Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Um
Yeah
Well
You could have the world in the palm of your hand
You still might drop it
And everybody wanna reach inside your pockets
I tell 'em red light, stop it
Shit, that give me more headaches than alcoholics
There was nothin' in my wallet, just a lot of dreaming
I built a crib on top of the Promised Land, we'll call it even
Hm, I bring more flavor than all the seasons
Winter, spring, summer, fall, the grass is always greener 'til I cut it all
Please leave me to my studies, I give you no applause
My hands been counting money, and it's hard to be the boss
But somebody gotta do it (It gets so exhausting)
Often with the bullshit, but, baby, I been through it
Enough for the both of us
So come over later and we won't let no one close to us
We could be posted up
Yeah
Okay, well, you could have the world in the palm of your hand
You still might drop it
And everybody wanna reach inside your pockets
So it goes
It's like, in every conversation, we the topic
This narcissism, more like narcotics
So it goes
Well, everybody gather 'round
I'm still standin', sit down
Woah-oh
And I know been out (And I know I been out)
But now I'm back in town (But now I'm back in town), so I
Show you the ropes
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
La-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
So it goes (So it goes)
La-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
So it goes
Well, this is a special delivery
Coming to you live with the
Endless artillery, always down to ride
My eyes on the enterprise
Nine lives, never die, fuck a heaven, I'm still getting high
Never mind, did I mention I'm fine
'Cause her pussy gettin' wetter when the weather dry
Clementine, peelin' off and everyone get left behind
I'm only 5'7", 'cept I'm feelin' like I'm 7'5"
Damn it, cross planets, interstellar
Never land, not a Jackson, packed with action
So what's happenin', my man?
No relaxin', kickin' back, this ain't exactly in the plan
I can't get no satisfaction, goddamn
They sayin' I been gone too long
I could just tell 'em fuck you, but that come on too strong
My god, it go on and on
Just like a circle, I go back where I'm from
Well, everybody gather around
I'm still standing, sit down
Woah-oh
And I know been out (And I know I been out)
But now I'm back in town (But now I'm back in town), so I
Show you the ropes
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
La-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
So it goes (So it goes)
La-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
So it goes
