Lyrics

[00:00.57] Good God Almighty. Like back in the old days.
[00:03.37] You know, years ago they had the A&R men to
[00:06.17] tell you what to play, how to play it and you know
[00:08.60] whether it's disco and rock but we just went in the
[00:11.72] studio and we did it. We had champagne in the studio,
[00:13.86] of course, you know, compliments of the company,
[00:18.00] and we just laid back and did it.
[00:21.23] So we hope you enjoy listening to this album
[00:23.35] half as much as we enjoyed playing it for you.
[00:26.00] Because we had a ball. Only real music is gonna last,
[00:31.21] all the other bullshit is here today and gone tomorrow
[00:46.30] Cash rules everything around me
[00:48.52] C.R.E.A.M. get the money
[00:52.16] Dolla dolla bill y'all
[01:06.95] After hours of Il Mulino
[01:09.01] Or Sotto Sotto, just talkin' about women and vino
[01:11.57] The contract like '91 Dan Marino
[01:14.00] I swear this got Michael Rapino boostin' my ego
[01:16.56] Overly focused, it's far from the time to rest now
[01:19.37] Debates growin' 'bout who they think is the best now
[01:21.93] Took a while, got the jokers out of the deck now
[01:24.49] Holdin' all the cards and niggas wanna play chess now
[01:26.98] I hear you talkin', say it twice so I know you meant it
[01:29.92] Fuck it, I don't even tint it, they should know who's in it
[01:32.35] I'm authentic, real name, no gimmicks
[01:34.35] No game, no scrimmage, I ain't playin' with you niggas at all
[01:37.40] My classmates, they went on to be chartered accountants
[01:40.03] Or work with their parents, but thinkin' back on how they treated me
[01:42.77] My high school reunion might be worth an appearance
[01:44.83] Make everybody have to go through security clearance
[01:47.51] Tables turn, bridges burn, you live and learn
[01:50.07] With the ink, I could murder word to my nigga Irv
[01:52.94] Yeah, I swear shit just started clickin' dog
[01:55.00] You know it's real when you are who you think you are
[01:58.17] Cash rules everything around me
[01:59.61] C.R.E.A.M. get the money
[02:03.60] Dolla dolla bill y'all
[02:18.33] I had Benzes 'fore you had braces
[02:20.32] The all black Maybach but I'm not a racist
[02:23.69] Inside's whiter than Katy Perry's face is
[02:26.19] Yellow diamonds in my Jesús
[02:28.75] I just might learn to speak Mandarin
[02:31.05] Japanese for the yen that I'm handlin'
[02:33.37] International Hov, that's my handle
[02:36.05] My saint's Sean Don, light a candle
[02:38.79] El Gran Santo on the mantle
[02:41.35] 'Case y'all didn't know, I speak Spanish too
[02:43.79] Shoutout to Worldwide Wes
[02:45.41] Everywhere we go we leave a worldwide mess
[02:48.78] Yes, still Roc La Familia
[02:51.40] Says a lot about you if you not feelin' us
[02:54.27] The homie said "Hov, there ain't many of us"
[02:56.33] I told him less is more, nigga it's plenty of us
[02:59.12] Cash rules everything around me
[03:00.55] C.R.E.A.M. get the money
[03:04.79] Dolla dolla bill y'all
[03:10.16] Cake, cake cake cake cake cake
[03:12.35] 500 million, I got a pound cake
[03:14.78] Niggas is frontin', that's upside-down cake
[03:17.27] Get 'em a red nose, they clown cakes
[03:19.90] They shoulda' never let you 'round cake
[03:22.33] Look at my neck, I got a carrot cake
[03:24.96] Now here's the icing on the cake
[03:27.20] Cake, cake cake cake cake
[03:29.76] I'm just gettin' started, oh yeah we got it bitch
[03:32.45] I've done made more millionaires than the lotto did
[03:35.06] Dame made millions, Bigg made millions
[03:37.69] Ye made millions, Just made millions
[03:40.18] Lyor made millions, Cam made millions
[03:42.62] Beans tell you if he wasn't in his feelings
[03:45.11] I'm back in my bag
[03:47.30] My eyes bloodshot but my jet don't lag
[03:49.79] A pair of Jordan 3's tryna chase this cash
[03:52.29] Gucci air bag just in case we crash
[03:54.97] Uh, last night was mad trill
[03:58.28] Fresh out of advil, Jesus grab the wheel
[04:30.60] Fuck all that happy to be here shit that y'all warned me on
[04:33.22] I'm the big homie, they still tryna lil bro me dog
[04:35.90] Like I should fall in line, like I should alert niggas
[04:38.90] When I'm 'bout to drop somethin' crazy and
[04:40.65] I say I'm the greatest of my generation
[04:42.83] Like I should be dressin' different
[04:45.26] Like I should be less aggressive and pessimistic
[04:48.28] Like I should be way more nervous and less dismissive
[04:51.15] Like I should be on my best behavior
[04:53.02] And not talk my shit and do it major like the niggas
[04:55.27] who paved the way for us
[04:56.95] Like I didn't study the game to the letter
[04:58.89] And understand that I'm not doin' it the same,
[05:01.14] man, I'm doin' it better
[05:02.95] Like I didn't make that clearer this year
[05:05.01] Like I should feel, I don't know, guilty for saying that
[05:07.31] They should more mirrors in here so I can stare at myslef
[05:10.36] These are usually just thoughts that I share with myself
[05:13.30] But I thought Fuck It its worth it to share it with
[05:15.54] someone else more than Paris for once
