Trae Tha Truth - Sittin on Top of the World lyrics

[Hook - 4x] Sitting on top of the world [Trae] I really wish that I was, sitting on top of the world Cause lately I've been in my own zone, stressing so much I'm about to hurl I don't wanna lose my focus, in case you ain't noticed it's hopeless In the ghetto, cause n***as'll hold you down and never let go But I maintain, ducking and dodging the rain Wishing one day I'll get away, and be on top of my game Cause for Trae, everyday struggling is what I get to feel If I feel anything else, I swear to God it wasn't real So I mash on, and get my cash on f** being broke, everyday I get my stash on It ain't no telling, if I'ma get to see the better days I would rather be living, so mama say I better pray And forget what them n***as say, I know they be hating mine I've been stuck on bad luck, I don't think they want mine So I remain, hoping God gon put me on top of his list I'll probably never get to see it, so for now I sit and wish I was [Hook - 4x] [Trae] My mentality of being broke, done got me trying to get it But I don't rest, so everytime I touch the game I'll be the best and never less I ain't got sh** to lose, and I want the bottom to the top So everyday I give it all I got, a hundred percent and never ever stop I ain't gon quit for sh**, even though my pain is forever I lost a lot with paying dues, and tried to keep it together It's like I'm zoning everyday, and then I'm lost in a daze Since I'm addicted to reality, I'll be stuck in my ways And I can't change it if I wanted to, with what I'm going through It ain't nobody, trying to help me through That's why my attitude be out of control, with all the time they gave my dog I bet he losing it slow, but still I tell him not to fold I'm gon ride for the team, and try to make it to the top And if I never make it, least I'm still respected on the blocks I know it ain't a lot, but in the hood I'll be a legend Helping people make it through, they hard times for a blessing like I'm [Hook - 4x] [Trae] I never knew, if I would end up being po' And if folks but still I knew, that I would end up being realer than most And maybe that explains, why I haven't made it yet I can almost bet that you n***as, don't get no respect Selling your soul and playing dirty with the devil, I choose to be a rebel Never teaming up with that s**er, cause I'm on another level And it ain't too many on it, I promise I'm a loner Ever since me and my brother separated, I've been goner On the corner trying to get it, the best way I can That's why I choose to get up and get out, and be a man And it ain't no giving me respect, I'd rather take my own And ain't no running from d**h, I'd rather be toting chrome And I don't think that they wanna see me, on top of the world Cause if they did then they would fear me, when I be stopping this world From all the bullsh**, these n***as be filling it with And if I can't, then I'ma never be calling it quits I wish I was [Hook - 8x]
