Good Life (Live from VH1 Storytellers)

Lyrics

When I made Good Life I was very rich Already But if I think back to when I was making the College Dropout, thinking was this what I expected? I mean, I didn't expect the losses and you expect everything to work out well But I expected real life And then I suffered the worst pains to help me to grow So those experiences, I never ask to take them away from me Because they're all in God's plan and help make me the man I am today And help make me more of a soldier and a vessel Because if I hadn't suffered those losses, I might be scared or too scared to fight the war on traditional thinking I'm about to go crazy I'm about to go crazy We boutta go crazy Go crazy [Intro] Better than the life I lived When I thought that I was gonna go crazy And now my grandmomma Ain't the only girl callin me "baby" And if you feelin me now Then put yo' hands up in the sky, let me hear you say Heyy, heyy, like we always do at this time [Hook] I go for mine, I gots to shine Now throw yo' hands up in the sky I, gotta go for mine, I gots to shine Now throw yo' hands up in the sky Imma get on the TV momma and I'mma Yo, I'mma put shit down (Ayy) ayyy (ayy) ayyy (Ayy) ayyy (ayy) [I'm good] [Verse 1] Welcome to the good life, where homies who sell D Won't even get pulled over in they new V The good life, let's go on a living spree Man, they say the best things in life are free The good life, it feel like Atlanta It feel like L.A. it feel like Miami It feel like N.Y. summertime Chi Ahhhhh! Now throw yo' hands up in the sky So I roll through good Y'all pop the trunk,I pop the hood - Ferrari And she got the goods And she got that ass, I got to look - sorry! [Bridge] Yo it's gots to be cause I'm seasoned Haters give me them salty looks - Lawry's 50 told me go 'head, switch the style up And if they hate then let 'em hate, watch the money pile up [Hook] [Verse 2: Kanye West] Welcome to the good life! Where we like the girls who ain't on TV Cause they got mo' (ass than the models) The good life, so keep it comin' with the bottles Cause she feel booze like she bombed at Apollo The good life, it feel like Philly It feel like D.C. it feel like D.C It feel like V.A. or the Bay or Yay Ayy! Homey tell me what's good Why I only got a problem when you in the hood? Like I'm new in the hood The only thing I wish, I wish a nigga would He probably think he could But, but, I don't think he should 50 told me, go 'head, switch the style up And if they hate then let 'em hate and watch the money pile up [Hook] [Verse 3] Have you ever popped champagne on a plane, while gettin some brain Whipped it out, she said "I never seen Snakes on a Plane" Whether you broke or rich you gotta get this Havin money's not everything not havin it is I was splurgin on Tryst, but when I get my card back Activated, I'm back to Vegas I always had a passion for flashin Befo' I had it, I closed my eyes and imagined The good life Everybody wants the good life Welcome to the good life Let me hear you say: Heyy, heyy, ooooh I'm GOOD! Better than the life I lived When I though that I was gonna go crazy [Hook x3]
