Trae Tha Truth - Sittin on Top of the World lyrics
[Trae Tha Truth - Sittin on Top of the World lyrics]
Sitting on top of the world
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 niggas'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
Fuck 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 niggas 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
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 shit 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 shit
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
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 niggas
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 sucker
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 death
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 bullshit
These niggas be filling it with
And if I can't
Then I'ma never be calling it
Quit's I wish I was
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 niggas'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
