all i got is a dollar and a dream
you see i've tried a 9 to 5
i can get us out the hood and have us livin good
but i aint leavin here if you ain't wit me
cause girl a suit wit a smile that don't fit me
taking a bus for some miles is gon kill me
i'm tryin' to turn it around
start this thing from the ground
and as long as you're down i know
looking at you day after day
just gotta make it just gotta make it
just to see that smile upon your face i know i
just gotta make it i just gotta make it
everything i do i do for you and we
just gotta make it just gotta make it
to the top of the world me and my girl we
just gotta make it just gotta make it
one day soon you gone walk outside
and i'm gone give ya the keys and tell ya 'go shoppin'
(and buy everything you want
make sure you get some sh** for me)
then i can get us out the hood and have us livin good
but first i gotta know that you gonna roll
cause girl a suit wit a smile that don't fit me
taking a bus for some miles is gon kill me
i'm tryin' to turn it around
start this thing from the ground
and as long i kno you're gon be down
looking at you day after day i know i
just gotta make it i just gotta make it
just to see that smile upon your face i know i
just gotta make it i just gotta make it
everything i do i do for you then we
just gotta make it just gotta make it
to the top of the world me and my girl we
just gotta make it just gotta make it
even if i gotta go and cop a thing
get up early an go standing on the block
even if i have to sit wit the fellaz
at the round table and come up on a plot
i'm telling you the truth on the daily
there's nothing i won't do for you baby
having big dreams that we ridin` in the bently contenental
while me copping you a cute lil mercedes
and i know i got the block hot
but until i make happin for you baby i will not stop
i will drap you with diamonds and furs
visions of your hurr blowin` in the wind from my drop top
the homie trey songz trippin`
all day long get me high too
makin` that money for the family
come and take a lil cruise with a jeep
threw the chi-town streets cause you feelin me up on the inspiration whenever i'm
looking at you day after day i know i
just to see that smile upon your face i know i
just gotta make it i just gotta make it
everything i do i do for you then we
to the top of the world me and my girl we
just gotta make it just gotta make it
