Pearly Gates Lyrics - The Greenhouse Effect Vol. 2 - Asher Roth

Yo they thought I made a million dollars off I Love College 

Got a model, full ride them then retire to Bahamas 

I probably should've, my goodness, no idea what I have put up with 

Bunch of lame excuses from the suits up in the music biz 

Listen to what Q-Tip said, "game it be the shadiest" 

Keepers at the gate, what it take for you to play my shit? 

I've been super patient, watching dudes get in my lane 

But lets be honest for a second, we all know we're not the same 

And I know just what you think, this wonder is one hit 

It's a product or a? I promise it's not it 

No that I ain't rip 

With words that you can't script 

We all know who did it first, it just hurts you to admit 

I've been shitted on, spit up on, dissed and forgotten 

Rick Ross can be a cop, Drake started from the bottom 

No offense, I don't want to start a problem but come on 

All I ever did was tell you I was champ in beer pong 

I don't want to live forever but sure hope it lasts long 

Never underestimate the power of a rap song 

Never following a fad, I create a platform 

Have a son and leave him something, hopeful he can pass on like 

We're here to stay and never ever going away, right?

Keep my foot up on the gas, now I'm never going back off 

Now they're saying, "Ash, yo that mother fuckers back dog." 

Sure, had it in my palm but I had to let it go 

Some may say I'm wrong, but it's the only way I could grow 

Most don't understand this entire thing is out control 

No matter how it's going down, always have to let them know 

Kids eat your vegetables, stretch, wear your SPF 

Give 110% work until it's nothing left 

I refuse, but I confess 

Wanted me to keep them dumb 

Get them stoned, get them drunk 

I'm supposed to let them dunk? 

Nah fuck that, man I'm jumping up to stuff that 

Even if that means I'm getting stuck with just a buss pass 

Bucks keep the money, I love the feeling of hungry 

101 and running from the city it's always sunny 

I'm cunning and funny, something you can never take from me 

I know you feel it coming, mummy didn't raise a dummy 

Love me hate me call me crazy no matter what they rate me 

Or how serious they take me, what the labels try to make me 

Man I know that I'm amazing, I'll prove it just you wait 

And I'll never have a problem when I reach the pearly gates like
