Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In your love life (D Hill)
If you want the riches and the ice, yeah, yeah
Riches and the ice, yeah, yeah (no, no, no)
Riches and the ice, yeah, yeah
I don't wanna wake up
I'd rather dream, that's the way that you stay up
But money's on my mind and I gotta keep the cake up
I don't wanna break up
Tears fall from her eyes and it's messin' up her makeup
Havin' second thoughts, no, we don't have to break up
Small conversation, have sex, then we make up
I don't wanna break up, no, no, no
I don't wanna break up, no, no
I don't wanna break up, no, no
I don't wanna break up, no, no
I don't wanna break up
Yeah, I brought sand to the beach to make it better, yeah
I got space boots on me, those Margielas, yeah
Bought some ice for you, keep it real with you, I fake death
Clever whenever we show out every time we go down
Drippin' and drawin', while we spill, they be droolin'
Pick it up by the pick, yeah, photogenic on the wrist, yeah
Purple hearts, make war sex, park the car, have car sex
Diamond cross, probably have sex in the afterlife, my religion
Tryna make better decisions, tryna be more consistent, yeah
I'm going through Hell just to get to you again
I make millions by myself, but I need you to win
Money couldn't buy real love, real friends
I don't wanna break up
I just wanna go and get my cake up, yeah (yeah)
Come through and stay up (stay up)
We can talk all night and make love, yeah
I don't wanna see you cry
That's like me settin' my heart on fire (on fire)
Fantasizin' about you in my arms
Tellin' stories 'til you know I'm not a liar
I don't wanna wake up
I'd rather dream, that's the way that you stay up
I don't wanna break up
But money's on my mind and I gotta keep the cake up
I don't wanna break up
Tears fall from her eyes and it's messin' up her makeup
Havin' second thoughts, no, we don't have to break up
Small conversation, have sex, then we make make up
I don't wanna break up
Sometimes you gotta take a sacrifice
In your love life if you want the riches and the ice, yeah, yeah
(Riches and the ice, yeah, yeah)
Gotta listen to your own advice, yeah, yeah
See, there's love still ahead, you wait, higher than kites (yeah)
Tip-toeing on a tower of temptation, I ain't scared of heights
And if you fall in love once, you can fall in love twice
I put this girl on ten jets, she used to be scared of flights, alright
Personality be making up for my height
Met her in New York, she said she from The Heights, alright
She take her time, she ride all night
Made that girl come over, pedal on me like a bike (bike)
Asian bitch go sucky-sucky, Spanish bitch, she call me papi
On vacay, my bitch in Maui, this ain't even my bitch though
I done Bogarted another nigga, this is like a kid though
I done prove myself so many times, like what these hits for?
She ain't know I was a G, she keep asking, "What that stick for?"
She thought I was making all this money because I was so popular
Rockstar, from the same planet as a pop star
She remind of my account because when I see her, I get rock hard
Save her (la, la, la, la)
Don't save her (la, la, la, la)
That's what they said
Don't save her (la, la, la, la)
Risked it all, now we gotta break up (yeah)
Get the racks, come back, now we make up (yeah)
I don't wanna wake up
I'd rather dream, that's the way that you stay up
I don't wanna break up
But money's on my mind and I gotta keep the cake up
I don't wanna break up
Tears fall from her eyes and it's messin' up her makeup
Havin' second thoughts, no, we don't have to break up
Small conversation, have sex, then we make up
I don't wanna break up, no, no
I don't wanna break up, no, no
I don't wanna break up
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
