Trev Rich - 24 Lyrics
[Verse 1]If I could rule the world, for only a dayI promise all my nigga's be paidAnd I promise all my fam'd be paidAnd I'd make all you groupie *****es get savedLove me or hate me it wouldn't matter, you all would know TrevorAnd I'd erase all of that two-term bullshitAnd Barack would run the US foreverEven ask him to smoke one, get high and give two shitsEven though I hate politicsHe gave me hope and I acknowledge itI ain't naive, I know he really don't run shitAnd if you disagree then I'd be forced to give yo' ass a scholarshipI'd release the cure for cancer and the cure for AIDSCreate a cure for ignorance and make you ride the waveAnd make niggas safe from cause of those *****ing jails (?)And Instagram your degree before your *****ing wavesAnd I ain't fronting like I graduated collegeBut bein' blessed with the knowledge that I've acquiredI'll only use to inspireDon't wanna sound like I'm preaching to the choirBut be a king, nigga, build a empireAnd be a queen, baby, build your MufasaThen raise your castle and it'll turn into ContraAnd I remove all of my chains, niggas threaten these (?)Don't mind me, I'm just speaking hypothetically[Hook]If I ruled the worldOnly a day, I'm talking 24 hoursYou get all of the money, the respect and the powerAre we gon' claim whats rightfully ours?If I ruled the worldI'm talking 24 hours, for only a dayI promise all my niggas be straightI mean I promise all my fam'd be straight[Verse 2]If I could rule the world, for only a dayI'd shoot every crooked cop in the faceCuz young niggas doing triple-life sentencesFor some *****ing images that these bastards createAnd honestly I think they all plottingBut we be hoodied up for Treyvon Martin and keep them ARs poppin'And we wouldn't have to post no bailWe would celebrate life, get drunk and even load more shellsI'd try to teach hood niggas that there's more to lifeThan that 20-block radius they know so wellI'd teach 'em how to flyI'd teach young girls how to love with their hearts and their mindsAnd not whats between their thighsI'd try to educate the massesCuz life is way more than they teach you in them classesAnd if you scared to die then you scared to tryYou're gonna die, it's inevitable my nigga, live your lifeCuz young niggas getting killed over their prideDont make a baby momma homie, make a wifeAnd make my people come together not divideCuz shade doesn't *****ing matter, dog, co-light (?)I'd even tell Sally May to go and ***** herselfAnd give your badass kids that mo'*****ing beltI'd make my son so allergic to a lazy hoAnd I'd take that bullshit off the radio[Hook 2]If I ruled the worldI'm talking only a day, I'm talking 24 hoursYou get all of the money, the respect and the powerAre we gon' claim whats rightfully ours?If I ruled the worldBut I don't, I rule my world[Verse 3]See my world is different to yoursToo many deja-vus and I've-been-here-beforesBut watching yourself grow is a sight to seeAnd with a past like mine you wouldn't wanna try new thingsPut what I want you to know on the tableYou look past it cos every *****ing thing I try to hide you seeThe sex must be amazingNot only going raw but basing both of our futures off an IUDHoping we fall in that 99 percentileEither way I wouldn't change nothing about usAnticipating the day you see your kids smileAnd pray custody battles will never be the outcomeI've been there twiceAnd with no regrets shorty, guess thats lifeThe scorned woman is a woman that I never knew aboutBut idle threats and child support I could do withoutYa see my daughters momSee she an act for realIf I can't love her then I can't see my kidI tried to get it through her *****ing head this ain't a package dealAnd if she think I'mma fall then she can eat a dickI'm busy living, she spending time writing meI'm trying to grasp life in its entiretyNot even knowing that all of this shit is tiringWhile I'm busy trying to figure out who hiringI just wanna give my kids the life I never hadAnd honestly I know that I could be a better dadBut knowing, and not trying thats a deadbeatKnowing and doing something see that's where Trevor atI'm just waiting on my timePraying I reach that before I reach my primeRight now all I can do is live my lifeI know my world ain't perfect, but its mineIf I ruled the world...
