Why Not - From "Empire"

You know who it is, man

The young prince

OK, crown got my name on it

Bow to the royal prince

Started in the game, and right now I'm going to finish it

Down, but not limited

Pain is my benefit

When you take the Lyon out the jungle, that is what you get

Rockstar, top charted

Aim and shoot, yeah, this money my target

Been around the globe

Everything I hold, turn it into gold

Watch me shine, watch me grow

Come and ride with the mob (ride)

Boy, you better get up on your dragon

All that cuffing, gotta do it from the side, yeah

Just make sure you don't cross the line when I slide, yeah

I put it on the line, every dollar, every dime

Why not?

I made it through the fire, came out on the other side

Shout out to my enemies, notice that they into me

Keep that same energy, wondering why I'm winning?

Hey!

Why not?

Hey!

Why not?

Oooh, ooh, ooh (Yo! Bounce!)

Stop it, no you can't stop it, you know I'm popping

Oooh, ooh, ooh

Options, no other options, I gotta pop it

All this time, I thought falling was breaking

But I was mistaken

I dig that, out of the ashes

The star in the making

I'm thriving, steady surviving while y'all just getting by

Don't need the money to fake it to make it,

'Cause the money never lies

Never lie

All these blessings, let me testify (Hallelujah)

All these doors that open up, prefer 'em suicide

It's a celebration

Come and join the conversation

Yeah, you know the reputation

So, baby, don't ever play yourself

I put it on the line, every dollar, every dime

Why not?

I made it through the fire, came out on the other side

Shout out to my enemies, notice that they into me

Keep that same energy, wondering why I'm winning?

Hey!

Why not?

Hey!

Why not?

Oooh, ooh, ooh (Yo! Bounce!)

Stop it, no you can't stop it, you know I'm popping

Oooh, ooh, ooh

Options, no other options, I gotta pop this
