Lyrics

I paid my dues, now I'm really on
 Prince to the SEA, put my city on
 Left the condo for a bigger home
 Everything clean like my chicken bones
 I work hard, I work hard for it
 Had to go back to the chalkboard
 We was tourin' countries all foreign
 Now I don't gotta open car doors
 So say what's up to my haters at the club tonight
 I'll be busy singing my daughter lullabies
 When she sleep, I hit the booth and get super lit
 Living my dreams like I sleep in another life
 Living my dreams like I sleep in another life, yeah
 The tensions so thick, you could cut with a butter knife, yeah
 If that's your example of artists, then what am I?
 You lied, they consume it, you say that you boomin'
 That's probably why Metro don't trust you, gosh
 I am not surprised, I am not surprised, yeah
 Had to optimize, then monopolize, yeah
 We turn out the lights then we come alive, yeah
 All these dollar signs, ain't no 9 to 5, yeah
 I am not surprised, I am not surprised, yeah
 Had to optimize, then monopolize, yeah
 We turn out the lights then we come alive, yeah
 All these dollar signs, ain't no 9 to 5, yeah
 10 million sold, go and look at that
 Ain't no middleman gonna get any of that
 I suck at math, but I know how to add (1 + 1)
 That's a whole 'lotta money
 Bought my babies and my mama a pad
 Wow, do a spin move on stage looking like the white James Brown
 There's a whole lotta people in this arena, you know it sold out
 Took my daughter on the road and she pointing' at me from the crowd
 Saying, "That's my daddy, top 5 on stage," no doubt
 In God we trust, God we trust
 They ain't came in the same way
 They are not with us, not with us
 Came back and it's game time
 This the follow-up, and now I'm up
 I decided that was not enough
 Dopps and Budo with that final touch
 Competition, go and line 'em up
 I run this shit, I run this shit
 Put that on my momma
 I done this shit, I done this shit since I was pushin' a Honda
 No one hit shit, no one hit shit, platinum plaques in mi casa
 And my accountant's dead (rest in peace)
 Couldn't count the commas
 I am not surprised, I am not surprised, yeah
 Had to optimize, then monopolize, yeah
 We turn out the lights then we come alive, yeah
 All these dollar signs, ain't no 9 to 5, yeah
 I am not surprised, I am not surprised, yeah
 Had to optimize, then monopolize, yeah
 We turn out the lights then we come alive, yeah
 All these dollar signs, ain't no 9 to 5, yeah
