  • Fat boy behind a lot of your favorite flows man
    Pay attention

    Ghost writer blunt lighter
    Write a rapper's song then go buy a home
    Lyrics they recite these are words I own
    Every album that I made I did it on my own
    Melodies that I would barter any label the starter
    Any nigga with cheddar I bet I can make it better
    Wanna live the life so they gotta pay the fee
    Last ten years everybody came to me
    Politicians propositions bottom bitches washing dishes
    No auditions for these bitches many scriptures we've written
    Came from the mud I use to piss in the tub
    If you never felt love then I considered you blood
    Charging for the verses, I'll throw in the chorus
    Slip-N-Slide fucked me friendship was aborted
    Publishing was something I would have to earn back
    So I wrote so many songs I would deserve that
    In return I wrote them things that were all to the world
    'Cause they were some names many names
    That's my word to confirm
    That's my word to confirm
    That's my word to confirm

    It gets so lonely at the top
    It gets so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    It be so lonely at the top
    It be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top

    Fell in love with the travel carry ons and what have you
    If a nigga came at you then he was trying to pat you
    Ghostwriter put a check on a niggas head
    You never knew all at the table cause he hid his hand
    Remember receiving words of wisdom from Jimmy Henchman
    I lit a blunt in his honor when he received his sentence
    So many successful entertainers with tax problems
    DMX went homeless and heard he back robbing
    Rosay won't be a old nigga with back problems
    In the back of the Maybach with black Tanya
    I went out the (?)
    Where I kick it with (?)
    Met (?) for the first, all the things I could say

    It gets so lonely at the top
    It gets so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top

    My ego's intact, my pen is unique
    Any pressure we come with sticks like they do at Philippe's
    God gave me a gift therefore I shared it with them
    Ghostwriter publisher such a beautiful friend
    We give them the slang we lease them the swag
    Tell them where they can hang tell them what they should wear
    Cheers to hustlers, bitches who wanna fuck us
    Ghostwriter never knowing they coming to touch us
    My team in fatigues diamonds drip to my knees
    Mike Caren a leach you'll all be deceased
    Culture is mine these words I define
    If you need you a hit I could give you some lines
    I could pick you the beat I should write you the hook
    You just sit back and smoke, all royalties took
    All royalties took
    All royalties took

    It gets so lonely at the top
    It gets so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    I get so lonely at the top
    It be so lonely at the top
    It be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top
    I be so lonely at the top Writer/s: Dwayne Leon Richardson, William Leonard Roberts
