[Bridge - Lil Wayne] As I watch the trees fall down to the pavement And a breeze turn to blazes
[Verse 1 - Gudda Gudda] I’mma tell these niggas: “motherfuck the world” On the real, nigga feel this Punch a hole in his system like I got a steel fist I don’t trust a soul nigga, so I ride alone And I’ve been paranoid ever since I got a phone Yeah, better roll or get rolled over You too cool nigga? You could get the cold shoulder I’m from the city where the skinny niggas die Ride, I survived and I made it out alive And they wonder why my face look blank Cause I don’t give a fuck about what they say or think Uh, nigga you see me with that face wall paint Come on, pick your poison in the spray of a shake Militant minded, the way Gudda think You could meet the devil, better pray for the saints Militant minded, the way Gudda think Nigga you could meet the devil…
[Chorus - Lil Wayne] One day this world gon’ turn to ashes So where’s my matches? Where’s my matches? I blow the flame out, the world is dark now And everybody need their spark now And I’m like: “Where’s my matches? Where’s my matches?” Put the whole world in a casket And I’m gon’ watch this world just burn to ashes Turn to ashes, turn to ashes
[Bridge - Lil Wayne] As I watch the trees fall down to the pavement And a breeze turn to blazes
[Verse 2 - Gudda Gudda] Starin’ at the world through my rear view Gotta stay high just so I can keep a clear view Tryna do right, but I’m swervin’ in the left lane Tryna stay out of that black hole, watch my step man They say money is the root of all evil And we love it, so I guess me and you are all equal Shit ain’t been the same since Hurricane Katrina Ike and Rita, what happened with the FEMA? Government officials not keeping it official Like a ref with no whistle, so I’m tackling the issues And they wonder why we act the way we act Murder, murder, steal, steal, and sell crack to get stacks, but…
[Verse 3 - Lil Wayne] Where’s my matches? Where’s my matches? Put the whole world in a casket And I’m gon’ watch this world just burn to ashes Turn to ashes One day this world gon’ turn to ashes And I’mma just sit back laughing And when I tried to kick that habit Man I was like: “Where’s my matches? Where’s my matches?” This whole world is aware of my actions But they ain’t that bad compared to taxes Ashes, all I see is ashes As the world burns
[Verse 4 - Mack Maine] I’m a young arsonist on my late night Johnny Carson shit I ain’t never gave a fuck about the world Cause they don’t give a fuck about me, or my girl Or my mama, in the midst of the drama, ya digg? They try to pull you all the way back to get ahead of you Then Internal Revenue gon’ come for your revenue Sayin’ that you owe 33% of what you make When the world die, I’mma be rejoicing at the wake
[Bridge - Shanell] As I watch the trees fall down to the pavement
[Chorus - Lil Wayne] And I’m like: “Where’s my matches? Where’s my matches?” Put the whole world in a casket And I’m gon’ watch this world just burn to ashes Turn to ashes, turn to ashes One day this world gon’ turn to ashes So where’s my matches? Where’s my matches? I blow the flame out, the world is dark now And everybody need their spark now And I’m like: “Where’s my matches? Where’s my matches?” Put the whole world in a casket And I’m gon’ watch this world just burn to ashes Turn to ashes, turn to ashes
