An alias - the hotels I check in The crowds start screamin' when I start steppin' With the V.I.P. Posse and Jay on the cut Throw a wet towel, and the girlies go nuts It's kinda ludicrous, the way that they sweat me Off stage and they won't even let me Leave the premises, they become a nemesis In their mind their men become pennyless Bodyguards, everywhere I go And after the show, the girls are chasing my limo But they think that's the stretch I'm in I'm sneaking out with a devilish grin, in disguise Changin' to chill with the guys Hat for my hair, dark shades for my eyes In my 5-0, my girlie hides in the trunk I hear her giggle as I hit a speed bump CHORUS: This is not a fable of all ????? witches It's just a tale of the road to my riches It's just a tale of the road to my riches On the cover of magazines Motivated by the yells and the screams of my fans And you know I go many I'm like Charlie, I love to get plenty Plenty of girls and plenty of fans Plenty of stages and microphone stands Press everyday, I'm on the AMA Not Milton Bradley and the Ice don't play All this controversy, say what you want to say Before the end of the day, I'm owning chumps like clay Please, get over your jealousy Because the girlies keep flocking me Be for real, you know this stuff will never end You think I'm cocky, I'm slayin' suckas like Rocky No hope, stagger for the rope, but you can't cope Ten million addicts and the rhymes are dope CHORUS Nothing much has changed, I still chill with the crew The V.I.P. Posse down at Club New Maybe my ride has a speaker or two And at times I sport a jacket that's Red, White, and Blue Talk show hosts try to give me a joke But that's okay, I'm selling records anyway Got girlies screaming at the top of their lungs And when the Billboard comes, you know I'm making funds Autographed pictures for every girl Kicking up lyrics all around the world People trying to please me left and right The reason - The slick rhymes I recite The skill, along with dope dance moves And Sky hooks me up with the crazy hype grooves Walkin' in clubs without pullin' rank All the suckiz, feelin' the flank CHORUS It's just a tale of the road to my riches It's just a tale of the road to my riches It's just a tale of the road to my riches Aww yeah, road to my riches. Now chill...
