[Christina Aguilera]
 Everyone thinks that I have it all
 But it’s so empty living behind these
 castle walls
 These castle walls
 If I should tumble if I should fall
 Would any one hear me screaming behind these castle walls
 There’s no one here at all, behind these castle walls

[T.I.]
 Observing the estate through the gate from the outside looking in
 Bet you would think
 I got it made,
 better look again
 I got butler, got a maid, and a mansion
 The belief is that I’m living out a millionaires fantasy
 With Phantoms and
 Ferrari’s in the driveway
 But you see the pain and the change of the same man’s sanity
 Your vision jaded by the Grammy’s on the mantelpiece
 Just switch your camera lenses you would see the agony
 Apparently it’s damaging the man you see before you on the canvas
 He may seem alright but all
 the disadvantages
 His family encounters overshadows his extravagance
 Walk in my nines awhile I dare you
 I scare you
 While it really seem like the kings life aint glamorous
 As seen through the eyes of untrained amateurs
 Because the camera’s don’t see beyond the walls of the smiles
 Only counts until it falls in
 the pile

 Honestly to me, I think I’d lose every benefit of all
 That I’ve [bad word]  If my key is never with it, [bad word]  Me knowing this, why should the verses I have laid
 Be more important to me than the persons I have raised
 I guess I’m saying that to say
 that opportunity
 But they just don’t equate to all the time they take away
 From the kids all the [bad word] I did right is
 a mistake
 If Deyjah end up a stripper
 and Major slinging
 yay
 How could I ever consider myself a great
 If Messiah ain’t paid
 and Nique Nique ain’t
 straight
 Would your favorite song about the whips, money and [bad word]  Be relevant if you found out, the money wasn’t real, nope
 So me being the goat shouldn’t mean more to me
 Than see it to a king though
 From a bad [bad word] kid to man with
 some dough
 Otherwise I may well have stayed
 poor
 So while they stay focused on me beefin with Flip,
 Shawty Low, Gucci or Ludacris
 Or if I’m [bad word] with a hoe
 Did I snitch when I got arrested
 Or will I die over nonsense
 Internally I’m dealing with
 this conflict
 So excuse me if I don’t get the chance to kiss the hand
 Or slap me in the face, ay I’m just
 the man
 If they saying I ain’t the best at making hit records
 It’s cause this my life these ain’t just
 rapping
 [bad word]  you think of that deep,
 did ya dawg
 See you can’t see the castle through the walls till it falls
 [bad word] ain’t thinking with the deep,
 did ya dog
 Cause see you can’t see the castle through the walls till it falls

[Christina Aguilera]
 Nobody knows I’m all alone
 Living in this castle made of stone
 They say that money is freedom but I feel trapped inside it all
 And while I sit so high up on a throne
 I wonder how I can feel this low
 On top of the world it’s beautiful
 But there’s no place to fall

[T.I.]
 For the record ay, I give a [bad word]  If I never said [bad word] again
 My career was meant for me [bad word] and tell it
 Honest interpretation of how affected I’m faced with matters
 Most rappers used to keep locked away in the basement
 The day that I walk I ain’t saying that
