My Dream
Akon / Notorious BIG / Kanye West Lyrics

See I remember I was just loner
I recall a time when I used to be alone and isolated

(I was just a loner, I was just a loner)
(I was completely solitary, I was entirely isolated)

(But I told them haters) "Look at me!"
(However, I confidently challenged those who doubted me to witness my success)

(I dream, you Dream, We all Dream big dreams)
(We all have aspirations and ambitions)

(I dream, you Dream, We all Dream big dreams)
(I dream, you dream, we all have grand aspirations)

I'm on top permanently but I stay in the streets (Harmony baby)
I have achieved long-lasting success, but I remain connected to my roots and the urban environment

And I won't stop bringin that heat
I will continue to deliver exceptional music that captivates and excites

It's my dream (I said it's my dream)
This is the realization of my personal vision (I emphatically declare it's my dream)
