top of the world
(feat. ma$e)
brandy, dark child 
mase get harlem on the rise 
come on, come on, come on, come on, come on 
i went from helly hansen to mini mansions 
the girls in aruba doing belly dancin 
spent half of my advance on jars from branson 
to make it through my circumstances 
but you know im wiser now 
move like tarzan now 
got a butter soft cover just to hide my pound 
got a house in the valley come and find me now 
got enough dough to buy the town 
so i might give a six to my chick 
benz to my mom 
crib so big it look like the center gone 
give her a couch just to spill henney on 
and been a don since lottos and benneton
some people say that i am not the same girl 
they say i think that i am in my own world 
what makes them think that i have changed, yeah 
a little dough cannot erase my problems 
me like you i have to try and solve them 
yes everything is quite the same
chorus: im just trying to be me 
doing what ive got to do 
some people think that im 
just sittin on top of the world 
im just trying to be me 
proving what ive got to prove 
some people think that im 
just sittin on top of the world
sittin on top of the world 
sittin on top of the world 
sittin on top of the world 
top of the world, top of the world, top of the world 
sittin on top of the world 
top of the world, top of the world, top of the world 
yeah yeah
i wonder why its often said that my lifes 
a fairy tale and everything is so right 
i wish that you could know the truth, yeah 
my life is real so please dont get it twisted 
problems the same and got to be dealt with 
these are the things i wish you knew, oh
always in someones eye, so many questions why 
how is it to be down with me, with me 
afraid to express myself always me and someone else 
i need to be free but its not that easy
chorus: im just trying to be me 
doing what ive got to do 
some people think that im 
just sittin on top of the world 
im just trying to be me 
proving what ive got to prove 
some people think that im 
just sittin on top of the world
sittin on top of the world
dont understand why 
people think i don t have friends 
who knew me back when 
this was my dream 
nothing has changed 
i still do the same things, oh oh oh
yo, we can cut the truckin short 
if it aint about cake 
i aint sittin on top, i want a house on the lake 
im that snotty nosed cat wit a new bm 
if you mess wit brandy, i got to bruise your chin 
i be with puff, the girls be like "whos your friend?" 
if i hit a chick once, she probably move me in 
so you gotta tell me right now 
either you wit the cats who make the hits 
or the one that see the chips 
(slow down mase, youre killing em) 
but don't stop it 
whats the use of buying away 
if imma have to chop it 
i used a leather lady till i learned her logic 
she only mess wit mase, no the money aint no object 
if it aint cris, he wont pop it 
if it aint platinum wit ice, he wont rock it 
if it dont cost 60, he wont drop it 
if it dont come with tvs, he dont cop it 
you can stop it
chorus: im just trying to be me
