Castle Made Of Sand

(Album: The High Life - 2009)

Yeah
Let me crack open my High Life real quick (Big Jerm)
Product placement, ha ha
Uh, uh, let's go

Let's take it to the top now, to the top now, baby
I'ma take my time
Through rain, sleet, snow, I'ma keep getting dough
You can find me on my grind
So put your motherfucking hands in the sky
And if you sitting down, please stand (Uh-huh)
'Cause I'm on the rise and I reside in this castle made of sand (Look, uh)

Let me get a hand clap, I'ma make an entrance (What?)
Giving y'all the lecture, then I'm taking questions
My soul a sword, write a sentence, make a weapon
Swimming in the deep end, you bitches taking lessons (ha ha)
Then I hear you hating on the boy
Well, I ain't offended (Nah)
'Cause I'm the captain of the team and y'all play the benches (Uh-huh)
Still breaking it down, to rolling it up
Put an eighty in the blunt, then I'm smoking a Dutch
But talk hoes, know I stay with a few
But they replace like the lace in my shoe
So tell me, what a player to do
When being real don't appeal to the player in you (Uh-huh)
I've seen some whack cats fast track to the fame
To me, it sound like some clowns rapping the same
And we, we all living for the same thing (Same thing)
Just to make it to the top and remain king (What?)

Let's take it to the top now, to the top now, baby
I'ma take my time
Through rain, sleet, snow, I'ma keep getting dough
You can find me on my grind (Find me on my grind)
So put your muthafucking hands in the sky (Hands in the sky)
And if you sitting down, please stand (Sitting down, please stand)
'Cause I'm on the rise and I reside in this castle made of sand (One time, look, uh)

And you can't name a single younging with a flow like mine
Got bars like soap and I glow like shine
If you think that I'm whack, you might change your mind
'Cause I got them punchlines that stain like wine (Ha)
Let me take my time, collect my thoughts
Keep it fresh like shoes when they're kept in the box (Uh-huh)
Connect all the dots, I'm fresh, so clean
Stay pinching myself 'cause I'm living in a dream (Living in a dream)
Believe, I ain't never gonna stop
Find a new spot, then I set up my shop (My shop)
When I drop, your wifey gon' cop that (Cop that)
And haters getting shaken out their jockstraps (ha ha)
Some say I'm bringing hip-hop back
While others say I'm all up on that pop-rap (Pop-rap)
Team captain, control the game
Going hard 'til every single person knows my name

Let's take it to the top now, to the top now, baby (What?)
I'ma take my time
Through rain, sleet, snow, I'ma keep getting dough
You can find me on my grind (Ha)
So put your motherfucking hands in the sky (Your hands in the sky)
And if you sitting down, please stand (Down, please stand)
'Cause I'm on the rise and I reside in this castle made of sand (What? What?)

To the top now, to the top now, baby
Yeah
