Good Life Lyrics


(All star, baby)
Young, quick, see
(F U B U)
Lately, all I see is DPG
(QB, LBC niggas)When I turn the radio on, keep hearing me
(All day, everyday)
Living the good life, good life
Uh, huh, good life
(Braveheartz)Sure as the world is turning round and round
(Shit is real, yo)
There's these niggas, bitches, snitches trying to bring you down
(Fucked up)
But I don't know why I mention
And if I don't pay no attention, I'm cool
(Real niggas do real things)
(Real niggas do real things)Sure as my chronic is the best in town
Those who tripping, slipping, listen, we ain't stopping now
(Can't stop)

We won't even pause, y'all can lick my balls
(Bitches)
We living the good life, good life, good life
(Living the good life, baby)Young, quick, see
(Come on, come on)
Lately all I see is DPG
(Nate Dogg)
When I turn the radio on, keep hearing me
(Still, still, still)
Living the good life, good life, uh huh good life
(We living the life)It ain't nothing but a paper chase
But even when ya paper straight
Every stage just another way to see cake
But niggas still gotta die hateWell fuck it, I'ma do it 'cause the streets put me to it
See y'all niggas is late
See it's big face, big living, big dogs and big pimping
Game played with nothing but precision
Money, cars and womenSee niggas hating 'cause they on the outside
Wishing they could find a way in it
You see the rims spinning all black tinted
With the niggas who'll bring it to ya brainIf it's fucking with change
Fifty-four, nigga, remember the name
Ritz, glitz, only when we empty clips
And dismember your brain'Cause I remember pain, gain pain, this winner reign
But now it's high tech out here in the center lane
See we got the world respecting the slang
The good life, hit the studio, the club, straight to the planeYoung, quick, see
(Come on, come on)
Lately all I see is DPG
(Nate Dogg)
When I turn the radio on, keep hearing me
(Still, still, still)
Living the good life, good life, uh huh good life
(We living the life)Yo, yo, yo
Pass you cowards, classical rap mix form power
Yasser Arafat, I'm storming with lead showers
And I'm murderous, common is formerly Nastradamus
I'm going for the top regardlessPretty Boy Floyd, the rotten tooth king
Ghosts of my dead friends linger
I toast to you, lover, blunts lit, wish I was hitting
Cock back, four pound, let six in the airRock that raw sound, getting wet to this year
'Cause of the projects Hannibal Lec, hand on my tech
In front the White House, my ice out demanding respect
Bravehearting to the grave, darling wavin' my sterlingFrom out the black Bentley, it's off, spray 'til y'all falling
East to West Coast balling
Nate Dogg, Nas and Kurupt, liven it up, dimes in the cut
Sizing us up, y'all wanna fuck, gin and tonic my cup
And we live the good life, still chronic it upYoung, quick, see
(Come on, come on)
Lately all I see is DPG
(Nate Dogg)
When I turn the radio on, keep hearing me
(Still, still, still)
Living the good life, good life, uh huh good life
(We living the life)

At least three artists share this name:

1) A southern rap artist from the northside of Houston, TX, born January 6, 1981.

Mike Jones has become well-known for his unique repetition of his own name throughout his songs. Many of his songs contain the phrases "Who is Mike Jones?" or "Mike Jones!" His major promotional gimmick is to sell and hand out shirts with his cell phone number on them (athletic department-style shirts reading "Property of Mike Jones"), as well as shouting out the number throughout his mixtapes and albums, encouraging fans to call him on his Motorola phone.

Jones is known for recording in the "chopped & screwed" style popularized by DJ Screw, also of Houston. The slowed-down audio aesthetic supposedly mimics the effect of "sippin' sizzurp," that is, cough syrup containing codeine. Most followers of the chopped & screwed style claim that it has outgrown its drug-related roots. Jones' trademark technique is to take a line from one of his songs and use it as a chorus in another, or sometimes even in the same song, screwing, chopping and repeating it (for example, the chorus to "Back Then" is sampled from the track "Still Tippin").

Jones has used repetition of certain words and phrases extensively in his songs. An example of this can be found in songs such as Back Then when he constantly repeats "Mike Jones" and "Who is Mike Jones." As a result, he has come under intense scrutiny or criticism from fellow rappers in his native Houston such as rappers Chamillionaire and Lil' Flip who have accused Mike Jones of copying their slang or criticized his aforementioned rapping style.

2) Solo pianist.

3) An experimental tape artist from Cardiff, Wales.

Mike Jones ran the CTOANR cassette tape label in the early eighties which featured the likes of Artists such as The Stripey Zebras's, Instant Automatons and other independent artists. Mike was also a recording artist and played in The Chromosomes, Effigies (UK) and released solo work.

Recordings from Mike and The Chromosomes were released in 2008 by the American Label Hyped2Death. The album Messthetics: Greatest Hiss features "Reckless Policies" from Mikes 1981 solo Album "Pretty Flowers", "Hi Fi Know How" by The Chromosomes plus a Cardiff based radio competition where his band finished third (out of three).

Since 1985 Mike has played in the punk/techno/C86 band named Otalgia (which is a medical term for earache).
