All this trouble in this here town All this shit goin' down When will they focus on this? Streets fired up with the tv crews Look, ma, we on the news! But they didn't notice before this They float above the city lights Forget the truth, inhale the lies Just enjoy the show They see us reaching for the sky Just in order to survive Maybe we should go... Go to the penthouse floor Go to the penthouse floor, aw let's go Let's ride the elevator, they can't keep us out no more Go to the penthouse floor, penthouse floor All that bubbly, all that wine Aw man, look at the times Didn't they notice, notice Only future i can see Ain't what it used to be And i didn't know this I didn't know this Once you're above the city lights Won't wanna spend another night Down there on your own The whole world on display for us The altitude is dangerous But we ain't goin' home Goin' to the penthouse floor Go to the penthouse floor, oh let's go Let's ride the elevator, it's what we've been waitin' for Can't keep us out no more Penthouse floor I heard this old joke once, it was like, uh "Knock, knock.Who there? It's us! Us who? Just us! Who dis? Just playin'. Jus' me!" New phone, new hair, new era I'm in the penthouse, baby Hand-picked from bad apples and bad eggs Held back, i had to grab crab legs And then there were only but a few Conversations held with patience For the party, for the view What a dress, what a song What a beautiful time My folks downstairs still waiting in line They never been in these rooms, never stayed with these folks Never laughed at the news, never hated these jokes So was i fly in my suit? In a group, undercover Forcing a new smile, he tells me another He said, "what happened to the boy that climbed up the trump?" And he pushed me off the top and said, "jump nigga, jump!" Ooh don't bring me down I need a room up in the clouds I wanna get there, baby I wanna elevate Ooh my favorite mix A little ignorance and bliss In the penthouse, baby Go to the penthouse Go to the penthouse floor Go to the penthouse floor, aw let's go Let's ride the elevator, it's what we've been waitin' for We'll tear down the penthouse doors, those penthouse doors! We'll tear down the penthouse doors, baby! All in the penthouse floor, baby! Let's ride the elevator, 'til we can rise no more Go to the penthouse floor, penthouse floor
