Brandy f/ Mase - Top Of The World
Lyrics:
[Mase]
Brandy. Darkchild. Mase kid. Harlem on the rise!
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
I went from ??????? to many mansions,
To girls in Aruba doing belly dancing.
I spent half on my advance on jars from ?????
to make it through my circumstances.
But you know I'm wiser now.
I move like the Kaiser now.
I gotta butta soft lover just to hide my pound.
I got a house in the valley. Come and find me now.
I got enough dough to buy the town.
So I might give a Six to my chick, a Benz to my mom,
a crib so big it look like the ??????.
I'll give her a couch just to spill Henny on.
??????? and Bennetton. Come on!
[Brandy]
Some people say that I am not the same girl
They say I think that I am in my own world
What makes them think that I have changed
A little dough cannot erase my problems
Me like you I have to try to solve them
Yes everything is quite the same
(Chorus):
I'm just trying to be me
Doing what I got to do
Some people think that I'm
Just sittin' on top of the world
I'm just trying to be me
Proving what I've got to prove
Some people think that I'm
Just sittin' on top of the world
Sittin' on top of the world, top of the world,
top of the world, top of the world.
(Repeat last two lines again)
I wonder why it's often said
That my life's a fairy tale and
Everything is so right
I wish that you could know the truth
My life is real, so please don't get it twisted
Problems the same and got to be dealt with
These are the things I wish you knew
Always in someone's eye, so many questions why
How is it to be down with me, with me
Afraid to express myself always me and someone else
I need to be free but it's not that easy
(Repeat Chorus)
Don't understand why people
Think I don't have friends
Who knew me back when
This was my dream nothing has changed
I still do the same things
[Mase]
Yo, you can cut the talk short if it ain't about cake.
I ain't sittin' on top. I want a house on the lake.
I'm that snotty nose cat with a Nubian.
If you mess with Brandy, then I've got to bruise your chin.
I'll be with Puff and the girls'll be like, "Who's his friend?"
If I hit the chick once, she'd probably move me in.
So, you got to tell me right now. Either your with the cats the
make the hits, or the one's who see the chips.
[Brandy]
Slow down, Mase, you're killin' 'em!
[Mase]
But don't stop it.
What's the use of buying the ????,
if I'm gonna have to chop it.
I used to mess with the lady, 'til I learned her logic.
She only mess with Mase as long as money ain't no object.
If it ain't Cris, he won't pop it.
If it ain't platinum with ice, he won't rock it.
If it don't cost 60, he don't drop it.
If it don't come with TVs, he don't cop it.
You need to stop it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What, what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What, what, what?
(Brandy repeats chorus to end of the song)
[Mase (over chorus)]
Brandy on top of the world, uhh!
Darkchild on top of the world.
Mase B. on top of the world, what?
Harlem World on top of the world.
Brandy on top of the world.
Darkchild on top of the world.
M-A-dollar sign-E all over the world.
Brandy all over the world.
...all over the world
...all over the world
...all over the world
Yeah, yeah, yeah! What, what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah! What, what, what?
