Dreams
7.1 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nas said I could be whatever I wanna be
Rhyme flexing been texting while i'm stressing off this Hennessy
Who can it be nobody better then me
I'm a child chilling been accustomed to this rap killing
I'm winning this compitition
You haters you'd better listen
I'm coming with composition
A-TOWN is in position
We beat the bars until its batttened and bruised
You know my crew
We got the tunes to leave you grooving in your shoes
Papa was a rolling stone
Mum's was a singer
When my papa brought the money home
mum's made the dinner
But somewhere along the way I guess the pen made a sinner
Coz as I age I see my devils getting bigger
But check it
I'll attack the mic with every single method leave your mind second guessing
Where your stepping
Your tanks on 98
My styles on half an hour
Can you see it now you be on BO3 deseast but you can't seem to bleed it out.

I got a new dream i'm all right
I had to tell my girl Ill be gone all night
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight

I got a new dream i'm all right
I had to tell my girl Ill be gone all night
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight

She said she way to classy for a brother like this
I run away to the studio
Been working on my music yo'
Running playing games I don't carry round that heater doe
Inflicting all this pain in this game I remain GANG
Step to the gang pad without the gang
I don't bang like that
So homie wanna hang now
Feeling bad for that little boy standing on the streets tryna play with toys
(Whoops you slipped coz you making to much noise)
Settle down little mistress I ain't no pipsqueak
I seen your checks going pink right after you meet me
I seen your eyes looking beaming
Girl what was you thinking (Yeah)
Girl what was you thinking
Running and shooting and playing these games but no I ain't looting
I'm taking the cap off the top of the bottle and giving the juice to one of my children
Don't sleep on my students
We making a movement
A-TOWN will stay grooving
Room for improvement

I got a new dream i'm all right
I had to tell my girl Ill be gone all night
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight

I got a new dream i'm all right
I had to tell my girl Ill be gone all night




And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight
And we ain't been that good we just grown and fight
