President Carter
Lil Wayne Lyrics

God bless America
An exclamation stating that America is blessed

Carter are you prepared to take the constitutional oath?
Asking President Carter if he is prepared to take the constitutional oath

I am
President Carter confirming that he is prepared to take the constitutional oath

Would you place your left hand on the bible
Asking President Carter if he can place his left hand on the bible

And raise your right hand and repeat after me
Instructing President Carter to raise his right hand and repeat the presidential oath after him

I President Carter
President Carter reciting the presidential oath

Pres-President Carter
President Carter continuing to recite the presidential oath

Sitting on the world, I got life in my hand
As an influential person, Lil Wayne feels as though he has the power to shape the world

So these days I try to think twice when I can
Lil Wayne attempts to make mindful decisions

Money on my mind as god as my witness
Lil Wayne is always thinking about money

Love don't live here and it don't even visit
Lil Wayne is indicating that he isn't open to love or the concept of romance

I do this for my uptown politicians
Lil Wayne is rapping with and for his hometown of New Orleans

Walked in the kitchen and found a pot to piss in
Lil Wayne is saying that he started with nothing

Niggas ain't satisfied until they mama missin'
People will continue to want more until they can't have it

Niggas ain't satisfied until they mama miss 'em
People will continue to want more until they can't have it

Uh, I'm a monster, exorcisms
Lil Wayne is expressing that he is a monster in the rap game and can exorcise his competition

Told tools like mechanics, mechanisms
Lil Wayne is skilled with weaponry, similar to how a mechanic is skilled in fixing cars

Uh, detrimental on any instrumental
Lil Wayne is confident that he can perform well on any musical instrument

I say you rappers sweet I pay the incidentals
Lil Wayne thinks that other rappers are inferior, so he is willing to pay all their expenses

I'm beneficial, I've been official
Lil Wayne is good for the rap game and is officially recognized

I say you rappers sweet, tiramisu
Lil Wayne thinks that other rappers are sweet like the dessert tiramisu

I like my short cake shorter
Lil Wayne wants his money to arrive quickly

Ain't no mother fucker harder than
Lil Wayne is the hardest rapper in the rap game

Nobody gives you a chance, you gotta take chances
Even if you aren't given an opportunity, you must take risks to achieve success

Your family tree, I will break branches
Lil Wayne is willing to end generational legacies if necessary

'Cause I don't give a fuck, I put the ass in assassin
Lil Wayne isn't afraid to kill his competition

Smoke you like a blunt then it's ashes to ashes
Lil Wayne plans on smoking his competition before they turn to ashes

The future is born, put the past in the casket
Lil Wayne is looking towards the future and putting the past behind him

If real shit is dead then nigga I'm a bastard
If being real isn't respected, then Lil Wayne will have to maintain that status

Uh, appetite for disaster
Lil Wayne is excited by the possibility of disaster

I want a full plate then another plate after
Lil Wayne is looking for abundance

Uh, yesterday just died
Lil Wayne is focused on the future

Tomorrow never cried, the days of our lives
Lil Wayne is indicating that tomorrow is possible as there are many days left in their lives

When shit get deep I'm never afraid to die
Lil Wayne isn't afraid to die in difficult times

Let the money pile up and tell 'em buried alive
Lil Wayne wants to bury his competition with the amount of money he has accumulated

Ask who the fuck want it, I bring it to your doorbell
Lil Wayne wants to bring his competition to their doorstep

Have niggas in ya yard like a yard sale
Lil Wayne is willing to bring the fight to the competition's home

Smoking weed, getting head in the oval office
Lil Wayne is engaging in sexual activity and drug use in a place where sexual activity is prohibited

I changed the stars on the flag into crosses
Lil Wayne changed the meaning of the American flag from a symbol of liberty to a Christian symbol

Ya, you dead to me, brown grass nigga
Lil Wayne doesn't value a person with dead grass, an intended metaphor for lack of wealth

I just stand still and let the ground pass nigga
Lil Wayne is waiting for others to make their money first so that he can acquire it from them

Bullshit for lunch, brown bag nigga
Lil Wayne is eating low-quality food out of a brown bag

Reality's a bitch and I'mma dance with her
Lil Wayne is dealing with reality and accepting it

Hundred forty pounds, 5'6 from the ground
Lil Wayne is describing his height and weight

Bitch I'm in the building you ain't even in the lounge
Lil Wayne is saying that he is high up in the industry and his competition is barely making progress

I tried to fuck the world and couldn't even get aroused
Lil Wayne is indicating that he attempted something great, but wasn't successful

I ain't looking for the beef but I ain't seen it in a while
Lil Wayne doesn't want a conflict, but it doesn't seem to happen anymore

Uh, and we all want world peace
Lil Wayne wishes for global peace

Murder show, I give your ass good seats
Lil Wayne is going to be involved in a murderous event, and he can get good seats

Shit, I'm much more than a good speech
Lil Wayne is much more than just words; he's about action

Gorillas in suits
Lil Wayne is referencing himself and other powerful people in the rap game as gorillas wearing suits

The holy war, the spiritual troops
Lil Wayne is referencing a religious war with spiritual soldiers

Fighting over the mythical truth
The people fighting are seeking the truth but it may not be real

Drowning in the political soup
People are being overwhelmed by politics

They shoot missiles and nukes
They are using weapons of mass destruction

Taking out such a pivotal group
They are targeting a very important group of people

The body count is the physical proof
The proof of what happened is the number of dead bodies

And they thought drugs were killing the youth haha
People thought that drugs were the only things killing young people, but now they know better

Thank you, thank you all
Lil Wayne is thanking everyone

I am President Carter
Lil Wayne is proclaiming himself as President Carter
