The one, remember me? I'm lookin kinda different these days, don't you agree? Your boy's going big these days, didn't even see? The hell with the devil, there's no sympathy The wishes in my past are still ridin me All I can do is laugh as they lie to me You can't take my God from inside of me Crosses up, light up the sky with me I got a lot of crazy crazy on my mind Like what's the real reason that the pope resigned? I got Van Halen, I don't need a bassline I knew we can do it, it was just a matter of time Put the axels back on the street and break on the vine I came back to take back everything that was mine If I live to be 1-0-9 I'm still in my prime If I don't then I don't, I'll live on in your mind Oh oh oh, mama we made it, aye Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world Oh oh oh, I told you we'd make it Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world I'm on a hacksaw tour, Eddie got a Frankenstein aimed at your door Speakers under the stage, lift you off of the floor Why?
