I don't even know why I'm surprised
I've been told over and over again
People are no good
You're no different.
[/spoken words]
Got the money, got the fame
You now got a fanbase and a name
Kinda funny how you've changed
You're a superstar caught up in the game
I remember back in the day when you had nothin'
I used to say
"When you make it, cause you're gonna make it
Don't change, don't change"
You're sittin' on top of the world
But how many people did you step on to get there (get there)
You're sittin' on top of the world
Seems like you forgot about the ones who helped you get there (get there)
You don't call back(No)
You don't want that(No)
You can't reach out(No)
Guess it's like that(So)
So enjoy your time on top of the world
Cause it's gonna be a lonely ride down
When you come back to earth
I treated you like you were family
Thought you were real but I was wrong
And I'm not impressed cause in my family
all the success that you're now having's quite the norm
See I've been there
Yes I've seen it
Fact I've lived it all before
So it's not about the spotlight or the fame
It's just disappointing to see how you changed
You're sittin' on top of the world
But how many people did you step on to get there(get there)
You're sitting on top of the world
Seems like you forgot about the ones who helped you get there(get there)
You don't call back(No)
You don't look back(No)
You can't reach out(No)
Guess it's like that(So)
So enjoy your time on top of the world
Cause it's gonna be a lonely ride down
When you come back to earth
[spoken words]How quickly we forget...[/spoken words]
Mmhmmhmm mm m lada da dada

Remember when I used to say "Don't change"
I see you're sittin on top of the world
But how many people did you step on to get there (get there)
You're sittin' on top of the world
I guess you forgot about those who helped you get there (get there)
You don't call back(No)
You don't run back(No)
You can't reach out(No)
Guess it's like that(No)
So...
So enjoy your time on top of the world
Cause it's gonna be a lonely ride down
When you come back to earth
You'll learn...
When you come back to earth, you'll learn
it's gonna be a lonely ride down
I'll see you when you fall down fall down fall down
It's gonna be a lonely ride down
I'll see you when you fall down fall down fall down
It's gonna be a lonely ride down
