Capo 1

I know its not your fault, but I?m a locked door
Anytime I?m a mess by someone before
And I wish that I, I could find a key
To unlock all the things that you want us to be

Let me open up and start again,
But there?s a safe around my heart
I don?t know how to let you in,
And that?s what keeps us apart

And that?s why—y I need time—e.

I said I—I need you
I need you, you understand, you, you, you
I need you, you understand, you, you, you

Call up the locksmith,
Tell him we need him quick
We?ve got a million keys,?
None of them seem to fit
While your on the phone,
Call up the locksmith,
Cuz I could use some time,
Even the slightest bit

Let me open up and start again,
And break this safe around my heart
I don?t know how to let you in,
And that?s what keeps us apart

And that?s why—y I need time—e.

I said I—I need you
I need you, you understand, you, you, you
I need you understand

I?m thinking now?s the time,
Maybe its time to go, if I gave you my heart, be gentle,
I?m tired of laying low, lets give the world a show
And when you know, you know,
And when you know, you know, you know

And when you know, you know, you know, you know

I said I need you
I need you, you understand, you, you, you
I need you, you understand, you, you, you

I need you to understand
I need you to understand
I need you to understand
I need you to understand
I need you, I need you, I need you, you, you

[Pre-Chorus]

I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
buy all of the things I never had
I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
smiling next to Oprah and the Queen

Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
D E A A/G# F#m E
A different city every night oh I I
swear the world better prepare
for when I’m a billionaire

Yeah I would have a show like Oprah
I would be the host of, everyday Christmas, give Travie a wish list
I’d probably pull an Angelina and Brad Pitt
and adopt a bunch of babies that ain’t never had st
give away a few Mercedes like here lady have this
and last but not least grant somebody their last wish
its been a couple months since I’ve single so
you can call me Travie Claus minus the Ho Ho
get it, I’d probably visit where Katrina hit
and damn sure do a lot more than FEMA did
yeah can’t forget about me stupid
everywhere I go Imma have my own theme music

Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights

[Verse 2]

I’ll be playing basketball with the President, dunking on his delegates
then I’ll compliment him on his political etiquette
toss a double milli in the air just for the heck of it
but keep the fives, twentys, tens, and bens completely separate
and yeah I’ll be in a whole new tax bracket
we in recession but let me take a crack at it
I’ll probably take whatever’s left and just split it up
so everybody that I love can have a couple bucks
and not a single tummy around me would know what hungry was, eating good, sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
go in your pocket pull out your wallet

and put it in the air and sing

[Pre-Chorus]

I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
buy all of the things I never had
I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
