Now that you're out of my life
 I'm so much better
 You thought that I'd be weak without you 
 But I'm stronger
 You thought that I'd be broke without you 
 But I'm richer
 You thought that I'd be sad without you
 I laugh harder
 You thought I wouldn't grow without you 
 Now I'm wiser
 Though that I'd be helpless without you 
 But I'm smarter
 You thought that I'd be stressed without you 
 But I'm chillin'
 You thought I wouldn't sell without you 
 Sold 9 million

 Thought I couldn't breathe without
 I'm inhaling
 You thought I couldn't see without you
 Perfect vision
 You thought I couldn't last without you
 But I'm lastin'
 You thought that I would die without you 
 But I'm livin'
 Thought that I would fail without you 
 But I'm on top
 Thought it would be over by now
 But it won't stop
 Thought that I would self [bad word] 
 But I'm still here
 Even in my years [bad word]  I'm still gon be here

 I'm wishin' you the best
 Pray that you are blessed
 Bring much success, no stress, and lots of happiness

 Cause my mama taught me better than that

 Oh (oh) oh (oh)...

 After of all of the darkness and sadness

 If I surround my self with positive things
 I'll gain prosperity
