Paradise Lost - Rick Ross

Magic City

Where the palm trees and the bright lights look so pretty

Don’t lose your soul chasin' that pot of gold

I’m tryna go where I can’t go

Tryna be what I can’t be

I wanna teach you what I can’t show

We gotta reach what we can’t reach

Tryna shine when the sun won’t

I gotta grind as I gun toke

She’s rollin' weed as I’m doin' me

I kept the G’s, she can count on me

Wonderful times, lay a head for a young nigga

Like the day she told her dad I was a drug dealer

That explains how the cars came

And all the big money at the card games

I roll dice with the low-lives

Timb boots and the coat nice

New Porsche with the smoke lights

Young nigga, get your dough right

Get your money right

Children havin' children, but they don’t have a thing

All this drug dealin', it’s killin' our brother, mane

The government feed them freedom, they don’t understand

If we don’t do it now we really don’t have a chance

My sister, my brother, get your money right

Care for generations, build your mastermind

It’s time to make a livin', my brother, get your money right

Magic City

Where the palm trees and the bright lights look so pretty

Don’t lose your soul chasin' that pot of gold

I wanna go where I can’t go

In Dubai smokin' dank smoke

No charges for the cellphones

But I charge 'em just to sell for

Peach Ciroc and the L’s long

Get to meet Barack, rub elbows

We the ones that never got the Pell Grants

Fuck FullSail, let your mail stack

I just wanna sign another lease

Mentality of a young nigga in the streets

But I think it’s time to buy that home

And if you got it give your man a loan

And if you bought it we can leave it 'lone

My niggas write it on their teeth of gold

All gold grills, but to each his own

Got in power just to put my people on

Get your money right

Children havin' children, but they don’t have a thing

All this drug dealin', it’s killin' our brother, mane

The government feed them freedom, they don’t understand

If we don’t do it now we really don’t have a chance

My sister, my brother, get your money right

Care for generations, build your mastermind

It’s time to make a livin', my brother, get your money right
