[INTRO:]
Gangsta for life
Tell dem dat
We got to make the money
That's most of us hopes and dreams
But don't you go and bow for it
Go in the streets and struggle for it
[Chorus:]
See I was dreaming that I'm floating on a thousand dolla bill
And if you touch my paper
And crush my dream up
Then you gonna get kill
I was dreaming that I'm floating on a thousand dolla bill
And if you touch my paper
And crush my dream up
Then you gonna get kill
[Verse 1:]
Making money and all is well
And I'm a gangster for life because my song can tell
But some bwoy mek thru the money
Dem back part dem go sell
Nuff go bow out
And some turn enamel
But the music give me money
Or di highest mi a sell
Or mi gaan pon a mission
And lef the place correl
John crow fly down
Because body start smell
And how mi survive
Only God can tell
[Chorus:]
I was dreaming that I'm floating on a thousand dolla bill
And if you touch my paper
And crush my dream up
Then you gonna get kill
I was dreaming that I'm floating on a thousand dolla bill
And if you touch my paper
And crush my dream up
Then you gonna get kill
[Verse 2:]
And if mi stick you fi you paper
Try nuh run
Because mi come fi yuh tings
Is like me a put it down
And anybody if and but
Then dem look inna mi gun
And if dem talk too hard
You know you gaan underground
Because me need the money fi mi daughter and son
Because mi try fi look a work
But dem turn me down
Den mi link with Daseca and do music fi fun
Big up Bounty Killer
Because yuh money can't done
[Chorus:]
I was dreaming that I'm floating on a thousand dolla bill
And if you touch my paper
And crush my dream up
Then you gonna get kill
I was dreaming that I'm floating on a thousand dolla bill
And if you touch my paper
And crush my dream up
Then you gonna get kill
