SWEET DREAMS
Lil Wayne And Beyonce Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every night I rush to my bed
With hopes that maybe I'll get a chance to see you
When I close my eyes I'm going' outta my head
Lost in a fairytale
Can you hold my hands and be my guide?
And I hope it rains
You're the perfect lullaby
What kinda dream is this?
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you (turn the lights on)
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true (turn the lights on)
My guilty pleasure, I ain't going nowhere
Baby, long as you're here
I'll be floating on air 'cause you're my
You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you (turn the lights on)
Yo, Young Money right here
Bike here, throw it up, no high chair
Cold like a white bear
Freddie Kruger, I'm a rap bitch nightmare
And I'm rich I could buy you
Kill bitches, leave they body in the Bayou
More brain than a IQ
More head than a dread, my yute
And my bank account ain't hardly empty
That's why I come through in a Barbie Bentley
So please mamacita, please no envy
When you come around, it reads "no entry"
Who's next to go?
My flows so flexible
Get gassed and get at me, Texaco
Shoot yourself in the leg, Plexico
White Jag with the twisted lip
I ain't Mike Jack but This is it
Boo boo boo I'm everywhere
You like balloon boy, mama, you was never there
I am the Kung Fu Panda
Fuck all of your blogs, fuck all of your propaganda
Good for the goose then it's good for the gander
Nicki ain't a rapper, Nicki is a brander
Please, you can never compare to me
All these bitches is scared of me
I am who they couldn't even dare to be
So that's all folks (ba da ba dee)
I go hard, pause
Hospital flow, get more gauze
I'm a bad bitch on all fours
The President be like "It's all yours"
Weezy and Nicki bring the A-game, high stats
Go together like Ricky and his eye patch
Go together like a team in the gym
Kareem in the ring, the Queen and the King
Tattoo your name across my heart
So it will remain
Not even death can make us part (No Ceilings)
What kinda dream is this?
You could be a sweet
Kush it out, red bone, pussy, mouth
Eat you up, spit you out
Fuck your girl in your house
I'm terrible, be careful
You might want say a prayer or two
So cold I need Theraflu
I'm so high I need parachutes
I'm error proof, I'm never spooked
Got my coupe, heaven blue
And my flag red as hell, think you're sweet as devils food
I never lose, my weapons use
Fuck with me wrong, shit get ugly, Devin Dude
And she's the queen
Two's a couple, three's a scene
Weezy that nigga that you see in your dreams
Get the pussy wet or be the springs, huh
I'm Easter clean
Shout to my home girl Mika Means
Anything we want we redeem
You niggas gassed up, '93 Supreme
Nicki Minaj is the hardest bitch
More than a artist, bitch
She talk a whole lot of shit
And walk around like she President Carter's bitch
She be on her Barbie shit
And me, I'm on The Carter 6
And I can turn crumbs to bricks
And I can turn nuns to tricks
Young Mula, baby
Fu-fuck your feelings
And this is No Ceilings, yeah
You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you (turn the lights on)
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true (turn the lights on)
My guilty pleasure, I ain't going nowhere
Baby, long as you're here
I'll be floating on air 'cause you're my
You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you (turn the lights on)
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
In Lil Wayne and Beyonce’s song “Sweet Dreams,” the lyrics depict the feeling of being hypnotized by love. Beyonce sings about how she rushes to bed every night hoping to dream about the person she loves. When she dreams of her partner, she feels as if she’s in a fairytale and wants her partner to guide her through it. She refers to her partner as a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare, meaning that even if her love is not always smooth sailing, it is still worth it because her love is genuine. The lyrics suggest that she is willing to give everything she has to this love, even if it means tattooing the person’s name across her heart.
Beyonce’s lyrics use symbolism to describe her feelings of love. The clouds filled with stars represent the feeling of being wrapped in love, a feeling that is comforting and reassuring. She also wants her love to rain down on her, indicating that she wants to be fully immersed in this feeling. Throughout the song, Beyonce uses vivid imagery to symbolize her love and desire for her partner.
Overall, the song is a representation of the power of love and how it can overwhelm a person's senses, so much so that they don't want to wake up from it. The lyrics speak to the almost hypnotic feeling of falling in love and how it can feel like being in a dream.
