Scarface, into livin' life
like a king (yeah)
Every [Am]day eatin' good with my team
[F](the American dream) (what's up?)
First they said I wouldn't,
but I knew that I would make it (I knew it)
Copped my first pie, yeah,
I knew that [Am]I could bake it (w[G]hat's up?)
Scarface vision,
livin' life like a king (hey)
Every [Am]day grindin' h[G]ard with my team ([F]the Amer
[C]ica[F]n dream) (yeah, oh)

[Verse 3]
You either good or you great
You either real or you fake
That's [Am]why I stay spittin' t[F]he real
Because the real ones [Am]relate
[G]Y'all must was raised by some haters
You niggas go 'head and hate
[Am]Four car gar[G]age for the 'Rari,
that bitch came with the [F]estate
I swear them streets get so tricky,
glad I ain't fall for the bait
So focused and I'm determined,
can see that shit in my face
[G]You niggas go 'head and face it
Lil' bitch, ain't shit 'bout me basic
Hit a lick on them bitches and [Am]went
and [F]iced out the bracelet
Never let my flaws and my past come
get the best of me [Am](never)
Turn a two fifty to a [C]half, I [Am]got the recipe
[F]First my [G]president was black,
now my president is wack (wack)
I ain't [Am]never goin' [G]broke, [F]what's American in [G]that? (hey, let's go) I
[F]just want a big ol' bag of money when I see my jeweler (woo)
Get a [C]hard- [F]on when I'm countin'
up that mula [G](haha)
Scarface, into livin' life

Every [Am]day eatin' good with my
team [F](the American dream)
First they said I wouldn't,
but I knew that I would make it
Copped my first pie, yeah,
I knew that I could bake it [G](alright)
Scarface vision, livin' life like a king
Every day [Am]grindin' [G]hard [F]with [Am]my team
[F](the American dream) (oh)

[Verse 4]
Got money to [F]make,
blow out the candles then cut up the cake
[Am]Then I put it on plate, I'm [F]runnin' the game,
you runnin' in [G]place
Still a youngin' at heart, but mentally,
bitch I'm a hundred and [Am]eight
Like Pun in the late nineties,
my niggas is [F]jugglin' weight
Runnin' from state to state,
gunnin' up ways to safety
I'm on a paper chase,
whatever it takes to make me
A [G]millionaire,
silly 'cause how many really get there?
I mean, [F]how many [Am]niggas is Jeezy?
Y'all make this shit sound so [F]easy
Breezy, turn on the TV,
see these niggas that trap on the CD
Meanwhile, back home,
my niggas sell crack at the [G]BP (slide)
Hopin' one day they can be
the (slide)
Niggas that's there on the screen
[F](slide)
'Cause that's the [Am]American
[F]dream [Am](slide)
Now [F]here go the thing, [Am]listen[F]
Hysterical screams,
comin' from mothers that buried their kings
Or the unbearable pain of watchin' them walk
out with the sheriff [G]in chains
Becomin' a [F]number,
they no longer care bout the name
White folks been gettin'
rich off of cocaine
Through some underhanded methods,
I don't got time to explain
Out of fear that I won't [Am]reach 'em and
since [F]preachin' [Am]ain't my [F]thing
[Am]I just dro[G]p a gem or two
within a few verses I sing
For all my [F]real niggas [Am]trapped [F]inside the game,
you know that already

[Verse 5]
I [F]just want a big ol' bag of money
when I see my jeweler (woo)
Get a hard- on when I'm countin'
up that mula [G](haha)
Scarface, into livin' life
like a king (hey)
Every day eatin' good with my
[Am]team [G](the American dream)
[F]First they said I wouldn't,
but I knew that I would make it
Copped my first pie, yeah,
I knew that I could bake [Am]it (alright)
Scarface [G]vision, livin' life like a king
Every day [Em]grindin' [G]hard [Am]with my team
(the Amer[F]ican dream) (oh)
