[Chorus]
[T.I.]
I keep telling myself
Man I'm living the good life
[Pharrell]
I'm living the good life
[2X]
I'm on top of the world
I'm on top of the world
[2X]

[T.I.]
I was born into poverty raised I the sewerage
Streets always would be a part of me, it made me the truest
And even when my days were the bluest
I never ran from adversity, instead I ran to it
Fear ain't in the heart of me I learned just do it
You get courage in your fears right after you go through it
Now I come through in a Coupe on 22s
That ain't bad for a nigga who ain't even finish school
Don't get me wrong I never been a fool
I just put off graduating for a pair of tennis shoes
I used to use the beats to paint my pain
But nowadays man I can't complain
I got several automobiles and they all on thangs
Several solitaires and they all in one chain
(Ay) You should see me in the mall I'm the same
And getting brain from a couple broads on the plane (Hey)

[Chorus]

[Common]
I come from Chi-Town lost and found in the struggle
Where dudes say stay safe and stay out of trouble
Speakers muffled the law and B em's try to cuff you
Those with duffles move weight and have muscle
I dug through the dirt with a verse for the people
Open up for Daddy Kane and Easy up at the Regal
The radio rarely put their needle on my record
They ain't see how the hood and heaven were connected
Sounds projected, ain't show how effective
Lessons learned, sessions turned to life reflected
And everything I found real in life know I kept it
They say life's a teacher, you're gonna get tested
When a nigga changed they kept saying that nigga strange
They couldn't see, had my mind on bigger thangs
Ahead of my time now I caught up with the game
Making good music making paper making change

[Chorus]

[T.I.]
I put my gasoline drawers on stood in the fire
With enough heat to set the hood on fire
Man you niggaz think Suge was off the wire
You should've seen the squad before I had Messiah
When we assumed the title as the number one supplier
Felt like I was selling blow since I was in diapers
And we wished a nigga would come try us
We was cool with the killers, best friends with the lifers
Quick to up a strap if a nigga wanna deny us
Of what we considered then as a lucrative empire
But like that pimping time flash by you
Now I wonder what the judge think as he read my priors
Cuz prisons ain't full and the reefer ain't bias
Anybody tell you differents a damned liar
Gave the jail hell and shot birds at the hearse
Lived through worse and reversed the curse

[Chorus]
