Lyrics:

Denied the bail
I said fuck your honor
Went from poppin’ shells
To poppin’. It’s karma

They put us through hell
And then call us monsters
Now we pull up in wraiths
The ceiling like stardust.

Nigga it’s NOT LUCK
I’m living the dream
I don’t even Sleep
Too scared to believe… this shit is real

So many decease
For what I achieved
These diamond and links … for every tear
If I call the Team
You know it’s a Dream
We doing this Thing like 96

It ain’t got keys I’m hoppin in
Fuck the Queen In a Culinan
We pull up in that Apparition
This ain’t a game boy. This ain’t Activision

Ice on my chain boy, it hit like a Blizzard
No back and forth. Only the chain is Tennis
(Mhmm)

Had no pot to piss in
Take away they chains and they ain’t got no bitches
They mad at me but they don’t want no friction
They mad at me cuz they ain’t got no vision
(Mhmm/Can't stop won’t stop)

Pray in the wraith, the ceiling is Stardust
(mhmm)

Before I was paid these bitches was Starstruck
(Mhmm)

They Want us to fail but they couldn’t stop us
(Mm m mhmm)

The top look different when you from the bottom
Nigga it’s NOT LUCK

May look the same,
but nigga it’s NOT LOVE

Money.
The Fame.
My nigga it’s NOT LOVE

The bitches
The Chains ,
nigga it’s NOT LUCK

This is just HARD WORK

(Lil Baby)
Seen through that bullshit they tried to throw at me
You gon do it like me, nigga do it with a passion

My life on go, my lil niggas get active
he doin too much, turn that boy to a statue
Dare to ball
But when you fall they won’t catch you

A Different cloth
Just a whole nother texture
When you make it to this point they gon test
I’m from the ghetto, all this shit really extra.

I was still standing out gettin rained on
She was there for me, bought her a range rove
Took a lotta drugs to make sure the pain gone
I been turnt the fuck up since I came home
I was frontline when niggas was dead wrong

Got a million somethin plus worth of chains on
Young dumb bitch, but she got a brain on her

I was stayin solid
Niggas went lame on us
This our hustle
I don’t play around
This is NOT LUCK
Thousand dollar drank off in my cup
I be outside with the top off
We are not the same you a knock off
10 karat diamond
It’s a Golf ball

We was gettin a thousand every drop off
Now I run the game, I done prospered
I took they lil bond but it ain’t stop none
Every time the drop imma cop one
Every time they pop out we gon pop one

Pray in the wraith, the ceiling is Stardust
(mhmm)

Before I was paid these bitches was Starstruck
(Mhmm)

Want me to fail but they couldn’t stop us
(Mm m mhmm)

The top look different when you from the bottom
Nigga it’s NOT LUCK

May look the same,
But it’s NOT LOVE
Money.
The Fame.
But nigga it’s NOT LOVE
Digits may change
But nigga it’s NOT LUCK
This is just HARD WORK

About:
@jacobcollier has the capacity to capture the attention of any audience, but it never feels like learned ability. Instead, Collier’s gifts feel born, simply, from his nature.
Perhaps that’s why journalists often have to resort to platitudes when attempting to describe him: “prodigy,” “effortless,” “genius.” Indeed, when Collier speaks on his favorite subjects – rhythm, harmony and life – his knowledge and engagement astounds listeners of all ages and abilities. But here, the topics are slightly more personal, revolving around his love of particular artists, and his musical memories. As an interview, the Jacob Collier 12 Qwestions provides a different kind of window into the artist’s life.

When Rockstars Can’t Take a Joke…Just Ask Weird Al! Hotney 16 Streams • 5 months ago

The story of the musicians who turned down Weird Al's request to parody their songs.

Podcast on Apple Podcasts
https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/....podcast/the-rock-n-r

My second YouTube Channel
https://www.youtube.com/@RockNRollTrueStories2

For every hit parody like "Eat It" or "Amish Paradise," there’s a story of a music legend giving Weird Al the green light. Getting that call from Al has become a badge of honor, a sign that your song has become part of pop culture, ready to be reimagined with lyrics about food, TV, or total nonsense. For decades, artists have lined up to let Al work his magic.

But what about the songs we never got to hear? The parodies personally shut down by some of the biggest artists on the planet? For a man who built a career as pop’s court jester, there are surprising moments when the kings and queens of the charts weren’t laughing. These are the stories of the parodies Weird Al was forbidden to make.

To understand why a "no" matters, you have to understand Al’s most important self‑imposed rule: he almost always asks for permission. Legally, parody often falls under “fair use,” but record labels and publishers love to ignore that, especially on YouTube. Early on, Al didn’t always ask, but his longevity is built on more than clever rhymes; it’s built on respect. He wants to be morally and relationally in the clear, not just legally safe.

That approach has saved him from feuds and lawsuits and cemented his reputation as one of the nicest guys in music. Most artists, from Nirvana to Chamillionaire, saw being asked as an honor. But that courtesy also gives artists the power to say "no." And when they do, Al walks away. The undisputed king of these rejections was Prince.

Al pitched ideas for “1999,” “When Doves Cry,” and “Kiss.” Every time, Prince’s camp answered with a decisive no. Al never got a real explanation. Ironically, Prince apparently laughed at “Fat,” Al’s parody of Michael Jackson’s “Bad,” but he still didn’t want his own songs touched. He was notoriously protective, even about other artists covering his work, once saying that covering a song makes the original “not exist anymore.”

Some rejections were more personal than mysterious. Paul McCartney shut down “Chicken Pot Pie,” a parody of “Live and Let Die,” because he didn’t want to promote meat. The joke was perfect, but McCartney, a committed vegetarian, offered “Tofu Pot Pie” instead. Al, also a vegetarian, passed because it just didn’t sing right.

Even close collaborators sometimes drew lines. Michael Jackson approved “Eat It” and “Fat,” even letting Al use the “Bad” subway set. But he refused a “Black or White” parody called “Snack All Night,” feeling the original’s message about racial harmony was too important to turn into a joke. Al understood completely.

Then there’s “Amish Paradise.” Al believed Coolio’s camp had approved the “Gangsta’s Paradise” parody, only to face public outrage when Coolio claimed he never signed off. Al was mortified and later apologized, while Coolio eventually admitted he’d overreacted.

Not every "no" was absolute. Eminem allowed “Couch Potato,” a “Lose Yourself” parody, on Al’s album but blocked a video, worried about his song’s legacy. Daniel Powter initially denied a “Bad Day” parody, then changed his mind too late—by then, Al had moved on to “White & Nerdy.” And James Blunt loved “You’re Pitiful,” but his label killed the release, so Al posted it online for free.

In the end, these rejections don’t weaken Weird Al’s legacy; they enrich it. They show an artist who values respect as much as laughs—and sometimes, the parodies we never got say as much as the ones we did.
