Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey how ya doin' yeah I'm doin' mighty fine
Last time I seen 'ya, it's been a long time
Stop smilin' at me get that look off your face
Please don't even front stop being so fake
I know you do not like me yeah you made that really clear
You're always talkin 'bout me from what I hear
Always turn me down when you thought that you could
I want you to know that I'm doin' so good.

Wasn't it you that said
I thought I was all that and you
Said I didn't have a clue
Wasn't it you that said
That I wouldn't make it through
Wasn't it you that said
That I didn't look too good
That I wouldn't do too good
I'd never make it out the hood
I want you to know that I'm doin' so good

(So good, so good, so good)
I know you hate it, but I'm
(So good, so good, so good)
I'm doin' so so so so, so good
(So good, so good, so good)
Its hard to face it but I'm

This is for them haters who said we wouldn't make it
Now we're doin' platinum and now you can't take it
But all the people round us that have been negative
Look at us now, see how we live
I say I' don't want my people, they're the ones who keep it real
Didn't get caught up and how'd it make you feel
All the things I'm doin' that you said I never could
I want you to know that I'm doin' so good

Wasn't it you that said
Thought I was all that and you
Said I didn't have a clue
Wasn't it you that said
That I wouldn't make it through
Wasn't it you that said
That I wouldn't do too good
Look at me now ain't that good?
Now I've made it out the hood
I want you to know that I'm doin' so good

(So good, so good, so good)
I know you hate it, but I'm
(So good, so good, so good)
I'm doin' so so so so, so good
(So good, so good, so good)
It's hard to face it but I'm

I'm doin', so so so so so
I'm doin', so so so so so
I'm doin', so so so so so, good good good good good, good
I'm doin', so so so so so
I'm doin', so so so so so
I'm doin', so so so so so, good good good good good, good

(So good, so good, so good)
I know you hate it, but I'm
(So good, so good, so good)
I'm doin' so so so so, so good




(So good, so good, so good)
Its hard to face it but I'm
