On Top Of The World Lyrics
[Chorus: Ludacris]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
[Verse 1: T.I.]
Man I remember before I say that wait let me issue this statement
No way should reflection be mistaking for glorification
Now I remember so vivid me and my niggas was living
Sub-standard condition still handling business
Still laughing and tripping still having the bitches
I'm rapping now reminiscing and god damn it we did it
From trapping standing and pitching with rich we stand in the kitchen
Splitting it eight ways flip it in 8 days
Thought that wildin unruly it was just the way to behave
Kept the weight and the yay for most the paper we made in all dimes
I ain't lying the pleasure was all mine
Have big work to move but we served the small time
I always outshined the niggas with small minds
Who would of thought we would be arguably the greatest of all time
Around here we developed such a sound down here
But duplicate it off the steel it can only be found here
Only listen to G's that other shit I don't hear
Shit they so far in the rear how would I even care
I'm too busy being a player staring at niggas careers
But talk about it for years and now we finally here
[Chorus:]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
[Verse 2: Kanye West]
Ay yo I'm feelin on top of the-
It's more than a feeling ain't it?
I be killin dame it, I'm illin and I'm illin' -
Eh eh eh meet Mr. Popular
Go get your binoculars
And see Penthouse 3 where a nigga be
Spittin fire on the PJ in my PJ's
Fire Marshall said I took it to the Max like TJ
Yea people I said Marshalls we play
I guess I'm like the Black Marshall meets Jay
Meet Ye' alligator souffle, had it made
Special Ed got head from a girl in special ed
Ya know the pretty ones in that dumb class-
But she got that dumb ass
Hit high school and got pregnant dumb fast
What happen Tisha, your boyfriend come fast?
First of all, get rid of those green contacts
The green got me so high, you catch contact
Your boyfriend gimme pound like we folks
He don't kno how we and Raw dog three strokes
Three strokes, damn do that count.
Mr. West got blessed on the west ounce pounce.
[Chorus:]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
[Verse 3: T.I.]
I know them haters don't stop plotting and wish you would fall
Cause I'm standing on top looking down at it all
I see you down there to ya'll this ain't like I got it all
Homie I ain't get enough I'm still trying to triple up
That's why we got is street cred and akoo building up
Say I'm doing too much shit I say I ain't did enough
Remember saying damn if I could just get to a million plus
And now I'm like shit what the f*ck is a million bucks
Triple that on my bond thanks to bigs and run
But never mind what I've been through just look at what I 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 it'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 minimals but not when the judge sentence them
Cousins in college where you think they get tuition from
Just for standing around wishing huh
And while you standing around looking dumb
I make it happen taking action over time got damn good at it
[Chorus:]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
