[Intro: Ludacris] |
|
Over a decade later |
|
Let's toast to the good life |
|
We still living the hood life |
|
Welcome to my world Ludaversal |
|
[Verse 1: Ludacris] |
|
Listen |
|
I think I got the best job in the world |
|
Cuz I ain't gotta take the piss test |
|
Michael sending me Jordans every 1st of the month |
|
Said his kids love me, ain't paid for a pair of kicks since |
|
Why is it that when 'em *****s gettin' rich |
|
The whole world just wanna get you some free *******t? (Hahah) |
|
Ain't that 'bout a ******* |
|
Especially when they told me I'll never do *******t, or be *******t |
|
I made it and never took you for granted |
|
Took off and I never landed, supply whatever demanded and no one's ever handed it to me |
|
I kicked it off with me and my special team and shot the [?] to me |
|
Touchdown on my old turf, money and ******* sucking me in my microphone vest |
|
And know I'm not surprised that my old [?] taking *****s to school, go do your homework |
|
[Hook: Ludacris] |
|
Yeah, and I been going around in circles |
|
Like everyday is a rehearsal |
|
Is my life your entertainment? |
|
This has been my world, Ludaversal |
|
This has been my world, Ludaversal |
|
This has been my world, Ludaversal |
|
My life your entertainment |
|
This has been my world, Ludaversal |
|
[Verse 2: Ludacris] |
|
Almost everyday I'm waking up in another city |
|
Another country, a different climate and a time zone |
|
Jet lag but I'm out of the bed fast for bad foreign ******* that I'm eager to lay my eyes on |
|
So I opened up the blinds to the sky on |
|
Wish that I could talk to God on my iPhone |
|
I thank Him for all of his generosity |
|
And for satisfying most of my curiosity |
|
Fans asking me what it's like to be me |
|
I always tell 'em it's more good than bad |
|
They say I want what you got |
|
I tell 'em you'll never have *******t if you don't appreciate what you have |
|
So I have learned to appreciate all the simple things |
|
Like some good head and a fine wine |
|
We all going through life searching for answers |
|
And I been all around the world trynna find mine |
|
[Hook] |
|
[Verse 3: Ludacris] |
|
Seems like everyday is a holiday |
|
Celebratory popping bottles and model days |
|
Stereotypical rap *******t personified |
|
From 8 albums committin' lyrical homicide |
|
These airports like international mazes |
|
Now my passport needs additional pages |
|
Then I'm staring out at another horizon |
|
Staying fly even in the no fly zone |
|
Bodies on board but my mind's gone |
|
Ain't no better feeling than when I fly home |
|
Staring out the window of the plane in the rains even the clouds need a shoulder to cry on |
|
I'm crying cuz I'm living out my dreams |
|
But this life is not easy as it seems |
|
It's sorta similar to a crack game |
|
Ain't no slowing down when you living in the fast lane |
|
[Hook: Ludacris] |
|
[Big Rube] |
|
Life is a gift |
|
And we have a responsibility to live it |
|
From the first breath to the last |
|
Our future is built on the foundation of our past |
|
Experience is a professor, and its test's at a highest pressure |
|
While we can't afford to crack |
|
We must bear not to break |
|
Like a reed in the wind we go with the flow |
|
While still reaching for the light |
|
Avoid useless conflict while never running from the fight |
|
The struggle that forever brought me to just beneath the surface |
|
I'm dedicating to the service of self and to my people |
|
And to never feeding the beast of unnecessary evil |
|
We say the motion of [?] |
|
Take the action to display our character |
|
From the first second that we start to feast until the day that we break this barrier |
|
So disparaging is a civilized savage only strive to become average |
|
I'm not happier as a maverick |
|
A cowboy that uses his cabbage to get more green than most millions done seen |
|
The good kind and never the bad ******* |
|
The best that life has to give are the blessings of this life that we live |
|
And everyday I'm [?] not lose my way I've had to learn |
|
Just remember in any existence it's not the destination but the journey |
|
Live your life |
|
Just Blaze! |
