Good Life
JB Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I walk in the door, you know what's on my mind
When I raise up these glasses, know it's on my dime
You're coming with me, you know you're in my ride
Say hello to the good life

When I walk in the door, you know what's on my mind
When I raise up these glasses, know it's on my dime
You're coming with me, you know you're in my ride
Say hello to the good life

Baby knows I'm hustling 'cause I ain't even struggling
The difference shifts from juggling to keep my pockets doubling
The currency I'm trucking in, this good life got me stunting it
A different tax bracket for the macks that be wondering

What else this homie rolling in, damn, he checking dividends
That music got him cashing in, I love my life I'm living, man
Sorry I'm not into fumbling or crumbling under pressure
But I'm going to stay on my grind like a player to a professor, yeah

We do what we gotta do true to make it to drastic measures
Now these suckers is trying to measure up to what we slapped together
I'm going to remain pushing hard till my name is on a black car
Pushing the G for internationally, flying under the stars

Bars and hooks is what I took, now my life is off the hook
'Cause my song's still hit like a Tyson's right hook
Then the haters are easily shook and took like halfway crooks
Who are about to open up four new books when I fast Z. Rokk

When I walk in the door, you know what's on my mind
When I raise up these glasses, know it's on my dime
You're coming with me, you know you're on my ride
Say hello to the good life

When I walk in the door, you know what's on my mind
When I raise up these glasses, know it's on my dime
You're coming with me, you know you're on my ride
Say hello to the good life

A fresh new release, yeah, back to the streets
You'll be stuck like a O.D. for the whole world to see
New house, new beats, new whip, crome feet
New crime, new product, new heat for the beef

We gonna boss up on the beat, bro, yo come and get your piece
All my family go to eat every time I eat a beat
This is what I work for, push so hard to get
And if I'm living the good life, better believe it's with my clique

And in this world of conflict you can have the good life
Don't worry about those shitty individuals at night
Backstabbers and grabbers try to pull you down
Just understand this is family loyalty and it will lift you off the ground

We be around when nobody else is there fully prepared for warfare
Oh yeah, we be standing right there, right there
The good life is us, ashes to ashes, dust to dust
They'll never break us down, "In God We Trust"

I went from hood living to good living once I changed my vision
I went from hood living to good living once I changed my vision
I went from hood living to good living once I changed my vision
I went from hood living to good living once I changed my vision

I went from hood living to good living once I changed my face
I went from hood living to good living once I changed my face
I went from hood living to good living once I changed my face
I went from hood living to good living once I changed my face

When I walk in the door, you know what's on my mind
When I raise up these glasses, know it's on my dime
You're coming with me, you know you're in my ride
Say hello to the good life

When I walk in the door, you know what's on my mind
When I raise up these glasses, know it's on my dime




You're coming with me, you know you're in my ride
Say hello to the good life
