Standing Ovation

Standing Ovation - Chamillionaire

Written by：K. Carr

Now that I've got dough in my pockets

And a whole lot of profits owww

Seems like everybody loves me

It feels great

Seems like everybody loves me

A round of applause for the 'cause

Thank you thank you

Chchyea

Used to treat me like the bad guy from houston

And the media was like darth vader

People turnin' like turntables

Stay crossin' over like crossfaders

Try to switch up teams like ball playas

So our enemies are like our neighbors

Keep 'em close yeah very close

Most of my folks are still on papers

You can work or you can have the work

But we makin' more than all of y'all wages

Motivation makes hustlas make ya

So we successful because y'all made us

Used to not give a flyin' eff

When they greated us with that one finga

Whole world jumped on the tip

And we hit the switch and sat on swangaz

In the hood they say y'all famous

Grindin' hard so we can ball later

They be like d**n that boy made it

If they say I didn't that's wrong data

First the braud would try to say I'm fraud

See me pull that waud and that braud changes

Callin' me she wanna be on the team

And now she's mad because I'm ignorin' pagers

Boys thinkin' that they can serve me

Y'all actin' like y'all waiters

Same ones who used to walk pass me

We was underground but now we on majors

Keep speakin' beggin' for a beat

I'll tell streets to do the boy a favor

Turn 'em purple blue and red all flavors

I got a message for all haters

Headed to the top

And there ain't no way to stop it

And I sho ain't forgot

When everybody used to judge me

Now that I got dough in my pockets

And a whole lot of profit

Seems like everybody loves me

I know you like my style

I know you like my style

I know you love the way I put it down

I made it through the hate in

So when you see me shinin'

Gimme a standing ovation

I was bouncin' back like ping pong

Ridin' became the new theme song

Beatin' on my chest like I'm king kong

When I broke the record for ring tones

You ever seen a platinum plaque

That look like that

Then you seen wrong

Better sit back and relax

'Cause my platinum reign is gonna sing long

And I don't blame boys for hatin'

Because they wasn't patient

And they didn't know the plan

I knew that something had them shakin

It was gonna bubble like a coka cola can

And I shook it up like a soda can

My wallet is over flowin' man

Now my potential is unlimited

Like the minutes on my motorola plan

Accountants and lawyers

I got big business managers

Chamillitary is an interprise

Is you ready to ride

Is you what

Sound scannin' in Africa

Sound scannin' in Canada

We don't play yeah vmas

It can't get any better can it huh can it huh

And I know it's hard to stay humble

They really thought I threw a fumble

I could of caught that through the trees

While runnin' right into the jungle

Could of been little mugsy bee

Turn her back into mutumble

Would of still been a victory for me

You win then they'll say they love you

I know you like my style

I know you like my style

I know you love the way I put it down

I made it through the hate in'

So when you see me shinin'

Gimme a standing ovation

Let's give a cheers give 'em cheers

To everyone who thought I'd disappear

Thought that every word I said

Was a subliminal shot to disappear

Now I'm in a different gear

No beef no hate no dissin' here

You must of been drunk to doubt me

You obviously didn't miss a beer

I used to argue about everything

With folks that just didn't hear

Realized I was wastin' words

Like whisperin' in a missin' ear

I say it good and real

They tellin' me it isn't clear

My two eyes just didn't tear

'Cause weakness is what I didn't feel yeah

It's a better result than last time

But this grind it's a different year

I really should be commended

For what I've accomplished

Give a cheer

Naw matter fact

I take that back wonderful

Hold your applause for the sequel

We haven't gotten to the part where they try to cheat you

Aha

Woo
