YUUGH!
[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Come on, let's toast the champagne, this one's for the life
Did everything you could just to be here for the night
Man, it feels good, everything is right
Energy is strong enough to brighten city lights
My whole team winnin', no vision on quittin'
I'd rather say I did than let them busters say I didn't
Le-le-let them talk about it, mane, I'm already livin'
I risked my life to try every day to go and get it, get it, get it
[Verse 1: Pusha T]
Came from the bottom, no one said it would be fair
Now I'm on this money, loungin' like it's a beach chair
Papa don't preach, a-all we do is just reach here
Raised 'round killers, we just happy to be here
Spot 'em, got 'em, let your soul pay your dues
While my hoes doin' magic, voodoo Moulin Rouge
That's a tactic that they use, fuck 'em high, then suck 'em dry
Before you know it, her Q7 is buzzin' by
The queen pin to the kingpin, redeems him
The boat comes, the dope drums, my team wins
[Refrain: Pusha T]
Yuugh, this the life that we made
Gunshots in the dark like a sweet serenade
[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Come on, let's toast the champagne, this one's for the life
Did everything you could just to be here for the night
Man, it feels good, everything is right
Energy is strong enough to brighten city lights
My whole team winnin', no vision on quittin'
I'd rather say I did than let them busters say I didn't
Le-le-let them talk about it, mane, I'm already livin'
I risked my life to try every day to go and get it, get it, get it
[Verse 2: Pusha T]
Supreme ballers, all my niggas got ESPYs
Triple doubles, both wrist and neck freeze
Triple doubles, two bricks and tech squeeze
Triple doubles, two hoes and check please (Woo)
They love me on my Ric Flair shit (Woo)
In that Phantom like I'm Blair Witch (Woo)
Who are you to be compared with? (Woo)
Ain't no niggas that you bled with
Court cases ran base and road aces
Lick shots or left bodies with no traces
[Refrain: Pusha T]
Yuugh, this the life that we made
Gunshots in the dark like a sweet serenade
[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Come on, let's toast the champagne, this one's for the life
Did everything you could just to be here for the night
Man, it feels good, everything is right
Energy is strong enough to brighten city lights
My whole team winnin', no vision on quittin'
I'd rather say I did than let them busters say I didn't
Le-le-let them talk about it, mane, I'm already livin'
I risked my life to try every day to go and get it, get it, get it
[Verse 3: Pusha T]
Look, my ouija board don't never lie to me
The best rapper livin', I know who's alive to me
Yeah, the competition's all but died to me
Raah, I make these motherfuckers hide from me
The Sergio Tacchini life we uphold
You just posin' for them pics so you can upload
[Refrain: Pusha T]
Yuugh, this the life that we made
Gunshots in the dark like a sweet serenade, nigga
[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Come on, let's toast the champagne, this one's for the life
Did everything you could just to be here for the night
Man, it feels good, everything is right
Energy is strong enough to brighten city lights
My whole team winnin', no vision on quittin'
I'd rather say I did than let them busters say I didn't
Le-le-let them talk about it, mane, I'm already livin'
I risked my life to try every day to go and get it, get it, get it

Pusha T:
I heard that [beat] and immediately was like, ‘That’s a single.' Swizz had an artist that referenced it. So of course Steven Victor is like, 'We got to get Chris Brown.' I was like, 'Chris, Virginia–Wow.' I’m anti people getting what they expect [from music]. I felt like Chris wasn’t full...
Pusha T:
“Sweet Serenade,” it doesn’t sound really sweet. It’s pretty dark so to capture that we came and shot on the beach at night time, bonfire.
It’s basically celebrating the fact that we’ve made it this far. We’ve been through so much, me and my friends. We’ve been around some of the worst th...
Pusha T:
I like Chris, Chris has an edge to him that’s very real; he’s a real person, he goes through real situations. Me and Chris are just two passionate artists about our craft, and we actually give a damn.
