[Rick ross - verse 1]

Smoking the best spliff in a brand new benz no I'd on the track let the story begin. begin...

Lookin in the mirror but I dont see much

Staring in the streets so I dont sleep much

Watching the snakes so they dont creep up

But the way I'm gettin dis money niggaz can't keep up

U niggaz can't keep up

Niggaz got beef but it can't be much

I'm still walking thru the crowds like I can't be touched

Top back all black gretsky puck

Ice skater lil later might let me fuck

Damn, she might let me fuck

Last night I cried tears of joy

Wat did I do to deserve this

Vacheron on my wrist a year ago

I didnt even know dat bitches exist

Quarter milli for the muthafucka

No insurance on a muthafucka

Aint life a bitch, but you gotta keep her wet

Keys open doors so I gotta keep a set

Everybody knows I'ma alot of ppl's threats

Biggie smalls in the flesh livin life after my death

Yesterday I read my horoscope

Tell me lord will I be poor and broke

Tell me lord will I be dealing dope

I wanna take my momma to the pocanoes

[Cee-lo - chorus]

Whhhhyyyyyyy

[Rick ross]

But only lords knows

[Cee-lo]

To all the love ones I leave behind

Bcuz they can't see me fine

N I ask when sum1 wants 2 b me y??

Not even everything can ease my mind

If you could read my mind

My god I'm scarred

I have tattoo tears of joy

[Rick ross - verse 2]

Last nite I cried tears of joy

What did I do to deserve this

Young rich muthafucka still uneducated but dammit a nigga made it

God damn a nigga made it cremated in the church lord knows I'm blessed

Write every lawyer so you know I'm stressed

A punch in the face get you 300k

Ask glad now he back makin minimum wage

Another victim of my criminal ways

I wanna walk in the image of christ

But that bitch vivica nice

And I'm still swimming in ice

I'm just living my life

I'm just living my life

Lease a lambourgini for your pussy rate

Life is just a pussy race

Snatch a bitch take her back to your place

Next mournin I can tell you how the pussy taste

I got expensive taste

[Cee-lo - chorus]

Whhhhyyyyyyy

To all the love ones I leave behind

Bcuz they can't see me fine

N I ask when sum1 wants 2 b me y??

Not even everything can ease my mind

If you could read my mind

My god I'm scarred

I have tattoo tears of joy

[Rick ross - verse 3]

Last nite I cried tears of joy

What did we do to deserve this

Not to dwell on the the past but to keep it real I gotta represent for m & teel

All the dead souls in the field

Lookin at my rolly its about that time

White man had a problem wit mine

N we suppose 2 b shy??(shy)(shy)

The revolution still applies

Prolly still on the rise

[Cee-lo - chorus]

Whhhhyyyyyyy

To all the love ones I leave behind

Bcuz they can't see me fine

N I ask when sum1 wants 2 b me y??

Not even everything can ease my mind

If you could read my mind

My god I'm scarred

I have tattoo tears of joy
