[00:49.26]Still laughin' and trippin', still having the *******
[00:52.44]I'm rapping now, reminiscing, and goddamn it, we did it
[00:55.50]From trappin', standin' & pitchin' with rich we stand in the kitchen
[00:58.66]Splittin' it eight ways, flip it in eight days
[01:02.07]Thought that wild and unruly was just the way to behave
[01:04.88]Kept the weight and the yay', but most the paper we made
[01:07.96]In all dimes, I ain't lyin, the pleasure was all mine
[01:11.11]Had big work to move, but we served the small time
[01:14.18]I always outshined the *****s with small minds
[01:17.25]Who woulda thought we'd be arguably the greatest of all time
[01:20.39]'Round here? we develop such a sound down here
[01:23.45]Been duplicated often, still, can only be found here
[01:26.49]Only listen to Gs, that other **** I don't hear
[01:29.65]****, they so far in the rear, why would I even care?
[01:32.67]I'm too busy a player, steering *****s careers
[01:35.79]Been talkin 'bout it for years, and now we finally here
[01:38.83]I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh!)
[01:41.96]About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
[01:44.78]But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa! (ohh!)

[02:00.38]Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, yeah, yeah)
[02:05.12]They say what goes up must come down, but I ain't reach my cruisin' altitude (nope!)
[02:07.64]Take a look at what I did, but can you imagine what I'm about to do?
[02:10.86]The places I'm 'bout to go and the money I'm 'bout to see
[02:13.86]Gave Bill Gates some binoculars and said, look out for me
[02:16.88]Exceeded expectations, even at Def Jam
[02:19.71]Cause I married the streets and Atlanta has been my best man
[02:22.77]My momma quit her job and now she works with six figures
[02:25.80]Cause I'm a self-made, nappy-headed rich *****!
[02:29.01]Private planes help me travel in peace
[02:31.77]To four cities in one day and four countries in one week, 'cause I
[02:35.16]Work for myself and no one else cause I'm too smart to
[02:38.26]Put one of my partners right through culinary art school
[02:41.40]Now he my personal chef, so that bread, he get it
[02:44.54]Put 'em all in houses, cleaned up all of my friends' credit (true!)
[02:47.56]And now they witnessed all the glitz and the glamour
[02:50.67]Catch us eatin' at Straits Atlanta with women with table manners
[02:53.75]Ordering Singaporean lobster, celebrating coming from nothing
[02:57.50]To winning Grammys, and rappers winning Oscars, yeah
[03:00.15]And they say rappers shouldn't act, nah, suckers
[03:03.17]We see Samuel L. Jackson, like, "Wassup, mother****er?!"
[03:06.36]I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh!)
[03:09.45]About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
[03:12.58]But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa! (ohh!)
[03:15.72]Because I'm sittin on top of the world! (the whole world)
[03:18.85]And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)
[03:22.12]Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, ay, ay)
[03:25.04]And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)
[03:28.30]Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, yeah, yeah)
[03:31.43]I know them haters don't stop plottin' and wishin' we fall
[03:35.16]Cause I'm standin' on top lookin' down at it all
[03:37.92]I know from down there to y'all, it seems like I got it all
[03:40.81]Homie, I ain't get enough, we still tryin' to triple up
[03:44.09]That's why we got StreetCred and Akoo building up
[03:46.96]Say I'm doing too much, **** I say I ain't did enough
[03:50.09]Remember sayin', "Damn, if I could just get to a million plus"
[03:53.23]And now I'm like, "****, what the **** is a million bucks?"
[03:56.60]Tripled that on my bond thanks to Biggs and Run
[03:59.45]But never mind what I been through, just look at what I become
[04:02.51]All this **** I've avoided, what I done for my sons
[04:05.62]And daughters and momma, just call her, I sold ****
[04:09.13]And dropped out of school, seems that's all they can see
[04:11.83]They don't notice none of my family did that since me
[04:14.94]I broke that cycle, now my family live a life of
[04:17.99]Mandatory minimums, but not when the judge sentence 'em
[04:21.42]Cousins in college, where you think they get tuition from?
[04:24.57]Just from standin 'round wishin, huh?
[04:27.07]And while you standing 'round lookin' dumb, I make it happen
[04:30.44]Takin' action, over time, got damn good at it
[04:33.41]I used to dream (I used to dream) ohh-whoa (ohh!)
[04:36.30]About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
[04:39.62]But now I see (now I see) ohh-whoa! (ohh!)
[04:42.58]Because I'm sittin on top of the world! (the whole world)
[04:45.59]And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)
[04:48.99]Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, ay, ay)
[04:51.99]And now I see (ay) see (ay) see (ay) see (ay)
[04:55.14]Cause I'm sittin on top of the world! (ay, ay, yeah, yeah)
