[Intro: T.I. & Usher]
T.I., [?], Usher, baby!
Hey, hey (Yeah, man)
Hey what's happenin' e'erybody?
I hope they get my good side (Ayy, ayy)
You know I gotta look good when I walk out the house
You know I know the camera's following ([?])
I know they taking pictures, right, Drumma? (You serious)
Hey! Ay man (King is here), you watch it, I live it, you dig that?
Y'all sit back, relax, get some popcorn, man
I'ma make it a good show, you dig that?
(Are you not entertained?)
This goin' make a hell of a movie, huh?
Hey!
[Chorus: Usher]
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment)
You watch it while I live it (Live it)
When I walk they follow (Ayy)
I talk they holla (Ayy)
Just here for your amusement
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment)
You watch it while I'm livin' (Livin')
You waitin' for me to lose it (Ayy)
I guess I'm just here for your amusement
[Verse 1: T.I.]
Ayy, the price of fame I think I paid, want my change, I done gave
Everything in my possession for my seconds on the stage
For my name up in lights and multi-million record sales
I done gave up my life, can't get a moment to myself
When alone I ask myself, is it worth it? I ain't perfect
Neither's anybody else, but I think my kids deserve
To be with Daddy out in public without all the interruptions
When the lies and gossip's published, I'm the topic of discussion
And I stay in trouble just to show these suckers I ain't lost it
And I'd do it all again, that's the funny thing about it
I ain't playing, boy, I'm 'bout it, will I change? Boy, I doubt it
I done been a lot of things, I ain't never been a coward
See the paparazzi crowded all around me now
Same n***as who was dissin' want a pound like I'm senile (Fuck n***as, haha)
Showered with support from my adoring fans
They hear T.I.'s arrested, they like, "Here we go again"
[Chorus: Usher]
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment)
You watch it while I live it (Live it, yeah)
When I walk they follow (Ayy)
I talk they holla (Ayy)
Just here for your amusement
(My life) My life, your entertainment ('Tainment, entertainment)
You watch it while I'm livin' (Livin', woah)
You waitin' for me to lose it (Woah)
I guess I'm just here for your amusement (Yeah)
[Verse 2: T.I., Usher, Both]
Ayy, you seen it all before, guys, know how the story goes
It's like 2Pac never died, sit back, enjoy the show
You see the shit that scares you senseless, I done lived through it
Knew the risks and the consequences and I still do it
And then I'm so fresh, them n***as mildew it
Not just a actor by profession, pimp, I live movies
That's why they whisper when they see me, point and stare at me
Cause they just wanna live through me vicariously
Fashion week in Paris we party like a rockstar
Get blown by a top model 'til she catch lockjaw
Got the dough you get a year stashed in my sock drawer
Showed you the troubles and the struggles of a outlaw
Top dog would not fall, I am not y'all n***as
Couple pages out the calendar and I'm out, y'all
Kid, listen, pay attention, you don't wanna be me
It's safer to watch it on TV
Haaa
[Chorus: Usher]
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment, entertainment)
You watch it while I live it (Live it, while I live it)
When I walk they follow (Ayy)
I talk they holla (Ayy)
Just here for your amusement
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment)
You watch it while I'm livin' (Livin')
You waitin' for me to lose it (Lose it)
I guess I'm just here for your amusement
[Verse 3: Usher]
Now see I don't think it would even matter (to me)
Working a nine to (five), would it be better? I mean be honest
Would you care to gossip about me? Not likely
I guess that's just the way that it goes (The way that it goes)
(Cause I know) See I can be somewhere out keeping it cool
(And get told) Almost anything instead of the truth
Y'all know more than I do, it's breaking news to me too
Easy killer, y'all know that ain't how I move, ooh
He said and she said (What?), I did what with them (Who?)
No not me I said (Not me), she gave me no head (Ooh)
Won't get me again (Ayy), I pleaded the Fifth (Ayy)
I know better than to ever talk during the film
Man, them flashing lights can blind your eyesight
To when you can't see what's wrong from right
Well shorty 'til you walk a mile in my shoes
And understand this is who I am
[Verse 4: T.I.]
That's right
Usher, I completely concur (Yeah)
Life can be such a blur (Blur), obviously we prefer (Okay)
Our privacy but instead we endure
Yes sir, don't expect nothin' less of me
Cause this gon' probably be this way until the death of me
But for the hustle and the lady on my arm now
Plus all my kids and my moms I'ma calm down
And yo, we doin' just fine, as the time just flyin'
Live one headline at a time
Ya dig?
[Chorus: Usher]
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment)
You watch it while I live it (Live it) (In your music)
When I walk they follow (Ayy) ('Tainment)
I talk they holla (Ayy)
Just here for your amusement ([?])
My life, your entertainment ('Tainment)
You watch it while I'm livin' (I'm livin')
You waitin' for me to lose it (Ayy)
I guess I'm just here for your amusement
