Life
I wonder, will it take me under?
I 'on't know
Imagine smoking weed in the street without cops harassing
Imagine going to court with no trial
Lifestyle, cruising blue Bahama waters
No welfare supporters, more conscious of the way we raise our daughters
Days are shorter, nights are colder
Feeling like life is over, these snakes strike like a cobra
The world's hot, my son got knocked
Evidently, it's elementary, they want us all gone eventually
Trooping outta state for a plate, knowledge
If coke was cooked without the garbage, we'd all have the top dollars
Imagine everybody flashing fashion, designer clothes
Lacing ya clique up with diamond Roles
Your people holding dough, no parole, no rubbers
Go in raw, imagine law with no undercovers
Just some thoughts for the mind
I take a glimpse into time
Watch the blimp read, "The World Is Mine"
If I ruled the world (imagine that)
I'd free all my sons (I love 'em, love 'em, baby)
Black diamonds and pearls
(Could it be, if you could be mine, we'd both shine)
If I ruled the world
(Still living for today, in these last days and times)
The way to be paradise life, relaxing
Black, Latino, and Anglo-Saxon
Armani Exchange, the Range
Cash, Lost Tribe of Shabazz, free at last
Brand-new whips to crash, then we laugh in a iller path
The villa house is for the crew, how we do
Trees for breakfast, dime sexes and Benz stretches
So many years of depression, make me vision
The better living, type of place to raise kids in
Open they eyes to the lies, history's told foul
But I'm as wise as the old owl, plus the Gold Child
Seeing things like I was controlling, clique rolling
Tricking six-digits on kicks and still holding
Trips to Paris, I'd civilize every savage
Give me one shot, I turn trife life to lavish
Political prisoners set free, stress-free
No work release, purple M3's and jet skis
Feel the wind breeze in West Indies
I'd let Coretta Scott-King mayor the cities, and reverse fiends to Willies
It sound foul, but every girl I meet'd go down-town
I'd open every cell in Attica, send 'em to Africa
If I ruled the world (imagine that)
I'd free all my sons (I love 'em, love 'em, baby)
Black diamonds and pearls
(Could it be, if you could be mine, we'd both shine)
If I ruled the world
(Still living for today, in these last days and times)
And then we'll walk right up to the sun, hand in hand
We'll walk right up to the sun, we won't land
We'll walk right up to the sun, hand in hand
We'll walk right up to the sun, we won't land (land)
You love to hear the story how the thugs live in worry
Ducked down in car seats, heat's mandatory
Running from Jake, getting chased, hunger for papes
These are the breaks, many mistakes go down outta state
Wait! I had to let it marinate, we carry weight
Trying to get laced, flip the ace, stack the safe
Millionaire plan to keep the gat with the cocked hammer
Making moves in Atlanta, back-and-forth scrambler
'Cause you could have all the chips, be poor or rich
Still, nobody want a nigga having shit
If I ruled the world and everything in it, sky's the limit
I push Q-45 Infinit
It wouldn't be no such thing as jealousies, or B Felony
Strictly living longevity to the destiny
I thought I'd never see, but reality struck
Better find out before your time's out, what the fuck?
If I ruled the world (imagine that)
I'd free all my sons (I love 'em, love 'em, baby)
Black diamonds and pearls
(Could it be, if you could be mine, we'd both shine)
If I ruled the world
(Still living for today, in these last days and times)
If I ruled the world (if I ruled, if I ruled) (imagine that)
I'd free all my sons (if I ruled, if I ruled)
(I love 'em, love 'em, baby)
Black diamonds and pearls (black diamonds, black diamonds)
(Could it be, if you could be mine, we'd both shine)
If I ruled the world
(Still livin' for today, in these last days and times)
If I ruled the world (if I ruled, if I ruled)
I'd free all my sons (black diamonds)
(I love 'em, love 'em, baby)
Black diamonds and pearls (if I ruled)
If I ruled the world
If I ruled the world
(I love 'em, love 'em, baby)
