[Intro]
Yeah, Shines, on the beat
This sh** crazy bruh!
Aye, aye, oh, aye!
[Hook]
Still independent ain't signed to a deal
Rent late again and I'm piled up with bills
I ain't got a mansion or house on the hill, but
I'm on top of the world yeah
I ain't getting high off the powder and pills
I'm better on the ground n***a that's how I feel
I don't got much but she down for me still
I'm on top of the world yeah
[Verse]
I ain't where I wanna be but I'm in motion
Tank been on E for about a week and I'm still rolling
Dealer plates cause they kicked me off of the insurance
Missed jury duty now I think I got a warrant
But dodging pigs ain't a factor
Shorty scared to tell her parents that she date a rapper
Cause they gonna hit me with the question:
"What's your real profession?"
And I'm just thinking to myself when I blow up
Watch this sh** get interesting like:
"5 let me hold a thou- don't be holding out
Me and him is over now let me hold ya down"
She be trying to screw me now like a root can*l
Had to tell her back that a** up like I'm Juvenile
Ohh, yeah
I used to be a delinquent
Now they hit me up "5, Whats the price for the feature?"
It's a couple hating on me probably don't got a reason
I'm on top of the world n***a I can't see ya
Ohh, yeah

[Verse 2]
I'm making hits at the top of the morning
With this pretty young thing that I got from the border
Love ain't cheap I don't know if I can afford her
But if she put up with the bucket she can ride in the foreign
You can occupy the pa**enger chair
And if the wheels fall off
Don't even trip girl I'm grabbing the spare
Believe none of what you see and only half what you hear
Cause these days you never know what's actually real
But I ain't fronting I'm honest I'm still a struggling artist
Despite the size of my pocket she f** with me regardless
She was riding for the boy back when I was car-less
So if she ask for the title I'll turn to an author yeah
Cause she was there when I was taking risks
She believed in me when everybody was atheist
Back when I ain't have a pot to take a piss
And all the radios said they couldn't play the hits
But word to DJ Hed cause we gonna make the list yeah
Hed what up!
[DJ Hed Interview Sample]
"When they fired me, I just decided I was never going to allow anybody to take away my job again, but what I did was I pledged to myself that I was going to figure it out, no matter what. For me it was a celebration of, it was a celebration of a rebirth."
