We'll walk right up to the sun
If I ruled the world
Hand in hand
Still nobody want a nigga havin' shit
If I ruled the world, imagine that
I'd free all my sons, I love 'em, love 'em, baby
If I ruled the world, still livin' for today
Black diamonds an' pearls, could it be
In these last days an' times
In these last days an' times
Imagine goin' to court with no trial
If I ruled the world, imagine that
Trees for breakfast, dime sexes an' Benz stretches
No rubbers, go in raw, imagine law with no undercovers
If I ruled the world an' everythin' in it, sky's the limit
Watch the blimp read 'The World Is Mine'
Designer clothes, lacin' your click up with diamond vogues
Better find out before your time's out, what the fuck?
We won't land
Wait, I had to let it marinate, we carry weight
I thought I'd never see but reality struck
Open they eyes to the lies history's told, foul
If I ruled the world, still livin' for today
The Villa house is for the crew, how we do
Makin' moves in Atlanta, back an' forth scrambler
Life, I wonder
Runnin' from jake, gettin' chased, hunger for papes
Hand in hand
More conscious of the way we raise our daughters
The way to be, paradise like relaxin' black
Feel the wind breeze in West Indies
The better livin', type of place to raise kids in
I love 'em, love 'em, baby
If I ruled the world
I love 'em, love 'em, baby
Trickin' six digits on kicks an' still holdin'
In these last days an' times
Will it take me under, I don't know
'Cause you could have all the chips, be poor or rich
It wouldn't be no such thing as jealousies or B Felonies
We'll walk right up to the sun
We'll walk right up to the sun
Black diamonds an' pearls
Brand new whips to crash, then we laugh in the iller path
If I ruled the world
No work, release purple M3's an' jet skis
But I'm as wise as the old owl, plus the Gold Child
An' reverse themes to Willies
If I ruled the world, still livin' for today
You'd love to hear the story how the thugs live in worry
If I ruled the world, still livin' for today
If you could be mine, we'd both shine?

Duck down in car seats, heat's mandatory
It's elementary, they want us all gone eventually
We won't land
Trips to Paris, I civilized every savage
Political prisoner set free, stress free
In these last days an' times
If I ruled the world, imagine that
If you could be mine, we'd both shine?
Of coke was cooked without the garbage, we'd all have the top dollars
Seein' things like I was controllin', click rollin'
If you could be mine, we'd both shine?
Millionaire plan to keep the gat with the cop camera
I'd free all my sons
Imagine everybody flashin', fashion
I push a Q-45 Infinit
So many years of depression make me vision
These are the breaks, many mistakes go down out of state
I'd open every cell in Attica, send 'em to Africa
I'd free all my sons, I love 'em, love 'em, baby
Lifestyle cruisin' blue behind my waters, no welfare supporters
Black diamonds an' pearls, could it be
Latino an' Anglo-Saxon, Armani exchange the reins
Troopin' out of state for a plate knowledge
An' then we'll walk right up to the sun
Black diamonds an' pearls, could it be
It sounds foul but every girl I meet to go downtown
If you could be mine, we'd both shine?
Strictly livin' longevity to the destiny
Feelin' like life is over, these snakes strike like a cobra
I make Coretta Scott-King mayor the cities

I'd free all my sons, I love 'em, love 'em, baby
Days are shorter, nights are colder
Black diamonds an' pearls, could it be
Your people holdin' dough, no parole
The world's hot, my son got not evidently
Cash, Lost Tribe of Shabazz, free at last
Tryin' to get laced, flip the ace, stack the safe
Just some thoughts for the mind, I take a glimpse into time
If I ruled the world, imagine that
Gimme one shot I turn trife life to lavish
I'd free all my sons, I love 'em, love 'em, baby
