Kanye West - Good Life Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring T-Pain ]

Like we always do at this time

I go for mine, I gots to shine

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky

I go-go for mine, I gots to shine

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky



I'ma get on this TV mama, I'ma

I'ma put shit down

Ayy (ayy), ayy (ayy)

Ayy (ayy), ayy (ayy)

I'm good



Welcome to the good life

Where niggas who sell D

Won't even get pulled over in they new V

The good life, let's go on a living spree

Shit, they say the best things in life are free

The good life, it feel like Atlanta

It feel like L.A., it feel like Miami

It feel like N.Y., summertime Chi, ahh

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky

So I roll through good

Y'all pop the trunk, I pop the hood, Ferrari

And she got the goods

And she got that ass, I got to look, sorry

Yo, it's got to be 'cause I'm seasoned

Haters give me them salty looks, Lawry's

50 told me, "Go 'head, switch the style up

And if they hate then let 'em hate

And watch the money pile up" the good life



Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky

Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky (ayy)



I'ma get on this TV mama, I'ma

I'ma put shit down

Ayy (ayy), ayy (ayy)

Ayy (ayy), ayy (ayy)

I'm good



Welcome to the good life

Where we like the girls who ain't on TV

'Cause they got more (ass than the models)

The good life, so keep it coming with the bottles

'Til she feel booze like she bombed at Apollo

The good life, it feel like Houston

It feel like Philly, it feel like D.C.

It feel like VA, or the Bay, or Yay

Ayy, this is the good life

Welcome to the good life

Uh, homie, tell me what's good

Why I only got a problem when you in the hood?

Welcome to the good life

Like I'm new in the hood, the only thing I wish

(I wish a nigga would)

Welcome to the good life

He probably think he could, but, but

I don't think he should

Welcome to the good life

50 told me, "Go 'head, switch the style up

And if they hate then let 'em hate

And watch the money pile up" the good life



Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine (yeah)

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky

Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine

Now throw yo' hands up in the sky (ayy)



I'ma get on this TV mama, I'ma

I'ma put shit down

Ayy (ayy), ayy (ayy)

Ayy (ayy), ayy (I'm good)



Have you ever popped champagne on a plane

While getting some brain?

Whipped it out, she said, "I never seen snakes on a plane"

Whether you broke or rich, you gotta get this

Havin' money's the everything, not havin' it is

I was splurgin' on trizz

But when I get my card back activated

I'm back to Vegas (welcome to the good life)

'Cause I always had a passion for flashin' before I had it

I close my eyes and imagine the good life (hey)



Is the good life better than the life I live

When I thought that I was gonna go crazy

And now my grandmama ain't the only girl calling me baby

And if you feelin' me now then put your hands up in the sky

And let me hear you say hey, hey, hey, ooh

I'm good
