viva la vida This song is about a man who used to rule the streets. "Seas would rise when I gave the word." MotherFuckers would die when I gave the word and there would be tears from my enemies family and friends. Now "in the morning I sleep alone, sweep the streets that I used to own" Now I have lost it all - money, hoes, family all swept from me. "I used to roll the dice" Literally & Figuratively I used to roll the dice taking MF's money rolling dice and rolled the dice with my life and others around me. All feared me. I killed the old leader, now I am the New Leader. "one minute I held the key.."And I knew all this could be taken any day really fast, just like it all came to me real fast. I had it all, now I'm in prison. "I hear..."Now I'm in prison,now I'm reading the Bible reflecting on all the bad I have done. All my homeboys out there still grinding. I knew all along this way of life was wrong, but I could not help it. It was the cards I was dealt and I played them cashed it all in. Living like a King - that was when I ruled the world. "It was a wicked wind..." The FBI came busting in my house, bullets came thru the window and walls, shattering some of my homeboys and still we went out in a blaze - why didn't I die, I should have. People could not believe what had happened. It was like an apocalypse, it was my apocalypse. "Revolutionaries wait..."All the police and those that abide by the law want me dead for all the wrong I have done. To make an example out of me so that others wouldn't want to be the King of the streets. Who wants to end up hung for all the see? NO, not even those who run the streets. I know I did bad and now I pay the ultimate price - St Peter won't call my name.
