Dreamin'
Lil Keke Lyrics

Dreamin, Dreamin
Repeating the phrase to convey a sense of longing and desire

uh I want you, I want you
Expressing the desire to be with someone

come on yea I want you
Urging the other person to fulfill that desire

I want you come on yeah
Reiterating the desire for the other person

I ain't gon' lie girl it must be somethin bout you
Acknowledging that something about the person has caught the artist's attention

cause we ain't knew each other long and you already my boo
Noting that the relationship has progressed quickly

I like your style you try to be mad, I make you smile
Appreciating the other person's nature and how they react to the singer

you lay up under my arms like a new born child
Describing physical intimacy and closeness with the other person

I'm thinking back to my teenage love, my teenage life
Reflecting on past relationships and experiences

how I use to say that I ain't gon' do this twice
Recalling a past promise to not repeat certain mistakes

but I'm a man now it can't get better or worse
Acknowledging personal growth and maturity

and I know its hard to understand that my baby is first
Stating that the artist's child is their main priority

but I got family to provide for, put shit aside for
Explaining the singer's responsibilities and priorities

you know its people in the world I'd die for
Asserting that the singer has strong loyalty and connections

so what's you're plan?, I'm not a full time man
Asking the other person's intentions and clarifying their own limitations

but its alright sugar so let you're feelings hang out
Encouraging honesty and openness

cause when I'm diggin deep inside I know you like it a lot
Describing intimacy and a mutual affection

I got this thug passion to put you in the mood
Expressing a sense of personal confidence and allure

and then you hear my cell ring, you catchin a attitude
Showing the impact of external circumstances on the relationship

lets set da record straight you knew what it was from da start
Clarifying the nature of the relationship and the expectations involved

and I'm just the typa nigga that'll mess up ya heart
Acknowledging the artist's reputation and suggesting a cautionary approach

we spent nights together, we took flights together
Recalling shared experiences with the other person

and if I wanted to see the world you was down for whatever
Noting the other person's willingness to accommodate the singer

I'm ya lover man, can't be ya other man
Clarifying the nature of the relationship and rejecting the idea of infidelity

ain't no tellings when you ain't gon' find another man
Suggesting that the other person may struggle to find someone else like the singer

I'm a be dreamin so won't you please come true
Expressing a sense of longing and desire for the other person

cause everytime I close my eyes I swear I see you, dreamin
Emphasizing the powerful impact the other person has on the singer

Lets get ya mind right cause I'm on another page
Encouraging the other person to adjust their mentality and expectations

looking for quaility time I live on the stage
Explaining the artist's priorities and lifestyle

that's ya stress look I want ya best look
Encouraging the other person to focus on their own well-being

you gotta man so you need to kick back
Respecting the other person's existing relationship and boundaries

and you said ya really love him ain't nothin wrong wit dat
Acknowledging and respecting the other person's feelings for their partner

so what's the deal? with the sad thing, the mad thing?
Asking the other person to communicate their emotions and concerns

you needa chill, relax, and be cool up on da real
Encouraging the other person to stay calm and rational

keep ya head focused so you know what it is
Advising the other person to maintain clarity and understanding of the situation

but you been down for a minute tho you ain't da average ho
Acknowledging the other person's loyalty and dedication

ain't no need to lie its gon' be hard to let you go
Expressing the emotional difficulty of ending the relationship

lets take it slow and not to fast girl this is thug world
Encouraging a gradual approach to the relationship

chocolate, and vanilla that's a hell of a swirl
Noting and appreciating differences between the singer and the other person

holdin hands up on the beach you use to love that shit
Recalling a past shared experience and showing affection for the other person

shoppin sprees in New york you know we stayed in a mink
Recalling another shared experience with luxury and indulgence

you doin 9-to 5, you know I do it live
Acknowledging different lifestyles and commitments

and when you layin down and sick that's when I come beside
Showing concern and care for the other person

this ain't no perfect match and it might not happen
Acknowledging the challenges and potential obstacles in the relationship

just to give it to you straight I'm in love wit rappin
Explaining the artist's passion and dedication to their craft

that's alright though I'm tryna get mo
Expressing ambition and desire for growth

I made my way up to the front, and out the back do'
Asserting the singer's success and accomplishments

and just to let you know that I'm still the same
Reassuring the other person that the artist's personality and character remain the same

we was friends from the start it ain't gon' never change,dreamin
Emphasizing the foundation of the relationship and indicating a sense of permanence

If this is a dream please come true
Repeating the opening lines to underscore the desire for the other person

cause when I close my eyes
Indicating the power of imagination and longing

I see you(I see you)
Stating the visual impact and importance of the other person
