And sleepin' in a villa
N.C.
Sippin' from a Grammy and walkin' in the buildin'
N.C.
Diamond in the ceilin', marble on the floors
N.C.
Beach inside the window, peekin' out the window
N.C.
Baby in the pool, godfather goals
N.C.
Only Lord knows, I've been goin' hammer

Dodgin' paparazzi, freakin' through the cameras

N.C.
You ain't rich enough to hit the lot and skate
N.C.
Tell me when destruction gonna be my fate
N.C.
Gonna be your fate, gonna be our faith

Peace to the world, let it rotate
N.C.
Sex, money, murder—our DNA
