Dreams
[Verse 1]
Too many homies wanna play Simon Says
Nobody wanna play Hopscotch
One-step, two-step down a couple blocks
Till they found a brother staring at the top spot
Everything is gorgeous from the Lobby
Everything is lit when you broke
Everything’s enormous when you never had shit
I can almost feel the fame, it’s this close
I be outside like damn n***a
9-5 to shifts got a n***a out the mix
I be watching all the moves on my gram n***a
4G sitting in Atlanta, Dave probably cooling in LA
Phace got a show out in the Bronx
Now we got a trip out to the Bay
I be out at Best Buy selling n***as RAM
And they think that I’m the Best guy for helping spend thеy bands
How the fuck I’m finna get by? N***as need a plan
Of action
Grew up whеre people devoted they motions to trapping
OG’s would die at the hands of the police reactions
No lacking, n***as never cry
Got back to the street like shit ain’t even happen
Back on the sheets got em sleeping on my passion
Trapped with deceased can’t be sleeping in the casket
I can’t waste my life round folk who never seen more than us living in this fashion
Give a little push just to get a little pass it
Pray a n***a not too late
This way of living not too great
All we gotta do is break the locks
On the box and then slip through the gate
[Chorus]
I have a dream
Won’t be the last man to say it and certainly won’t be the first
The person I’m working to constantly be
Has emerged from a circus of hurt
I cried over people who crashed on they mission
And swerved off the road in their search
'Cause that graveyard is really a warehouse for n***as
Who dreams got submerged in the dirt

[Verse 2]
Can’t share visions with n***as who never dreamed
A blind man sight was something I didn't need
Looking through a hubble at the stars
Trying to foresee the future of the team
Like what’s the destination?
Sold out shows thrown in rotations?
Rollout blowing up all of the placements?
Throw out hunnids in celebration?
No doubt running through any phase in this life
Everything is for the taking
Started in the basements, now we sitting in penthouses
Overlooking the squares
Looking at billboards chilling within the air
Looking at billboards thinking I’m gon be there, when the time right
Stops signs really don’t exist for a n***a who’s convinced he’s should shimmer In the limelight
Got my mind right, can’t let dreams in my head get extinguished in the hindsight
I won’t let fear hold back the route placed in my head
Spent me 4 years out in college just to owe them n***as bread
Went from buddied up in study groups to roughly get ahead
To feeling dumber than I would’ve if I just dropped out instead
Now we finally feel that freedom
Got chance for us to live
Me and Nile just hit Cali
Me and Justin running vids
Went from talking with my therapist
To tour bus talks with JID
Mizzy just sent me a text
That said someday we gon be big n***a
[Bridge]
Someday we gon be big
To make it out the crib
I pray that I don’t waste my soul
You never know
You never know
Someday we gon be big
To make it out the crib
I pray that I don’t waste my soul
You never know
You never know

[Chorus]
I have a dream
Won’t be the last man to say it and certainly won’t be the first
The person I’m working to constantly be
Has emerged from a circus of hurt
I cried over people who crashed on they mission
And swerved off the road in their search
Cause the graveyard is really a warehouse for n***as
Who dreams got submerged in the dirt
I have a dream
Won’t be the last man to say it and certainly won’t be the first
The person I’m working to constantly be
Has emerged from a circus of hurt
I cried over people who crashed on they mission
And swerved off the road in their search
Cause the graveyard is really a warehouse for n***as
Who dreams got submerged in the dirt
