| Song lyrics |
[Chorus - Rihanna]:
You're gonna be a shining star, fancy clothes, fancy car-ars
And then you'll see, you're gonna go far
Cause everyone knows, who you are-are
So live your life, ay ay ay
Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Ain't got no time for no haters
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
No telling where it'll take you
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just living my life (ay), my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)
Just living my life (ay), my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)
[Verse 1 - T.I.]:
Never mind what haters say, ignore them 'til they fade away
Amazing they ungrateful after all the game I gave away
Safe to say I paved the way, for you cats to get paid today
You still be wasting days away, nah had I never saved the day
Consider them my protégé, homage I think they should pay
Instead of being gracious, they violated in a major way
I never been a hater still I love them, in a crazy way
Some say they so yay and no they couldn't even work on Labor Day
It ain't that they black or white, their hands of area in shades of grey
I'm west side anyway, even if I left the day it fades away
Some move away to make a way not move away cause they afraid
I'll go back to the hood and all you ever did was take away
I pray for patience but they make me want to melt they face away
Like I once made them scream, now I could make them put the K's away
Been thuggin' all my life, can't say I don't deserve to take a break
If you ever see me catch a case, and watch my future fade away
[Chorus - Rihanna]:
You're gonna be a shining star, fancy clothes, fancy car-ars
And then you'll see, you're gonna go far
Cause everyone knows, who you are-are
So live your life, ay ay ay
Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Ain't got no time for no haters
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
No telling where it'll take you
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just living my life
[Verse 2 - T.I.]:
I'm the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished with
The spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid
Allergic to the counterfeit, impartial to the politics
Articulate but still would grab a nigga by the collar quick
Whoever havin problems with they record sales just holla Tip
If that don't work and all else fail, then turn around and follow Tip
I got love for the game but ay I'm not in love with all of it
Could do without the fame and rappers nowadays a comedy
The hootin' and the hollerin', back and forth with the arguing
Where you from, who you know, what you make and what kind of car you in
Seems as though you lost sight of whats important when depositing
checks into your bank account, and you up out of poverty
Your values is in disarray, prioritizin horribly
Unhappy with the riches cause you piss poor morally
Ignoring all prior advice and forewarning
And we mighty full of ourselves all of a sudden aren't we?
[Chorus - Rihanna]:
You're gonna be a shining star, fancy clothes, fancy car-ars
And then you'll see, you're gonna go far
Cause everyone knows, who you are-are
So live your life, ay ay ay
Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Ain't got no time for no haters
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
No telling where it'll take you
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just living my life (ay), my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)
Just living my life (ay), my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)
[Bridge - Rihanna]:
Got everybody watching what I do
Come walk in my shoes
And see the way I'm living if you really want to
Got my mind on my money
And I'm not going nowhere
So keep on getting your paper and keep on climbing
Look in the mirror and keep on shining
Till the game end, till the clock stop
We gonna post up on the top spot
Livin my life, my life
Brand new city, got my whole team with me
My life, my life
I do it how I wanna do
I'm livin my life, my life
I will never lose now
Livin my life, my life
And I'm not stoppin
So live your life.

I am sure, even though I am not a music specialist, that this song, the melody in the beginning that repeats throughout the song is copied note by note from one song a Moldovian group has sung couple of years ago. It was called "Dragostea den tei" or something like that. Again to say that I am not perfectly sure but I think it is. Well I just hope that they are aware of that.
Otherwise the song is not bad, I just don't mind it. | 24-09-2008 19:35 dark_angel_3 | 66 posts

Yes, mo_chuisle, this IS a rip-off of Dragostea din Tei by the band O-zone, better known as the "Numa Numa" song. It's most obvious in the beginning and in the background of the song, but the basic melody is present throughout. I'd give it a higher rating if T.I. and Rihanna gave credit where credit was due. -.- | 18-10-2008 22:30 chealsea_12 |  284 posts

It's a nice Sampling, though Rihanna is Sampling almost everything, the song [Numa Numa-O - Zone] is weak to begin with, and the song comes out just plain. | 11-11-2008 23:24 glen_nelson |  42 posts

Initially attracted to this song by the "Dragostea den tei" sample and then found out Rihanna was featured and it then grew on me, that was 2 months ago, now it is in the UK chart at No 2. Great track! | 22-01-2009 10:28 Jurperly | 73 posts

This song is horrid. T.I. doesn't know how to write his own music, so he has to steal others. Same goes for Flo Rida and all those other "musicians" who just steal other peoples melodies. Its sickening. | 31-05-2009 20:41 Dropkicked |  977 posts
