At times I wanna
watch out the Mariott
Zoning on owning co ops
Foreign drop top coups
and yachts guzzling
straight shots a scotch
Formulating up plots
to escape from Salems Lot
âcos itâs scorching hot
Making it hard trying to figure
whoâs out to trap me
Pataki, got all kinds of
undercovers coming at me
Perhaps he wonât be happy
âtil they snatch me
and place me where
half slacks be
sitting in Catsaki
But never me, see
my destinyâs to be free
in ecstacy on a hill that
awaits for me
So plus, just to visualize
is like a coke rush
Vivid enough to make
a living is a must
Plus this is real
Sugar hill baby
Sugar hill baby, baby, baby
Hey yo, son
Pull the shades down
and letâs count this money
Put the grants in the safe
âcos we spending the jacksons
The washingtons go to wify
You know how we do
No more cutting grams
and wrapping grands
up in rubberbands
Iâm a recovered man
Our plans to discover
other lands
Suburban places got me
seeking for oasis
Crystal by the cases
Ladies of all races
with dime faces
Sex on the white sand
beaches of Saint Thomas
Though this ainât promised
Iâm as determined as
them old timers
I wanna villa on the Costa Rica
So I can smoke my reefer
and enjoy how lifeâs
supposed to treat ya
Laid in the shades
of the everglades
Finally forever paid
Wearing the finest fabrics
tailors ever made
Me and my team
Carrabeans forseen
I guess being down
for so long
I always wanna see
my dreams
Yeah man
Sugar hill baby
Sugar hill baby, baby, baby
So until I see past
the green pasture
Me being supreme master
Ainât much more life
to feind after
But another chapter
A new way of life to adapt to
âCos these streets a gas you
and have you caught
up in the rapture
De ja vouz
I could vision my killa crew
more hospitable
Consciously aware
plus political
âCos though they claim that
every manâs created equal
whatâs his native people
Find it harder for nights
to sleep through
But once established
We living lavish, like the
House of Versi, Paris
I gotta have it, so plus
just to visualize
is like a coke rush
Vivid enough
To make a living is a must
Plus this is real
Sugar hill baby
Sugar hill baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby
