YoungstaCPT & Shaney Jay
Dreams Dont Pay Bills
[Intro]
DDPB, YGen, Shaney Jay
(Young Shaney Jay he the plug boy)
[Chorus]
Gotta get paper, dreaming don't pay ya
It's a time waster, but it's a life saver
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Even though you catch me laying down
Doesn't mean that ek is van 'n pos af
Having day dreams, having nightmares in my sleep till I'm sopnat
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
[Verse 1]
Tell how you gonna work through
All this pain and all the hurt too
I always broke in but I learned rules
And stayed up later than my curfew
But thanks for betting on the long shots
We're uneven like the wrong socks
And legendary like the hard rock
But we overslept on our alarm clocks
We are dreamers and we think ahead
I think of what I would have been instead
A college graduate who studied meds
A gang member who'd be shot and dead
It's not sweet no caramel, spinning round on the carousels
Deep fantasies you actually fell, into universes parallel
You thought that you could live up in shell?
But you gonna have to face yourself aswell
You have let them know you have a gift
And show them what's inside your bag of tricks
'Cause no one cares saying your the dopest
If your the only one who really knows it
And cupid shot me with a broken arrow
'Cause I love working when I'm in the shadows
But a lot of motherfuckers clout chase
Thinking rapping is about fame and they downfalling without brakes
From eGoli to Hout Bay
We can't all be the boss bruh, someone's also gotta mop to
And you just hoping that it's not you
Don't allow yourself to be consumed, you...
[Chorus]
Gotta get paper, dreaming don't pay ya
It's a time waster, but it's a life saver
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Even though you catch me laying down
Doesn't mean that ek is van 'n pos af
Having day dreams, having nightmares in my sleep till I'm sopnat
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
[Verse 2]
No relaxing in the silk sheets
But I'm only human so I will sleep
So in nightmares I thrill seek
You got Meek Mills with your milk teeth
Now we didn't have a big feast but I thank God for them split peas
Produced rough like Swizz Beats
So talk shit and I'll lip read
I have lit dreams and they came true
Shaney Jay it's your debut
I don't even need to train you
Just help you level up to stage 2
Meanwhile I can't get sleep, 'cause we aren't living rent-free
Life is filthy Jeffrey Epstein, I'm every landlord's wet dream
Ambitious youngin' run the White House
Colour blind dreams lights out
No longer having insomnia
Counting heart beats on the monitor
And this boy is alive, she saying she mine
It's sounding like Brandy and Monica
It's all about time, she crossing the line
I guess that she got that from foreigners (Haha, laughing just)
Awaken to see the horizon
What I've created is timeless
I can't miss my breakfast, my diet
And I'm not even resting my eyelids
And nothing's the same since I came out
Rapping like I was in Drake's house
I'm dreaming while I am awake now
In Cape Town you...
[Chorus]
Gotta get paper, dreaming don't pay ya
It's a time waster, but it's a life saver
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Dreaming don't pay your (Bills)
Even though you catch me laying down
Doesn't mean that ek is van 'n pos af
Having day dreams, having nightmares in my sleep till I'm sopnat
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
Dreaming don't pay your bills
