[00:27.934]Some live the good life loungin' by the pool
[00:30.437]Catching a suntan and everything's cool
[00:32.685]Male or female, you want to be set
[00:34.942]In the big mansion drinking Moet
[00:37.182]You read the Wall Street Journal
[00:38.691]Later for the comic
[00:39.933]Far from dumb because you practice logic
[00:41.943]You lived poor in the ghetto
[00:43.683]Never had the money easily
[00:45.183]But, you found the remedy
[00:46.935]So, you, your girl, and your kids can have a better opportunity
[00:49.943]And teach them all about unity
[00:51.933]Cuiltivate in the brains the word of Allah the master
[00:54.947]And they go far
[00:56.196]But, you still go visit your old stomping ground
[00:58.442]Indeed to help another that's down
[01:00.939]A tough situation cuts like a knife
[01:03.937]In search of the good life
[01:07.124]
[01:24.131]From the church, the home, on down to the prison
[01:26.386]People want to know how is he and she living
[01:28.874]Does he work?
[01:29.379]Do you wonder if his life will bloom?
[01:30.878]Is the girl going to have the kid anytime soon?
[01:33.126]How's the mother?
[01:34.130]Do they ever go visit the brother?
[01:35.636]What about the dad?
[01:37.124]I heard he drinks undercover
[01:38.379]Some are still shooting up, another on crack
[01:40.374]Just the other day trooper got sent back
[01:42.636]What type of life do you lead?
[01:44.384]Tell me
[01:45.134]Cause you can be anything you want to be
[01:47.128]Some will strive for the good life in any case
[01:49.632]The mind is a terrible thing to waste
[01:52.383]On drugs, violence, and hatred of another color
[01:55.375]Hear me now, brother
[01:57.063]All around the world the husband and wife
[01:58.827]Work night and day in search of the good life
[02:01.819]
[02:39.063]The G double O-D L-I-F-E
[02:41.076]Living in luxury
[02:42.324]Care free
[02:43.571]Period
[02:44.320]No time to waste
[02:45.066]We catch ours all day
[02:46.812]We work instead of play
[02:48.072]I B-U-I-L-D inside me
[02:50.313]Knowledge and quickly you vacate the city
[02:52.819]From a paranoid mental delusion
[02:55.064]Plain and simple
[02:56.300]I won't cause confusion
[02:57.824]Yo, that's your fault
[02:58.813]Stop the somersault
[02:59.825]Cause I put the bad like mo to a halt
[03:02.257]My destiny I define is heavenly
[03:05.008]So, Fort Knox, open sesame
[03:07.007]Light shines and the birds keep singing
[03:09.203]As I still cling to my positive upbringing
[03:11.460]With the need to succeed, right?
[03:14.206]On a natural high
[03:15.466]The good life
