Wishing I could rap my whole life up in 24 karats of gold
|
Lately I¡¯ve been dreaming ¡¯bout diamonds and pearls
|
Yup, diamonds and pearls, and enough money I could rule the world
|
|
(If I ruled the world)
|
|
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
|
If I ruled the world, I would buy it all
|
I¡¯m addicted to champagne and buying the mall
|
I¡¯m addicted to living life above the law
|
How much do it take to live above the law?
|
I call my homie Ralph up, cause his car stop
|
Told him bump a new car, come grab the car lot
|
That way you can have convertibles, and a hard top
|
Open up a few doors, since we had a hard knock, life
|
Like, open up, Where restaurants and legs stay opened up
|
Start a franchise
|
So my dog can quit wearing a 44 up on his waist like it¡¯s his pants size
|
And to my OG locked up bumping Ready or Not
|
Who was just trying to do it big, but wasn¡¯t ready to die
|
Cop a first class whatever he like, with hoes already inside
|
Now he can rest in piece while he alive
|
|

[Verse 2]
|
Seems life¡¯s never at a stand still, even in a photo
|
Thinking about an the ex girl, I hold though
|
Like would we have won it all, or would I have lost it all like Ocho
|
The things I think about the most are things I never know though
|
Like, why don¡¯t school teach more mathematics
|
Less trigonometry and more about taxes
|
They at the chalkboard, teaching us ass backwards
|
How about preparing us for life, instead of lab rat us
|
With a mansion that¡¯s about 5 floors
|
No more sleeping on the couches, cause we got 5 more
|
With the fam that reminded me what I¡¯m alive for
|
And at the same time remind me what I¡¯d die for
|
A world where you wouldn¡¯t need sleep
|
That way we¡¯d catch up instead of chase dreams
|
And finally get the speed boat my dad always wanted
|
I swear I feel it coming
|
|

|
[Verse 3: J. Cole]
|
Is this a dream, well that¡¯s how it feels
|
Sometimes I got to pinch a fat ass to see if it¡¯s real
|
I specifically remember, no heat in the winter
|
Now I supply heat for the winter
|
Then I skate to the beach for the winter
|
When it comes to chips boy, nigga get a grip
|
No cleats I¡¯m a winner
|
Show love to the hoes and the freaks I remember
|
Hit the club and raise hell all week for the sinners
|
Meet the young Dennis, the menace of society
|
Check my sobriety fuck hoes in varities
|
Shame that these things is the reasons you admire me
|
But, I¡¯m getting doe man these flows ¡®gon retire me
|
Splurging all crazy, switching lanes in the Range swerving all crazy
|
Style on the dial, I¡¯ve been serving ya¡¯ll lately
|
Cheddar on Federer
|
Ball ¡¯till I fall, et cetera, et cetera
|
