Ace of Base lyrics

[Intro]
Cars, the jewelry, and the other material things won't last forever
Then if you do have them forever, you gon' outgrow 'em
Not in size but in game
Then you ain't gonna, you, yo-
You ain't gonna be wearing that sh*t when you ninety, hahahahahaha
Do you know what will last?
Your goddamn reputation
That's why you should protect it
That's something you can't take off, haha
You can take clothes off, you can take jewelry off, you can get out the car
Your rep; you can't take it off
You better think about that
Don't get caught up thinkin' life ain't gon' last
It will, and whatever you do wrong, that sh*t's gon' follow you

You know what the f*ck it is, man
It's that motherf*ckin'
That fire out the barrel, n*gga
Look
Ayo

[Verse]
Designer rhymes, your sh*t dollar store (Ha-ha-ha)
Raw china white, the sh*t you write Tylenol, no style at all (Nah)
They throw petals down on the floor when I step out the door
Like Prince Akeem, I came up off a scheme and a ounce of snort
Figured out my own route, ain't give a f*ck about support (f*ck)
Now I'm so far ahead of these n*ggas, I can't count the score
X whoever name out, you're all performin' poor (Trash)
Use gloves to bag up the dog, don't get it in your pores
The world is yours if you a visionary
Life a b*tch sometimes, I f*ck her missionary
Face to face (Uh-huh)
Was blind until I saw the signs like Ace of Base
It's cake to make, never complacent on the paper chase (Never)
Now my name ringin' off all over the place
Started off low on the totem pole with dope on the plate (I did)
Serve you' through the hole in the gate, boulders of shake
Now I'm big steppin' all over the globe, felt it in my soul
That one day I would ball, but I ain't playin' for Golden State (Uh-huh)
Got the golden glow, I wipe your nose, it's no debate (Uh)
It's simple math: you gon' eat or starve
I put two and two together, problem solved, then I evolved
[Outro]
Aha
