Some live the good life loungin' by the pool 
Catching a suntan and everything's cool 
Male or female  you want to be set 
In the big mansion drinking Moet 

You read the Wall Street Journal 
Later for the comic 
Far from dumb because you practice logic 
You lived poor in the ghetto 

Never had the money easily 
But you found the remedy 
So you  your girl  and your kids could have a better opportunity 
And teach them all about unity 

Cultivating in the brains the words of Allah the master 
And they go far 
But, you still go visit your old stomping ground 
Indeed to help another that's down 

A tough situation cuts like a knife 
In search of the good life 

From the church, the home, on down to the prison 
People want to know how is he and she living 
Does he work? 
Do you wonder if his life will bloom? 

Is the girl going to have the kid anytime soon? 
How's the mother? 
Do they ever go visit the brother? 
What about the dad? 

I heard he drinks undercover 
Some are still shooting up, another on crack 
Just the other day trooper got sent back 
What type of life do you lead? 

Tell me 
'Cause you can be anything you want to be 
Some will strive for the good life in any case 
The mind is a terrible thing to waste 

On drugs, violence, and hatred of another color 
Hear me now, brother 
All around the world the husband and wife 
Work night and day in search of the good life 

The G double O-D L-I-F-E 
Living in luxury 
Care free 
Period 

No time to waste 
We catch ours all day 
We work instead of play 
I B-U-I-L-D inside me 

Knowledge and quickly you vacate the city 
From a paranoid mental delusion 
Plain and simple 
I won't cause confusion 

Yo, that's your fault 
Stop the somersault 
'Cause I put the bad like mo to a halt 
My destiny I define is heavenly 

So, Fort Knox, open sesame 
Light shines and the birds keep singing 
As I still cling to my positive upbringing 
With the need to succeed, right? 

On a natural high 
The good life
