| You can look at my life* |
| And see what I see |
| But you can never |
| You can never do it like me |
| You can never |
| You can never do it like me |
| Like me. |
| Been workaholic |
| Since my momma birth me |
| Since I was a shawty |
| Runnin’around in the nursery |
| Never knew my father |
| So I grew up early |
| Learn to handle business |
| Like a nigga in his thirties. |
| Now that money ain’t a problem |
| Livin’like we moppin' |
| Care about the boulevard |
| That’s why we go hard |
| Cause once upon a time we were at the bottom |
| And I really hated being on the bottom |
| Up, up in that third wall (third wall) |
| I would write songs (write songs) |
| About the day when I could turn the lights on |
| Through that I’d see the day |
| When I could perform |
| In front of these crowds (these crowds) |
| Look at me now (Look at me now) |
| That’s why I say. |
| You can look at my life |
| And see what I see |
| But you can never |
| You can never do it like me |
| You can never |
| You can never do it like me |
| Like me. |
| Like me (Ohhhhhh) |
| Never do it like me (No you can never do it like me) |
| Do it like me (Ohhhh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh) |
| Hustlin’is hard work |
| Gotta really want it |
| Dedicated my life tryin’to get it |
| Oh stay true to yourself don’t fraught it |
| Never talked about it |
| Everybody live it. |
| Calling the shots now |
| I’m the boss man |
| Got the whole wideworld in my hand |
| Im at the top now |
| But I did it my way |
| Told them haters hit the highway. |
| Said I remember those days |
| I would write songs (write songs) |
| About the day I could turn the lights on |
| That I could see the day |
| That I could perform |
| In front of these crowds (these crowds) |
| Look at me now (Look at me now) |
| That’s why I say |
| You can look at my life |
| And see what I see |
| But you can never |
| You can never do it like me |
| You can never |
| You can never do it like me |
| Like me. |
