By popular demand from the Harlem Jets video, here is a sequence of b-roll footage from the 'Les Is More' documentary cut to an audio preview of "Swiss Francs". Leaving the Harlem Jets speaking engagement to pick up a deposit for a live appearance and eventually meet up with Fabolous (@myfabolouslife) to listen to the final "Beautiful Lie" remix. Cameo by Tank (@TheRealTank).

Lyrics:
SWISS FRANCS (Words & music by Ryan Leslie)
VERSE 1
When I was young, I had a dream of being President
Went to Harvard - the best money I ever spent
Graduated young - now they're saying I'm a mogul
People ask me what my address is I tell them: Global
New headquarters: down Wall Street
Went from being broke in Harlem, now we all eat
Twin Benz trucks - call that double parked
Plus every record I make is a f*ckin' work of art
I'm gettin' more money since I went independent
And they never seen me coming - had my windows tinted
The crown prince: pride of my community
And when I fly I want diplomatic immunity
My passport is stamped out - I need some pages
When I die they gon' act out my life on movie stages
Got a hired gun - motto is "Protect the Chief"
Keep these haters from scheming on this Patek Philippe
HOOK
Bills foreign, Swiss Francs
Before I die I want my money in a Swiss Bank
I can see right through these haters - fish tanks
Plus they staring at my watch
Follow Me
