Mike WiLL’s own mixtape, Est. In 1989, a collection of singles and previously released tracks that Mike has produced, a way to catch new fans and Johnny-come-lately industry representatives up on what Mike WiLL has been up to over the past few years. Also included on the tape are handful of previously unreleased exclusives, including the tape’s lead single, “Itchin’,” which features Future and has already garnered radio play, and “Animosity,” a track that features Gucci Mane and Yo Gotti.

All told, Mike WiLL’s placements have earned him well over 20 million YouTube views, heavy radio play, his first Billboard charting single, and his own burgeoning production company, all before the age of 24 – and with plenty more still to come. “I want to work with everybody, whoever I haven’t worked with yet,” remarks Mike, noting that he has no intention of limiting himself by genre as his career continues to flourish. “From street rap to Disney to pop; I want to do it all.” And as it’s been since he first discovered his love and passion for music from his Uncle Al as a young kid, no matter what he’s doing, Mike WiLL Made It will do it in a style all his own.

Paradise
Mike Will Made-It Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can have so much fun
Just playing with a gun
Who cares if all the world
Doesn't think we're civilized
We don't give a damn
In our psycho paradise
You can have so much fun
Just playing with a gun

We'll shoot you between the eyes
In our psycho paradise
We'll shoot you for a reason
Or no reason at all
You can have so much fun
Just playing with a gun
Who cares if all the world
Doesn't think we're civilized
We don't give a damn
In our psycho paradise
Try to take my gun away from my old hand one day
When I'm dead and cold
When I'm very old
I won't give it up before
So stay away from my door
You can have so much fun
Just playing with a gun
Who cares if all the world
Doesn't think we're civilized
We don't give a damn
In our psycho paradise
Who really cares who dies
In our psycho paradise
You think that I am cruel
But I think I look so cool
A real gun's my toy
Though I am still a boy
You can have so much fun
Just playing with a gun
Who cares if all the world
Doesn't think we're civilized
We don't give a damn
In our psycho paradise
Dismiss me from this job

And I'll dismiss you from this world
In our psycho paradise
