Young Money, we're rolling
It's the only way
In the hustle of the streets
We make our way
Welcome to Tha Carter (welcome to Tha Carter)
Where the mountains align (welcome to Tha Carter, yeah)
Where the strong survive (welcome to Tha Carter)
Welcome to Tha Carter, where dreams never die, oh, hey
High in the mountains, nigga, uh
Man of my word, I stand on my word
Y'all get on my nerves, I get high and land like a bird
Respect, I don't demand, I deserve, my standards superb
Family first, family second, family third
I scramble and swerve, scam and I serve, planned it out first
I treat sweet smart bitches like candy, like Nerds
I know the feds' cameras observe 'cause the cash is absurd
I mean, the house so fuckin' massive, I just added concierge
Emphatic, I splurge, on Addys, I surge, on Xannys, I slurs
On shrooms, I'm nothin' but a fantasizer
The DMT got me thinkin' like an analyzer
Smokin' on a pure L, no sanitizer
I'ma stand behind her and rapid fire
She say this dick a pacifier, it tranquilize her
I still eat the rappers, I heard they appetizers
You throw Weezy on a beat, you're throwin' gas on fire
Welcome to Tha Carter (welcome to Tha Carter)
Where the mountains align (welcome to Tha Carter)
Where the strong survive (welcome to Tha Carter)
Welcome to Tha Carter, where dreams never die, oh, hey
Ayo, my sun's gon' shine forever
And as long as we here, you might as well get your clouds together
Pray for cloudy weather, world peace, shout-out to Metta
And if it's beef, I turn the whole cow to leather
I ain't playin' with y'all, right hand to God
Don't act like my nigga today and a white man tomorrow
I done said it before, I'm already ready for war
You've been to Hell and back, but have you been to Heaven before?
I check the Chopard, I got time today
Smokin' that bomb LA like I'm McVay
Bombs away, I'm just tryna concentrate
While I eat lil' mama backwards like mignon filet
Time and place, here and now, I'm bearin' down
Got you starin' down a barrel, baow-baow-baow-baow
That's how the ammo sound
It's Tha Carter VI, pussy, pull your tampon out, huh
Young Money, we're rolling
It's the only way
In the hustle of the streets
We make our way
Welcome to Tha Carter (welcome to Tha Carter, Young Mulah, baby)
Where the mountains align (welcome to Tha Carter)
Where the strong survive (welcome to Tha Carter, six)
Welcome to Tha Carter, where dreams never die, oh (six, six, bitch)
Uh, Young Mulah, baby
Lay you down, Weezy F., the F for futon, baby
What you do do not faze me, you not amazing
I made a million-dollar man from a two-dollar baby
Sit your five-dollar ass down, do not make me
Turn your five-dollar ass to coupons, baby
Who got next? 'Cause I go at these new guys next
I went from checkin' niggas to the nigga who sign checks
My flow like the flu I catch, I'm higher than your tube socks stretch
Life a bitch, I'm 'bout to make her your ex
Life a bitch, you got me flirtin' with death
Welcome to Tha Carter VI and I'm servin' my guests
Her lip service the best, I guess your bitch is not my personal guest
Thanks for shoppin' at Tha Carter, where the verses stay fresh, yes
Rest in peace, Jerry West
But this is where the peace never rests
Welcome to Tha Carter (welcome to Tha Carter, and I'm higher than the peak of Everest)
Where the mountains align (welcome to Tha Carter, I'm the beast and the best, God bless)
Where the strong survive (welcome to Tha Carter)
Welcome to Tha Carter, where dreams never die, oh, hey
