This Has Been My World

[Intro: Ludacris] Over a decade later Let's toast to the good life We still living the hood life Welcome to my world Ludaversal [Verse 1: Ludacris] Listen I think I got the best job in the world Cuz I ain't gotta take the piss test Michael sending me Jordans every 1st of the month Said his kids love me, ain't paid for a pair of kicks since Why is it that when 'em niggas gettin' rich The whole world just wanna get you some free shit? (Hahah) Ain't that 'bout a bitch Especially when they told me I'll never do shit, or be shit I made it and never took you for granted Took off and I never landed, supply whatever demanded and no one's ever handed it to me I kicked it off with me and my special team and shot the [?] to me Touchdown on my old turf, money and bitches sucking me in my microphone vest And know I'm not surprised that my old [?] taking niggas to school, go do your homework [Hook: Ludacris] Yeah, and I been going around in circles Like everyday is a rehearsal Is my life your entertainment? This has been my world, Ludaversal This has been my world, Ludaversal This has been my world, Ludaversal My life your entertainment This has been my world, Ludaversal [Verse 2: Ludacris] Almost everyday I'm waking up in another city Another country, a different climate and a time zone Jet lag but I'm out of the bed fast for bad foreign bitches that I'm eager to lay my eyes on So I opened up the blinds to the sky on Wish that I could talk to God on my iPhone I thank Him for all of his generosity And for satisfying most of my curiosity Fans asking me what it's like to be me I always tell 'em it's more good than bad They say I want what you got I tell 'em you'll never have shit if you don't appreciate what you have So I have learned to appreciate all the simple things Like some good head and a fine wine We all going through life searching for answers And I been all around the world trynna find mine [Hook: Ludacris] Yeah, and I been going around in circles Like everyday is a rehearsal Is my life your entertainment? This has been my world, Ludaversal This has been my world, Ludaversal This has been my world, Ludaversal My life your entertainment This has been my world, Ludaversal [Verse 3: Ludacris] Seems like everyday is a holiday Celebratory popping bottles and model days Stereotypical rap shit personified From 8 albums committin' lyrical homicide These airports like international mazes Now my passport needs additional pages Then I'm staring out at another horizon Staying fly even in the no fly zone Bodies on board but my mind's gone Ain't no better feeling than when I fly home Staring out the window of the plane in the rains even the clouds need a shoulder to cry on I'm crying cuz I'm living out my dreams But this life is not easy as it seems It's sorta similar to a crack game Ain't no slowing down when you living in the fast lane [Hook: Ludacris] Yeah, and I been going around in circles Like everyday is a rehearsal Is my life your entertainment? This has been my world, Ludaversal This has been my world, Ludaversal This has been my world, Ludaversal My life your entertainment This has been my world, Ludaversal [Big Rube] Life is a gift And we have a responsibility to live it From the first breath to the last Our future is built on the foundation of our past Experience is a professor, and its test's at a highest pressure While we can't afford to crack We must bear not to break Like a reed in the wind we go with the flow While still reaching for the light Avoid useless conflict while never running from the fight The struggle that forever brought me to just beneath the surface I'm dedicating to the service of self and to my people And to never feeding the beast of unnecessary evil We say the motion of [?] Take the action to display our character From the first second that we start to feast until the day that we break this barrier So disparaging is a civilized savage only strive to become average I'm not happier as a maverick A cowboy that uses his cabbage to get more green than most millions done seen The good kind and never the bad bitch The best that life has to give are the blessings of this life that we live And everyday I'm [?] not lose my way I've had to learn Just remember in any existence it's not the destination but the journey Live your life Just Blaze!
