While my rhyme is a bulletproof suit, so put ya' .9 away I roll doughs, I snatch souls, I get at hoes, I roll wit' a gat I stroll strap, I kick mad flows So before I go, I better be countin' snaps Comin' off strong to come to the maximum, twistin' caps And um, you couldn't explain this wit' a hypothesis I regulate and create masterpieces, blowin' yo' ass to pieces Creases in khakis suits was '86 Now, I'm saggin' some Marc Mechanics and still stack chips [Chorus: Amber Davis] Success before I die (Before I die) I better stack all my chips before I die (Before I die) You know that I'm only out here for my wealth, yeah Success before I die (Before I die) Success before I die (Before I die) I better stack all my chips before I die (Before I die) You know that I'm only out here for my wealth, yeah Success before I die (Before I die) Success before I die (Before I die) I better stack all my chips before I die (Before I die) You know that I'm only out here for my wealth, yeah Success before I die (Before I die) Success before I die (Before I die) I better stack all my chips before I die (Before I die) You know that I'm only out here for my wealth, yeah Success before I die (Before I die) Success before I die (Before I die) I better stack all my chips before I die (Before I die) You know that I'm only out here for my wealth, yeah Success before I die (Before I die)
