Jet Life
Matt Easton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I just wanna blow up in the lime light
thinking bout what my life well then be like
go to LA I'm back on the one night
tryin to catch a flight I'm just working for the jet life
I just wanna blow up in the lime light
thinking bout what my life well then be like
go to LA I'm back on the one night
tryin to catch a flight I'm just working for the jet life
If you can have the money and the fame
have a couple planes and your name a property champagne
would you buy a big house and a couple of whips
and cash a couple of for your tips for a closet of kicks
I'd have every Jordan ever made,
so every day I could have a different pair
I wanna to be displayed, I would have my bed ten times bigger than me
and a Hawaii punch fountain that's bigger than D
I would buy a golf course and a court for all sports
host the final four while I'm eating four course
rapping out doors, playing polo in a Porsche
and of course it ain't a race when you own every horse
I have a guest house for the guys with me
up inside city what we sittin' sky pretty
I'm just tryin catch the flight and making it time
you could say I got a fly state of mind
I just wanna blow up in the lime light
thinking bout what my life well then be like
go to LA and back all in one night
tryin to catch a flight I'm just working for the jet life
I just wanna blow up in the lime light
thinking bout what my life well then be like
go to LA and back all in one night
tryin to catch a flight I'm just working for the jet life
2:
See I'm talking bout that jet life
I'll be working for the jet life
going the LA I'm back on the one night
tryin to catch a flight working for the jet life
working for the jet life,
throw to LA I'm back for one night
tryin to catch a flight working for the jet life
2:
I wanna wake up to a butler
with the joint rose for me to help me head up words
while I clear my head I wanna discover
that Natalie Portman is under my covers
pull a blank check get a water slide for my room
to the pool and I ain't worried bout school
I take a pay check and buy a couple of A's
so my grades will amaze looking like I was Harvard made
sexy maid yes, and I got places to be and see
and magazine rolling in the limousine
I got people to do a couple things to see
kicking in the mansion partyin' with Charlie Sheen
I hit the studio with Kanye,
take a couple hits while we're sipping Bambe
make another trick to kick it with Doc Dre
gettin' hella jet leg from flying the whole day
See I'm talking bout that jet life
I'll be working for the jet life
go to LA and back all in one night
tryin to catch a flight working for the jet life
working for the jet life,




Go to LA and back all in one night
Just tryna catch a flight working for the jet life
