[Intro]
Sign of the time
In the lung of the fruit
Sign of the time
In the lung of the fruit
Sign of the time
In the lung of the fruit

[Verse 1]
Bread in the wine
From the tongue to the roof
Spread to the spine
From the belly of the truth
Bled to design
From the jaw to the tooth
’Til your soul's out
Touch glass to the shine
And the sun and the moon
Sign of the times
In the lung of the fruit
Bonafide winners
3 points ’til we shoot out the soles

[Chorus]
I was on top of the world
Gold on my neck might go shopping for pearls
Hold on a sec
Toast over victories toast over checks

I was on top of the world
Gold on my neck might go shopping for pearls
Hold on a sec
Toast over victories toast over checks
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Me I don't mind
I got traces of the paper
Man I can not deny
I was counting up the acres
In the medicine mind
I was tripping in the mazes
And a measurement lines
Sweeter than I, sweeter than
Me I don't mind
I got laces in the races
That'll pull on the mind
I was patient with the faces
That ascend from the pine
They was drinking up the cases
And they left me the lime left me the lime
[Chorus]
I was on top of the world
Gold on my neck might go shopping for pearls
Hold on a sec
Toast over victories toast over checks

I was on top of the world
Gold on my neck might go shopping for pearls
Hold on a sec
Toast over victories toast over checks
Yeah

[Chorus]
I was on top of the world
Gold on my neck (Ya kamaan) might go shopping for pearls
Hold on a sec (Ya kamaan)
Toast over victories toast over checks
