Light Up

Uh, I've been up for four days, gettin' money both ways

Dirty and clean, I could use a glass of cold Spades

Rolexes, chauffers and low fades

I keep thinkin', how young can you die from old age?

They always tell me: "Nobody's workin' as hard as you"

And even though I laugh it off, man, it's probably true

'Cause while all of my closest friends out partyin'

I'm just here makin' all the music that they party to

But party on, party on all night, nigga

I got these new rappers nervous: prom night, nigga

I grow tired of these fuckin' grown man liars

Storytellers, they ain't even need a campfire

Uh, but I just want to tell the truth

Before one of these haters load a couple shells and shoot

The shit feel like when Fredro Starr

Was in Sunset Park stuntin' hard in his yellow goose - yeah!

And I'm a motherfuckin' missed target

But a target nonetheless, and I just started

Was that directed at moi? Can't be

They must be talkin' to themselves, Hov: hands free

Yeah, and I'm just fillin' up this daily planner

Gettin' busy 'cause I'm a star: no spangled banner

Jealous dudes get to talkin' in they music

And I just say I wrote it for your girlfriends: Kelsey Grammer

Yeah, that's what life becomes when you're doin' you

Welcome to Hollywood, don't let this town ruin you

And if you pillow-talkin' with the women that are screwin' you

Just know that she gon' tell another nigga

When she through with you

Don't get impatient when it takes too long

Drink it all, even when it tastes too strong

Yeah, I got to feel alive, even if it kills me

Promise to always give you me, the real me

Who would've thought I'd be caught in this life?

Let's celebrate with a toast and get lost in tonight

And make it all light up

(Ay Guru tell, tell homegirl to open that Ace right there...)

Wait until the sun goes down

We gon' make this bitch light up

Even when the sun goes down I'ma make it go

Oww, hoes turn they heads like owls

I'm the man of the hour

Triple entendre, don't even ask me how

Con Edison flow, I'm connected to a higher power

Bright lights'll make your whole city light up

A trillion-watt light bulb when I'm in the night club

I just landed in that G450

Caught the Mayweather fight 'cause the satellite was crispy, uhh

Y'all can miss me with the money talk

The smart money's on Hov', fuck what the dummies talk, uhh

I don't do too much bloggin'

I just run the town, I don't do too much joggin'

Mm, I ain't got a scar yet

'Cause you fuckin' around with me and my dogs is far-fetched

Drake, here's how they gon' come at you

With silly rap feuds, tryin' to distract you

In disguise, in the form of a favor

The Barzini meeting, watch for the traitors, uhh

I done seen it all, done it all

That's why none of these dum-dums could done him off

The summer's ours, the winter too

Top down in the winter, that's what winners do

And to these niggas I'm like Windows 7

You let them tell it, they swear that they invented you

And since no good deed go unpunished

I'm not as cool with niggas as I once was

I once was cool as the Fonz was

But these bright lights turned me to a monster

Sorry, mama, I promised it wouldn't change me

But I would have went insane had I remained the same me

Fuck niggas! Bitches, too!

All I got is this money — this'll do

Who would've thought I'd be caught in this life?

Let's celebrate with a toast and get lost in tonight

And make it all light up

Wait until the sun goes down

We gon' make this bitch light up

Even when the sun goes down I'ma make it go
