Miya hee, miya ho, miya hu, miya ha-ha (Ay) This a special what's happenin' to all my All my soldiers over there in Iraq E'rybody right here What you need to do is be thankful for the life you got You know what I'm sayin'? Stop lookin' at what you ain't got Start bein' thankful for what you do got Let's give it to 'em baby girl, hey
You're gonna be, a shinin' star In fancy clothes, and fancy cars And then you'll see, you're gonna go far 'Cause everyone knows, just who ya are-are
So live your life (eh-eh-eh) You steady chasin' that paper Just live your life (oh, eh-eh-eh) Ain't got no time for no haters Just live your life (eh-eh-eh) No tellin' where it'll take ya Just live your life (oh, eh-eh-eh) 'Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just livin' my life (ayy) my life (oh) My life (ayy) my life (oh) Just livin' my life (ayy) my life (oh) My life (ayy) my life (oh) just livin' my life
Hey, never mind what haters say, ignore 'em 'til they fade away Amazing they ungrateful after all the game I gave away Safe to say I paved the way for you cats to get paid today You'd still be wastin' days away now had I never saved the day
Consider them my protégé, homage I think they should pay Instead of bein' gracious, they violate in a major way I never been a hater, still, I love 'em in a crazy way Some say they sold the yay' you know they couldn't get work on Labor Day
It ain't that black and white, it has an area the shade of gray I'm Westside anyway, even if I left today and stayed away Some move away to make a way, not move away 'cause they afraid I brought back to the hood, and all you ever did was take away
I pray for patience but they make me wanna melt they face away Like I once made 'em spray, now I could make 'em put the K's away Been thuggin' all my life, can't say I don't deserve to take a break You'd rather see me catch a case and watch my future fade away
You're gonna be, a shinin' star In fancy clothes, and fancy car-ars And then you'll see, you're gonna go far 'Cause everyone knows, just who ya are-are
So live your life (eh-eh-eh) You steady chasin' that paper Just live your life (oh, eh-eh-eh) Ain't got no time for no haters Just live your life (eh-eh-eh) No tellin' where it'll take ya Just live your life (oh, eh-eh-eh) 'Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just livin' my life (ayy) my life (oh) My life (ayy) my life (oh) Just livin' my life (ayy) my life (oh) My life (ayy) my life (oh) just livin' my life
I'm the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished with The spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid Allergic to the counterfeit, impartial to the politics Articulate, but still I'll grab a nigga by the collar quick
Whoever havin' problems with their record sales just holler Tip If that don't work and all else fails then turn around and follow Tip I got love for the game, but ay I'm not in love with all of it Could do without the fame, and rappers nowadays are comedy
The hootin' and the hollerin', back and forth with the arguin' Where you from, who you know, what you make and what kind of car you in Seems as though you lost sight of what's important when depositin' Them checks into your bank account, and you up out of poverty
Your values is a disarray, prioritizin' horribly Unhappy with the riches 'cause you're piss poor morally Ignorin' all prior advice and forewarnin' And we mighty full of ourselves all of a sudden, aren't we?
You're gonna be, a shinin' star In fancy clothes, and fancy cars And then you'll see, you're gonna go far 'Cause everyone knows, just who ya are-are
So live your life (eh-eh-eh) You steady chasin' that paper Just live your life (oh, eh-eh-eh) Ain't got no time for no haters Just live your life (eh-eh-eh) No tellin' where it'll take ya Just live your life (oh, eh-eh-eh) 'Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just livin' my life (ayy) my life (oh) My life (ayy) my life (oh) Just livin' my life (ayy) my life (oh) My life (ayy) my life (oh) just livin' my life
Got everybody watchin' what I do, come walk in my shoes And see the way I'm livin' if you really want to Got my mind on my money And I'm not goin' away
So keep on gettin' your paper, and keep on climbin' Look in the mirror, and keep on shinin' (shinin') Until the game ends, 'til the clock stop We gon' post up on the top spot
Livin' the life, the life In the Windmill City got my whole team with me The life, my life I do it how I wanna do I'm livin' my life, my life I will never lose I'm livin' my life, my life And I'll never stop it
