I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day I die, I`ma touch the sky
Gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day I die, I`ma touch the sky

Back when they thought pink Polos would hurt the Roc
Before Cam got the s**t to pop
The doors was closed, I felt like Bad Boy`s street team
I couldn`t work the locks

Now let`s go, take `em back to the plan
Me and my momma hopped in that U-Haul van
Any pessimists I ain`t talk to them
Plus I ain`t have no phone in my apartment

Let`s take `em back to the club
Least about a hour I stand on line
I just wanted to dance, I went to Jacob an hour
After I got my advance, I just wanted to shine

Jay favorite line, dawg in due time
Now he look at me like damn dawg, you what I am
A hip-hop legend, I think I died
In an accident, `cause this must be heaven

I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day I die, I`ma touch the sky
Gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day I die, I`ma touch the sky

Now let`s take `em high
(Top of the world baby, on top of the world)
(Top of the world baby, on top of the world
Now let`s take `em high
(Top of the world baby, on top of the world)
(Top of the world baby, on top of the world

Back when Gucci was the s**t to rock
Back when Slick Rick got the s**t to pop
I`d do anything to say I got it
Damn, them new loafers hurt my pocket

Before anybody wanted K-West beats
Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC
Dog, I was having nervous breakdowns
Like man these ni**az that much better than me?

Baby, I`m goin` on an airplane
And I don`t know if I`ll be back again
Sure enough, I sent the plane tickets
But when she came to kick it, things became different

Any girl I cheated on, sheets I skeeted on
Couldn`t keep it at home, thought I needed a Nia Long
I`m tryin` to write my wrongs
But it`s funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, now

I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day you die, you gon` touch the sky
You gon` touch the sky baby girl, testify
Come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day you die, you gon` touch the sky

Yes, yes, yes, guess who`s on third?
Lupe still like Lupin the Third
Here life here `til I`m beer on the curb
Peach fuzz buzz but beard on the verge

Let`s slow it down like we`re on the syrup
Bottle shaped body like Mrs. Butterworth
But, before you say another word
I`m back on the block like a man on the street

I`m tryin` to stop lyin` like I`m Mum-Ra
But I`m not lyin` when I`m layin` on the beat
En garde, or touche`, Lupe cool as the Unthar
But I still feel possessed as a gun charge

To come as correct as a porn star
And a fresh pair steps in my best foreign car
Self, I represent the first
Now let me end my verse right where the horns are like, uh

I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day you die, you gon` touch the sky
You gon` touch the sky baby girl, testify
Come up in the spot lookin` extra fly
`Fore the day you die, you gon` touch the sky

We take it home baby
Sky high, I`m, I`m sky high
I`m, I`m sky high, I`m, I`m sky high
I`m, I`m sky high, I`m, I`m sky high
Sky, uh, sky high, I`m, I`m sky high

Yeah, keep it rollin`, yeah
Feels good to be home baby, feels good to be home
