Did You Ever Think [remix]
R. Kelly · Other Songs - R. Kelly
we gota make this money
watch out when we come for you
take all of y'all hunnies
first of the month and rent is due
gotta get this paper
come for us, we'll wait for you
a million men can't take us
chorus
did you ever think that you would be this rich
did you ever think that you would have these hits
did you ever think that you would be a don
have a crib with a 50 acre lawn
did you ever think that you would be this paid
when the time when you're ass was real afraid
did you ever think that you would sell out tours
have a show with 50 million viewers
(R.Kelly)
I used to think about
how I was gonna make it
struggling day to day
just tryin to make this paper
hoping the day will come
when things will go my way
but now I'm living lavish
and all I do is hear them say...
chorus
(Nas) Now, ey yo (over last line of chorus)
now who know's poverty like Robert and me
did you ever think you would be dancing and vibing with me
did you ever think you would puch a ferrari blasting a Nas cd
with 5 tv's and dvd's c'mon ride with me
any man can fly like me
honey you heard about the style I got
we from the wildest blocks, where police made arrests
carried heats, wear vests, we ghetto
never thought we'd ever reach this level
people behind metal the streets could've had us
but now we live lavish, our prints be the baddest
plus now my maid changes sheets on the matress
it's deep cuz I never thought I'd reach this status
walk around and grown women stop and look
they recognize me, no longer hide they pocket book
HATE ME NOW! cuz I ain't gonna stop you're stuck
the remix with R.Kelly please rock the hook
c'mon
chorus
ever think, you ever know (4x)
chorus
No matter what y'all sayin dudes
we gota make this money
watch out when we come for you
take all of y'all hunnies
first of the month and rent is due
gotta get this paper
come for us, we'll wait for you
a million men can't take us
chorus (2x)
(Nas)
I jus wanna thank god
for making nas the don
and r.kelly the don
yea
