R.I.C.O
Meek Mill ft. Drake Lyrics

Old ways, new women, gotta keep 'em balanced
I need to balance my old habits with new relationships

The girl of your dreams, to me is probably not a challenge
I can have any girl I want, it's easy for me

I've been counted out so many times I couldn't count it
People have underestimated me countless times

Funny how now my accountant is havin' trouble tryna count it
I have so much money that even my accountant struggles to keep track

To the people that think that I owe you shit
I don't owe anyone anything

Payback's a bitch and you know that shit
If you think I owe you something, karma will come back to bite you

Y'all niggas gettin' too old for this
You guys are too old to be acting like this

Please don't think nobody notices
Don't think you can get away with anything without anyone noticing

I've been up for way too many days
I've been working too hard without getting enough sleep

Y'all sleepin' off on me anyway
You guys are sleeping on me and not recognizing my hard work

Y'all don't be doin' shit anyway
You guys aren't doing anything with your lives

Y'all are not true to this anyway
You guys aren't authentic and don't really live up to your reputation

Ovo, east end, reps up, we might just get hit with the r.i.c.o
Our crew from Ovo, the east end, and reps up are in danger of being caught by the R.I.C.O. act

Everyone home for the summer, so let's not do nothing illegal
Since everyone is back home for the summer, let's avoid doing anything illegal

I go make 50 million then I give some millions to my people
I will make 50 million dollars, and then give some of it to my inner circle

They gon' go tony montana and then cop them some shaq at the free throws
They will go on a spending spree and buy expensive items like Tony Montana and Shaquille O'Neal's shoes

But they're from the way fam, there's not much to say fam
But that's just how they are, there's not much else to say

They told me to tell you your mans just some wastemens
They want me to tell you that your friends are losers

And stay in your place fam
Stay where you belong and don't try to step out of your lane

My dad is from memphis, and i’m the king
My dad is from Memphis, and I consider myself to be royalty

I should probably just move in to graceland
I should move to the home of Elvis Presley, Graceland

Madonna’s is a ting I know it and i’m the king of pop
Madonna is the queen of pop, and I consider myself to be the king of pop

I’m building never-never land
I am creating a utopian world like the fictional Neverland

How you hate me when I never met the man
How can you hate me when you don't even know me?

We might just get hit with the r.i.c.o
Our crew could potentially get caught by the R.I.C.O. act

'cause we in the field with them birds like we play for the eagles
We are out in the streets with drugs and money, like we are part of the Philadelphia Eagles football team

I'm on probation so let me not talk what's illegal
Because I am on probation, I need to be careful not to say anything that could incriminate myself

Today I woke up with my dream girl she as rich as a beatle
I woke up next to my dream girl, who is as wealthy as The Beatles

For my teachers that said I wouldn't make it here
This is for the teachers who said I would never be successful

I spend a day what you make a year
I make more money in a day than you make in a year

I had to drop this to make it clear
I had to release this song to make it known

That I got it loud like jamaican here
My success and wealth are very noticeable, like the loud sounds of a Jamaican party

All theses choppers poppin', niggas wildin'
Guns are being fired and people are acting crazy

Violence, why we even got to take it here
Why do we need to resort to violence and escalate the situation?

Why we even got to play these games
Why do we need to engage in these dangerous activities?

Run up on me catch a facial hair
If you try to confront me, you might get knocked out and lose some facial hair

Its the chasers what you thought
It's the Chasers, what did you expect?

I come through my block like I'm rico
I come through my neighborhood like I'm the powerful drug lord, Rico

Poppin' a wheelie no squealie can't talk to the cops that's illegal
I am riding my motorcycle and doing wheelies, but I can't snitch to the police because that's against the law

I was like rich porter no double crossing on my peoples
I will never betray my inner circle, like the drug dealer Rich Porter

I take an m to the table and split it with my niggas equal
I bring a million dollars to the table and distribute it equally among my friends

I'm back on that hood shit
I am returning to my roots and focusing on the gritty street life

Ya that wish you would shit
You better not mess with me

I'm talking that cross you that fade you fourth quarter
I will beat you in every way possible, just like in the final quarter of a basketball game

Like jordan we back on that bull shit
Just like Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, we are back and dominating

We came up from nothing we started on list who most wanted,
We rose to success despite coming from humble beginnings and being on the FBI's most wanted list

But now its the forbes list
But now we are recognized by Forbes magazine as being incredibly wealthy and successful

We really was doing shit
We were really hustling and making moves

I can hear echos from feds on this beat from informants
I can hear the sounds of law enforcement and informant activity on this song's instrumental

I think they recording
I believe that law enforcement is recording and gathering evidence against us

Shh listen you hear that
Be quiet and listen for any signs of law enforcement activity or surveillance

We might just get hit with the r.i.c.o
We are still in danger of being caught by the R.I.C.O. act
