Verse 1
I paid my dues,
Dm
now I'm really on
Am
Prince to the SEA, put my city on
Left the condo for a bigger home
Dm
Am
Everything clean like my chicken bones
I work hard, I work hard for it
Dm
Am
Had to go back to the chalkboard
We was tourin' countries all foreign
Now I don't gotta open car doors
Dm
So say what's up to my haters
Am
at the club tonight
I'll be busy singing
Dm
Am
my daughter lullabies
Dm
When she sleep, I hit the
Am
booth and get super lit
Living my dreams like
I sleep in another life
Dm
Living my dreams like I sleep
Am
in another life, yeah
Dm
The tensions so thick,
Am
you could cut with a butter knife, yeah
Dm
If that's your example of artists,
Am
then what am I?
You lied, they consume it, you
Dm
say that you boomin'
That's probably why Metro
don't trust you, gosh
Verse 2
Dm
I am not surprised,
Am
I am not surprised, yeah
Had to optimize, then monopolize, yeah
We turn out the lights then
we come alive, yeah
Dm
Am
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,
Dm
Am
ain't no 9 to 5, yeah
Verse 3
Am
10 million sold, go and look at that
Dm
Ain't no middleman gonna get any of that
Am
I suck at math,
Dm
but I know how to add (1 + 1)
Am
That's a whole 'lotta money
Bought my babies and my
Dm
Am
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,
Dm
Am
top 5 on stage," no doubt
In God we trust, God we trust
Dm
They ain't came in the same way
Am
They are not with us, not with us
Came back and it's game time
This the follow- up, and now I'm up
Dm
Am
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
Dm
Put that on my momma
Am
I done this shit,
Dm
I done this shit since I was pushin' a Honda
Am
No one hit shit, no one hit shit,
platinum plaques in mi casa
And my accountant's dead
Dm
(rest in peace)
Am
Couldn't count the commas
Verse 4
Am
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,
Dm
Am
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,
Dm
ain't no 9 to 5, yeah
