The Dream
A.M.S.G. Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder what death is like
The artist ponders what the afterlife is like.

Is it really the end
The artist questions if death is really the end of everything.

Or is it just the beginning, to a new life sentence
The artist thinks that death might be a new beginning or a new punishment.

I can't tell who's really with me and who isn't
The artist is unsure of who their true friends and supporters are.

So I'm on my own path, you do not effect decisions
The artist is following their own path and is not influenced by others.

Less I ease off the gas, but I know that I couldn't
The artist knows they can't slow down or change their ways.

I done gave people time, that's time that I shouldn't
The artist regrets spending time on people who didn't deserve it.

But I gave you my love, my trust when you said that you wouldn't
The artist trusted someone who betrayed them.

Fuckin' leave my side, now it's me and my self
The artist is now alone after someone left them.

Funny cuz I never needed anyone else
The artist realizes they were always self-reliant.

I guess I forgot that for a second
The artist briefly forgot their independence.

I was trapped and lost, depression
The artist struggled with depression and felt stuck.

I don't ever think it ever left me
The artist still feels the effects of depression.

But I focused all my effort
The artist redirected their energy.

Into me and what I love
The artist prioritized their own passions and interests.

And that's why I'm doing better
The artist improved their life by focusing on themselves.

So don't ask me no questions
The artist doesn't want to be questioned about their choices or actions.

I'll give you all the answers
The artist is willing to share information.

Yeah, I've changed, bc no1 Wants2 C0mmunicate,
The artist changed because communication is lacking in their relationships.

I've got a lot on my plate, but we all do
The artist is busy, but recognizes that everyone has responsibilities.

So I'm going Kobe Bryant, wit no auto tune
The artist is going hard and authentic, like Kobe Bryant playing without any assistance.

Keep swimming
The artist encourages perseverance.

It's not you, it's me
The artist takes responsibility for their actions and decisions.

I'm all fine, sippin JD
The artist is fine, drinking Jack Daniels.

And it's crazy how my life has switched up
The artist reflects on how their life has changed.

I used to, be the last kid to get off the bus
The artist grew up in a humble background.

Then I got my own car, lil ford escort
The artist achieved some level of success and independence.

Goto school, goto work, then we run the plug for
The artist talks about how they went to school and worked hard while also making money through dubious means.

Anything, and everything he had
The artist stole things from someone without remorse.

Til one day we fucked up bad, really thought we had the bag
The artist made a big mistake and thought they got away with a large amount of stolen goods.

But the energy was off
The artist's luck ran out and things went wrong.

Seen the lights flash from the back
The artist saw the police lights behind them.

We was lost
The artist felt hopeless and uncertain during that time.

Used to ball on the court, now we're going to court
The artist used to play basketball but now they have to deal with legal consequences.

I'm just thankful we made it through that shit
The artist is grateful that they survived the difficult times.

Now we both got kids, just tryna provide a better life to live
The artist and their partner now have kids and are working hard to provide a better life for them.

So Yeah I'm gone, but just know that I'm gon' come back rich
The artist promises to come back successful even though they are currently absent.

BITCH
A final, possibly aggressive exclamation or insult.
