Song lyrics
Simple pleasures, rock star living
Drugs and mansions, hit the ceiling
Cars expensive, blow this action
True revealing – satisfiction
Yeah, I mean, I listen to these rap records
Half the time I'm suspicious
You niggas sound so fictitious
Believe me, I know the difference
I got some words for you niggas
You're the definition of (satisfiction)
Listen up, I been where you going three times and plus
Big houses, cars, jewelry, bad bitches all around this motherfucker, uh
I seen it all and guess what?
It's the (Satisfiction), you feel me?
Oh yeah, oh I see what you saying
I know some niggas just like that
Fronting ass niggas, man, really ain't got no bucks like that
Stuck like that, its cool if you cool with getting love like that
Flashing down to Southside Raleigh
You'll be running outta luck like that
What I mean by that is why your name always in these rental records?
Spending rent money getting that bottle service into your section
You leased your car, leased your house, leased your spouse
Know she leaving if you run outta paper
And might be smashing your neighbor
I know you think you a star 'cause followers clicking
Guess your ambition is to keep up with social tradition
Like sneaker shopping some of you niggas is fucking sickening
'Cause you'll take your soul out, just so you could fit in
Simple pleasures, rock star living
Drugs and mansions, hit the ceiling
Cars expensive, blow this action
True revealing – satisfiction
Satisfiction
Satisfiction
Cuz, fuck wrong with these niggas?
These labels always asking me to do a song with these niggas
Doc, I think its time for you to open up the pharmacy, nigga
And change this fucking music shit, my nigga, you should consider
Nah, I've been doing me locking, keeping these bad bitches open
And keeping 'em wet, yep, see 'cause Long Beach right by that ocean
Still sipping that gin and juice, my nigga, yep I'm still on that potion
And all these random niggas fake as fuck and I'm still getting noticed
God damn, man, how we 'sposed to handle this shit, cuh
Everything we built these niggas done dismantled this shit, cuh
We gotta get back to that real, that's on the dub
Another lesson from your uncle Snoop, what, what, what?
I'm just stating the facts
Don't get no realer than that
Satisfiction, attention, listen, play your position, player
Shouldn't be too hard, my nigga
It's supposed to be like a lay up
Shouldn't be so hard to be yourself
My nigga, wake up
Stay up, pay up, straight up, cake up
That's what I'm made of, high? Yup
My life is all authentic, that's why I'm going way up
Your satisfaction fictitious, your happiness is made up
Simple pleasures, rock star living
Drugs and mansions, hit the ceiling
Cars expensive, blow this action
True revealing
Satisfiction
Satisfiction
Satisfiction
