[Intro]
It was days when I dreamed I'd have a life like this, damn
Ooh, yeah, yeah, oh, whoa
It's ups and it's downs, it's highs and it's lows (Oh)
They'll love when you you on (Oh), they'll leave you when you broke

[Verse 1]
Have you ever had a dream so big (So big, yeah, yeah, so big)
N***as laugh at you
I never thought I'd a crib like this (Like this, like this)
I had to make it happen, yeah
Nothin' lasts forever, but my love still remains ('Mains)
Eighty-dollar plates, crab legs and chow mein (Mein)
I don't touch shit 'til all of my bills paid (For real)
I'm workin' on bein' a better father, shit crazy (Crazy)
I'm workin' on tryna get my mind out the game (Off the dribble)
It's so much more to life, you just gotta change (For real)
If Jay-Z did it (Yeah), shit, I can do the same (Yeah)
You can hear it in my voice (Yeah), I really been through some pain
I thought if I signed a deal (Yeah), I could make it out the streets
Bought my mom a big house (Yeah), that was one of my main dreams
But on the real, n***a (Ayy), they ain't give a fuck about me
But much to Quinn Coleman (Yeah), he been rockin' with a G (What's happenin'?)
I took notes from my pops, that's how I lasted in these streets
Just get your money up (Yeah) and don't be worried 'bout the beef
Buy some pre-cut food and take my bitch to the beach
And take the Air Max off (Yeah) and toss the Crocs on my feet
[Chorus]
It was days when I dreamed I'd have a life like this, damn
(Ooh, yeah, yeah, oh, whoa)
It's ups and it's downs, it's highs and it's lows (Oh)
They'll love when you you on (Oh), they'll leave you when you broke

[Post Chorus]
I figured
If I take a chance, you know I could win
You know?
Take chances, you gotta get uncomfortable sometimes

[Verse 2]
Who ever would have thought that I would move to LA (Move to LA)
Trap for a year then move back to The Bay? (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
Fell off at eight months, the bounce back was crazy (Crazy)
But if you didn't know me much, you probably thought I was gravy (Thought I was gravy)
Wakin' up in Beverly Hills, I feel the thrill (Thrill)
Penthouse suite, champagne on refill ('Fill)
I just didn't have that much time, but she was real (Real)
Met her in the club, that night, we sealed the deal
(Yeah, let's do something different tonight, baby)
On the balcony wit' it (Balcony wit' it)
She was goin' super crazy, I might just leave this in
Goin' hard for eight months, woke up, I was rich (Damn)
First n***a from the point with a view like this (What's happenin'?)
[Chorus]
It was days when I dreamed I'd have a life like this, damn
(Ooh, yeah, yeah, oh, whoa)
It's ups and it's downs, it's highs and it's lows (Oh)
They'll love when you you on (Oh), they'll leave you when you broke

[Outro]
Yeah, you know
When you really come from the mud
They don't wanna give you a try
Dedication
Man
Free money
Yeah, yeah
Off the dribble
