Exile - Pearly Gates lyrics

[Verse 1: Asher Roth] Yo they thought I made a million dollars off I Love College Got a model for a bride and then retire to Bahamas I probably should've, my goodness, no idea what I have put up with Bunch of lame excuses from the suits up in the music biz Listen to what Q-Tip said, "game it be the shadiest" Keepers at the gate, what it take for you to play my sh**? I've been super patient, watching dudes get in my lane But lets be honest for a second, we all know we're not the same And I know just what you think, this wonder is one hit It's a product or a baraka I promise it's not it No verse that I ain't rip With words that you can't script We all know who did it first, it just hurts you to admit I've been sh**ted on, spit up on, dissed and forgotten Rick Ross can be a cop, Drake started from the bottom No offense, I don't want to start a problem but come on All I ever did was tell you I was champ in beer pong I don't want to live forever but sure hope it lasts long Never underestimate the power of a rap song Never following a fad, I create a platform Have a son and leave him something, hopeful he can pa** on like [Hook 3x] We're here to stay and never ever going away, right? [Verse 2] Keep my foot up on the gas, now I'm never going back off Now they're saying, "Ash, yo that mother f**ers back dog." Sure, had it in my palm but I had to let it go Some may say I'm wrong, but it's the only way I could grow Most don't understand this entire thing is out control No matter how it's going down, always have to let them know Kids eat your vegetables, stretch, wear your SPF Give 110% work until it's nothing left I refuse, but I confess Wanted me to keep them dumb Get them stoned, get them drunk I'm supposed to let them dunk? Nah f** that, man I'm jumping up to stuff that Even if that means I'm getting stuck with just a bus pa** Bucks keep the money, I love the feeling of hungry 101 and running from the city it's always sunny I'm cunning and funny, something you can never take from me I know you feel it coming, mummy didn't raise a dummy Love me hate me call me crazy no matter what they rate me Or how serious they take me, what the labels try to make me Man I know that I'm amazing, I'll prove it just you wait And I'll never have a problem when I reach the pearly gates like [Hook]
