T.I.: What you need to do is be thankful for the life you got, know what I'm saying? Stop looking at what you ain't got and start being thankful for what you do got. Let's give it to 'em baby girl
Rihanna: You’re gonna be a shining star, and fancy clothes, fancy car-ars. And then you’ll see, you’re gonna go far. Cause everyone knows, who you are-are. So live your life, ay ay ay. You steady chasing that paper. Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay. Ain't got no time for no haters. Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay. No telling where it’ll take you. Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay. Cause I’m a paper chaser. Just living my life (ay), my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh) Just living my life (ay), my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)
T.I.: Nevermind what haters say, ignore them ’til they fade away. Amazing they ungrateful after all the game I gave away. Safe to say I paved the way, for you cats to get paid today. You still be wasting days away now had I never saved the day. Consider them my protйgй, how much I think they should pay. Instead of being gracious, they violate in a major way. I never been a hater still I love them in a crazy way. Some say they sold the yay and no they couldn’t do work on Labor day. It ain't that black or white, it has an area that's shaded gray. I’m West side anyway, even if I left today and stayed away. Some move away to make a way not move away cause they afraid. I’ll go back to the hood and all you ever did was hate the way I pray for patience but they make me want to melt they face away. Like I once made them scream, now I could make them plead their case away. Been thuggin’ all my life, can’t say I don’t deserve to take a break. You rather see me catch a case, and watch my future fade away.

T.I.: I’m the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished with the spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid. Allergic to the counterfeit, impartial to the politics. Articulate but still would grab a nigga by the collar quick. Whoever having problems with they record sales just holla TIP. If that don’t work and all else fails, then turn around and follow TIP. I got love for the game but ay I’m not in love with all of it. I do without the fame and the rappers nowadays are comedy. The hootin’ and the hollerin’, back and forth with the arguing. Where you from, who you know, what you make and what kind of car you in. Seems as though you lost sight of whats important with the positive. And checks until your bank account, and you’re about poverty. Your values is a disarray, prioritizing horribly. Unhappy with the riches cause you piss-poor morally. Ignoring all prior advice and fore warning. And we mighty full of ourselves all of a sudden aren’t we?
