California Dreamin
Dream Warriors Lyrics

Baby used to be a California dream
The person used to have aspirations and dreams of living a luxurious life in California

But eventually everything becomes a dirt pit
However, over time, dreams and aspirations can turn into disappointments and unfulfilling realities

In a showroom frame I attract another hit
In a glamorous and superficial lifestyle, I am able to draw attention and admiration from others

If you run to the sun, call Lu, then you trip
If you blindly chase after temporary pleasures and materialistic desires, you will ultimately stumble and fall

I think it's time for you to retire, you skipped
It's time for you to give up and move on, as you have constantly avoided facing the consequences of your actions

That's what you get when you suck too much less
You reap the negative outcomes when you consistently underperform or put in minimal effort

You get penis end, like the girl in the tight dress
You get the short end of the stick, just like the girl who draws attention but ultimately faces objectification and mistreatment

A mess hall, we all in your balling
It's chaotic and messy, and we're all here witnessing your downfall

There's no where to run when the roll is calling
There's no escaping the consequences and responsibilities that come with living a reckless lifestyle

May it be me, cause I flow from within girls
I may be the one causing your downfall, as my words and actions come from my own experiences and observations

Tell me I'm a hoe, drop the stereo and we can flow
Label me as promiscuous if you want, but let go of judgments and let's connect and understand each other on a personal level

Loop like cause this might be magic
Stay in this moment because it holds a sense of enchantment and wonder

Watch it might engulf you and catch your snatch
Be cautious, as it might consume and entrap you in its allure

There it is, what it is
Here it is, the truth or reality of the situation

A house is in the middle of the street
A metaphorical representation of obstacles or challenges in life

To swallow my gift is a feat
Accepting and appreciating my talent or offering is not an easy task

But I hate to see without eyes
I dislike witnessing ignorance or blindness to the truth

When people try to sabotage
When individuals intentionally undermine or hinder my progress

But I'm quite successful at espionage
However, I am skilled at navigating and gathering information discreetly

Try harder man, come on harder
Put in more effort, push yourself to the limits

Cause if you don't, then come on, why bother
If you're not willing to give your best, then there's no point in even trying

You're in my air evaporate at a rate greater than wait
Your presence is suffocating and disappearing faster than expected

I'm changing fate
I am taking control and altering the course of destiny

Hey, look
Pay attention

I made ya look
I caught your attention and made you take notice

Who's in the kitchen cookin' chicken, mama
Who is taking charge and being the leader in this situation, mama

Excuse me baby I don't mean to interrupt
Apologies for the interruption, but I have something important to say

But my mind's corrupt now that you got my interest up
My thoughts and judgments are clouded now that you have piqued my curiosity or fascination

You're best I edit the wish bones before I credit
It would be wise if you modify and revise your expectations before giving them too much significance

Cause I must show my versatility facility
I must demonstrate my adaptability and skill in various areas

Peep me like tom
Observe and examine me closely, like Tom being curious and watching Jerry

Must you, I bust you
Do you have to do this? I will confront and expose you

I smash you into dirt and leave your crew laughin' at ya
I will overpower and humiliate you, leaving your friends laughing and mocking you

I'm coolin' like Laverte
I am calm, relaxed, and composed just like Gerald Levert, a famous R&B singer

You're hurt if I'm leavin' you
You feel pain or distress if I choose to depart from your life

Plot thickens
The situation becomes more complex or mysterious

When reflects is flex like the sex faces
When the mirrors or surfaces show distorted or exaggerated sexual expressions

Into private places
Entering personal or intimate realms

It's me baby
It's me, the one you desire or long for

(Is it you Lu? Really really you?)
(Is that you, Lu? Is it truly and genuinely you?)

Touch me and tell me if it's true
Physically connect with me and confirm if this is real

Did ya miss?
Did you feel a sense of loss or longing when I was not around?

(Yeah, I miss. Did you?)
(Yes, I missed you. Did you feel the same way?)

Then commence to kiss kiss give me sugar
Then let's begin kissing passionately and share some affection

Cause you be the bona fide baby booger
Because you are the genuine and irreplaceable love interest

You know, we go together like a gun and a trigger
We belong together, like the inseparable connection between a gun and its trigger

(Yeah right, then who's this? I can't believe this. I thought I was the world to you. Shit, what is this?)
(Yeah, right. Then who is this other person? I'm shocked and disappointed. I believed I meant everything to you. Damn, what is happening?)

Come on baby, you're trippin' to illusion conclusions
Don't overreact or jump to false conclusions, baby, you're getting carried away by illusions

You think I would want that old broken down car
You really think I would desire and settle for something outdated and worthless?

Now who picks me up when I'm down
Now, who supports and uplifts me when I'm feeling low or defeated?

Come on, who puts a smile on my frown
Come on, who has the ability to turn my sadness into happiness?

Come on who makes mmmm
Come on, who creates pleasurable and satisfying experiences?

(You crazy)
(You're insane)

So then let's blow this joint with God speed
Therefore, let's quickly leave this place with great haste

Cause you know, I've got the remedy for what you need
Because you know, I possess the solution or answer to what you desire

Twelve inches of steel, spinning wheel
A reference to a vinyl record that can bring joy and entertainment

Cause you can't fight the feel when I'm in
Because you cannot resist or deny the pleasure when I am involved

Better turn the volume up to ten, and dim the lights
Increase the intensity and set the mood for a passionate experience

Cause tonight, you're takin' flight
Because tonight, you will experience complete liberation and pleasure

Ah, but the next day somethin' went wrong
However, the following day, something unexpected or unpleasant occurred

Huh, she slipped
Surprisingly, she made a mistake or betrayed me

Found a note, must've fell from her coat
Discovered a note that must have dropped from her pocket or clothing

Said I'll meet you at the Eaton Centre at a quarter to eight
The note mentioned a rendezvous at the Eaton Centre at 7:45 PM

And don't be late
And make sure you arrive on time

Okay, so I thought about the shit that my mind was going through
Alright, so I pondered over the thoughts and emotions that were overwhelming my mind

Took two pills and then called the crew
To alleviate my distress, I consumed two pills and then contacted my group of friends

My crew said "Chill King, we'll fix it, don't sweat it."
My friends assured me to relax and not worry, as they will help resolve the situation

"Bother you? Don't let it."
"Do you want to be bothered by it? Don't let it affect you."

I got it
I understand and I have it under control

But that's what you get
However, that's the consequence or outcome you should expect

Like a need a mostly dream
Like a necessity or desire that often remains just a dream

Like a dream, you sit inside a pit and you fiend
Similar to a dream, you find yourself trapped in a pit and craving for something unattainable

Now pain, pick ax and shovel, I digged and
Now, I experience pain, as if I am digging with a pickax and shovel

I gotta get out, I gotta get out, gotta get out
I have an urgent need to escape and break free from this situation

Of this pit, I'm bigger than her
I am greater and stronger than this difficult circumstance

But my chest is crushed turned to mush
Yet, my heart feels heavy and crushed, almost like it has turned to mush

For real
Honestly, truly

If I ever shot myself it was just to get the feel
If I ever harmed myself, it was only to experience a different sensation or emotion

So suicide was out of the question
Therefore, suicide was never an option for me

Did I mention
Did I already say

I didn't get a tricycle, thanks to Mr. Trojan
I didn't receive protection or safety measures, all thanks to Mr. Trojan (a reference to condoms)

I'd be walking around like these other brothers, trippin'
Otherwise, I would be wandering aimlessly, like other individuals who are confused or lost

Aimlessly, like a record skippin'
Without direction, similar to a record that keeps repeating the same section or skipping

But once bitten twice shy (dry your eye)
However, after being hurt once, you become cautious and reluctant to experience the same pain again (dry your eye refers to stopping tears)

MC's that think I didn't evolve got something comin'
Other rappers who believe I haven't grown and changed are in for a surprise or reckoning

I sleep with words and verbs is my pussy
I have a deep connection and intimacy with words and language, it is my creative outlet

Fattened like a cat, got your tongue you dirty rat
I am confident and satisfied with my abilities, making you speechless and exposing your deceitful nature

There's some wisdom in retreat, think of that
There is wisdom in withdrawing or stepping back from a situation, reflect on that

Your impact is hollow and you follow and submerge
Your influence is shallow, and you blindly follow others and lose your individuality

Now people pull your card, you're livin' on the verge
Now people are exposing your true nature or intentions, you are on the brink of being exposed and losing credibility
