Day Dream
2-Tone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know how to make time freeze
Ya toxic ways embrace my needs
You focused on what they think
I'm at peace when I day drink
Don't wake me when I day dream
You don't see the world the way I see
Up all night cuz we chasing dreams
Up all night cuz we love the breeze
Up all night cuz we know the Freaks
Come out at night
(You know You know You know the freaks)
Come out at night

I do want cuz I'm anointed
Can't tell you my dreams you want employment
Tree in both hands I'm double jointed
Tree in both hands I'm double jointed
Feeling like the realist nigga on earth
Check in all my pockets like a search
Check in all my pockets like a search
Check in all my pockets like a search

You know how to make time freeze
Ya toxic ways embrace my needs
You focused on what they think
I'm at peace when I day drink
Don't wake me when I day dream
You don't see the world the way I see
Up all night cuz we chasing dreams
Up all night cuz we love the breeze
Up all night cuz we know the freaks
Come out at night
(You know You know You know the freaks)
Come out at night

I say I'm the shit cuz I mean it
You say you the shit cuz you full of it
I remember days looking bulimic
I said I would make it route was scenic
Did you believe it
Niggas want beef
My iron low like I'm anemic
You do anything for the clout
But I don't need it
Ima rock her boat
'Til she tell me that she sea sick
This type of lifestyle is new to you
My flex unusual
Gotta get thru to you
Baby girl you gotta nigga
That's true to you
Half on some babies
That split was so suitable
You looking beautiful
Sweatpants an tee shirts in ALV drip
Button up re-work in ALV drip
Casual flip in some ALV drip
Bossing up put B.O.S. on a trip
An it was love when we locked eyes
Put a cape on and saved you like I fight crime
Going hard on a soft beat
Lately it's been hard to keep these hoes off me
They follow the hype that I created
They must of found out the pipe leave you sedated
Love the glare in yo eyes when you get faded
Just know loving on you will never be belated

You know how to make time freeze
Ya toxic ways embrace my needs
You focused on what they think
I'm at peace when I day drink
Don't wake me when i day dream
You don't see the world the way I see
Up all night cuz we chasing dreams
Up all night cuz we love the breeze
Up all night cuz we know the Freaks
Come out at night




(You know You know You know the freaks)
Come out at night

The new “ Enchanted Meadow” collection is so pretty! Love it!!💖💝

Denise D’Amore

I also just missed the live, but so glad to watch it now. I just love your center block for the runner. That fabric line is gorgeous, and I’m so jealous that you have the Sashiko machine. I have to old school it with needle and thread. And Hush Hush… so fab! I really think it’s great that it was a collaboration with all the designers. It was fun to see everyone’s version.

Dawn Loya

Love the Holly fabric! I think I’ll add the black colors 😁 looking forward to the table runner!!!
