Blueprint - Dream Big lyrics
[Blueprint - Dream Big lyrics]
It started with four of us
Me, Man, Warren and Bus
Labels wasn't linin' up
Nobody was signin' us fuck 'em
Not a problem, got a lot of grind in us
To validate the talent that these
Cowards couldn't find in us
Didn't think twice when the game
Wasn't kind to us knew deep inside we was as
Nice as Mr rogers was
But hard to reconcile what my life was on
Uninspired by my job and tired
Of ridin' the bus
Couldn't find the time to write
So inside I would cuss
Then later that night the MPC got fired up
Make tapes then place 'em
Somebody buy 'em up
Make a name and visualize us climbin' up
The rhymes much more than
Words thrown together
It personifies guys tryin' to grow together
Against all odds like they
Didn't know no better
Some let go, other holdin' on forever
But it seems so far away
Especially when you wanna have it all today
So the kids can have a yard to play
And we ain't gotta grind till we old and gray
Since he was a kid he would dream big
Now those dreams he had don't seem big
Cause he appreciate how real the dream is
And how much of his dream he's lived
This is his true life story
The rhyme glory, the shoebox money
Dudes who remove all due props from me
You can do what you wanna do
If you got enough money
With chicks you only stick if you not ugly
That give ends to his friends
Try to fuck 'em
At his house unannounced try to bug him
On the scrotum
But on the totem ain't nothin' above him
Beyond your palms, y'all can't touch him
Your bars is off, your car plans stunted
Your arm is small, y'all don't want it
His army's small, but on some 300
We can re-run it
But the good times keep comin'
Streets buzzin' like a 100 honey bees hummin'
Naw cousin none of your beats bumpin'
You're weak and borin' like the
Sight of Yao Ming dunkin'
Another weak sucker, bitin' his steez
Frontin' but he paralyze parasites and
Leave 'em buggin'
You ain't even from the streets cousin
If so you know he never
Been terrorized by mean muggin'
He don't believe somethin'
Until he sees somethin'
He told moms he would grow
Up and be somethin'
So she ain't gotta see her seed strugglin'
So stop it right now is
Your side of the di-scussion
