the money I'm 'bout to see
Gave Bill Gates some binoculars and said, "Look out for me!"
Exceeded expectations, even at Def Jam
Cause I married the streets and Atlanta has been my best man
My momma quit her job and now she works with six figures
Cause I'm a self-made, nappy-headed rich nigga!
Private planes help me travel in peace
To four cities in one day and four countries in one week
Cause I, work for myself and no one else cause I'm too smart to
Put one of my partners right through culinary arts school
Now he my personal chef, so that bread, he get it
Put 'em all in houses, cleaned up all of my friends' credit
And now they witness all the glitz and the glamour
Catch us eatin at Straits Atlanta with women with table manners
Orderin Singaporean lobster, celebratin comin from nothin
To winnin Grammys and rappers winnin Oscars
Yeah, and they say rappers shouldn't act
Naw suckers, we see Samuel L. Jackson like, "What's up motherfucker?!"
I used to dream, I used to dream (oh-ooh-oh!)
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I see, now I see (oh-ooh-oh!)
Because I'm sittin on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)
I know them haters don't stop plottin and wishin we fall
Cause we standin on top lookin down at it all
See from down there to y'all, it seem like I got it all
Homie I ain't get enough, I'm still tryin to triple up
That's why we got StreetCred and Akoo buildin up
Say I'm doin too much, shit I say I ain't did enough
Remember sayin, "Damn, if I could just get to a million plus"
And now I'm like, "Nigga, what the fuck is a million bucks?"
Tripled that on my bond, thanks to Biggs and Run
But never mind what I been through, just look at what I've become
All the shit I've avoided, what I done for my sons
And daughters and momma, just call her
I sold dope and dropped out of school, seems that's all they can see
They don't notice none of my family did that since me
I broke that cycle, now my family live a life of
Mandatory minimums, but not when the judge sentence 'em
Cousins in college, where you think they get tuition from?
Just from standin 'round wishin huh?
And while you standin 'round lookin dumb
I make it happen, takin action, over time got goddamn good at it
I used to dream, I used to dream (oh-ooh-oh!)
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I see, now I see (oh-ooh-oh!)
Because I'm sittin on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)
And now I see, see, see, see
Cause I'm sittin on top of the world (ay, ay, ay, ay)
