[Chorus: John Legend & Meek Mill]
Look how far we came (Look how far we come)
Through the fire, I stood knowing we would reign
It feels like yesterday when all this was a dream (Yesterday)
Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed (M-M-M-M-Maybach Music)
[Chorus: John Legend & Meek Mill]
Look how far we came (I think I'ma dedicate this one to all the people that thought I wouldn't make it here)
Through the fire, I stood knowing we would reign (Dreamchasers)
It feel like yesterday when all this was a dream
Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed (Yeah)
[Verse 1: Meek Mill]
It was all a dream. On the corner servin' all them fiends (All them fiends)
Me and a bunch of my niggas, yeah, we was all a team (We was all a team)
The system labeled us killas, but momma called us kings (Called us kings)
Walked through the hall of a prison, now it's the hall of fame (Hall of fame)
And people got the nerve to ask why I wear all these chains (All these chains)
When I was booked, they had me shackled to the wall of shame (Wall of shame)
So I'm just representin'. Better yet, just reminiscin'
Put down on that Bentley truck, I used to want the Expedition
Now, it's bigger things, grew up and got bigger dreams
Cause in my hood, niggas try to smoke you just like nicotine
And this money, shit ain't funny, all the shit it brings
You bound to lose your family and your friends, boy, this shit is mean
And birthdays was the worst days (Worst days)
Last week, I made a hundred on a Thursday (Thursday)
And Club Liv got me sinnin' on a church day
Stevie J all on the mic, he screamin' out my birthplace. Philly, we back!
[Chorus: John Legend & Nas]
Look how far we came
Through the fire, I stood knowing we would reign
It feel like yesterday when all this was a dream
Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed (Haha. Yo)
[Verse 2: Nas]
I'm blunted. You wanna see life's meaning?
On the radio, Al Green, while mom's cleanin'
Mom's singing along with the songs, and shortly I learned the words to 'em
Nerf balls, I threw 'em
But now, I'm a perfectionist to a fault like Jesus
Judgin' his own miracles, but he won't, 'cause he automatic
I'm like an old blues singer living in the bottle
Whose wife left him down in the bottom. Writing songs is how we solvin' the problem
My liquid money's a hypnotist to your misses
Lay back like I'm in the chair of a dentist
Nasir relentless, a freak like Prince is. Mystique like Sade
Soon as I enter, people point and see my anointment
I ain't tryna do too much, same time, I ain't no bum nigga not doin' enough
But I ain't tryna do no dumb shit, chasin' my tail in a circle
I made it so I'm chillin' now, transparent ceiling now
Nas and Meek killin', hah! Wow! (Yeah! We did it, baby)
[Chorus: John Legend & Rick Ross]
Look how far we came
Through the fire, I stood knowing we would reign
It feel like yesterday when all this was a dream (You dreaming of nightmares. You dreaming of nightmares)
Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed (Let's go)
[Verse 3: Rick Ross]
(M-M-M-M-Maybach Music) The chorus cinematic. Going back to Cali (Right)
Young street nigga, late 80's suede Bally's (Ah!)
Jewels like Rick the Ruler, looking like I ripped the jeweler (Ooh!)
I could cut a check, make some people hit your shooter (Shooter)
Domino effect (Effect), you in that magic city (City)
Where all they do is flex (Flex); call it Milli Vanilli ('Nilli)
Coming from the bottom (Bottom), my lil' nigga from Philly (Lil' nigga from Philly)
Young legend outta Queens, take over city to city (Ah!)
Honor thy mother, go to war for my brother
Giving sufficient funds to significant others (What?)
Went from poor now women screamin' for my signature (Signature)
More war. Came from the bottom, so I know the war
Never worn, always on, y'all niggas luke warm
Talking cash over salads, heavy croûtons (Woo!)
Cuban links equivalent to having suits on (Ah)
Stretch Maybachs 'til they bring the coupes on
[Chorus: John Legend]
Look how far we came
Through the fire, I stood knowing we would reign
It feel like yesterday when all this was a dream
Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed
[Chorus: John Legend]
Look how far we came
Through the fire, I stood knowing we would reign
It feel like yesterday when all this was a dream
Through these Maybach curtains, I see how life has changed
