Nas, Common - Ghetto Dreams lyrics

Ghetto dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams from the hood

I want a bitch that look good and cook good
Cinderella fancy, but she still look hood
Butt naked in the kitchen flipping pancakes
Plus she trickin' off the dough
That her man makes we got our own handshake
Her titties ain't fake
Fucking in the car cause we just can't wait
To get home
Early in the morn' getting stoned
Pretty with her eyes low, money by her Bible
The type of bitch that BIG
Said he would die for
Is the type that I ride and stay alive for
Tats on her back, looking all tribal
She know shoes like she know survival
Well put together, she weathered the storm
Seen her brother die so forever she's strong
Hear Beyonce's song and she gotta perform
Whether fucking or fighting: we getting it on

Ghetto dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams from the hood

I don't even say shit, she can feel it
Eye talk's the realest, toenails acrylic
Ass is a weapon and it's hard to conceal it
Baby in one arm, the other is a skillet
Fried chicken, macaroni
Raised on the back of Stony
Ghetto Prince, she's my Apollonia
Like chick that had the back of Tony, Montana
Reminded me a me of my, of my mama
Knowing the drama like she know when to joke
Steal a nigga's squares
Not wanting me to smoke
I poke my head out of Benzes
My tweets is the streets that I
Know who my friends is
Endless love for the money, power and clothes
My ghetto housewife watch reality shows
She might get to snapping if
The cabinets ain't closed
When the cameras start snapping
She's ready to pose

Ghetto dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams from the hood

I notice all my flaws when
It comes to writing rhymes
Subject matter be changing too
Quickly at times
So I keep it strictly 'bout dimes
And stick to the story
Call me a pro in the pussy category
Had explicit experiences I shouldn't mention
For me
Getting women turned from sport to addiction
Powerful women playing the
Roles of submission
Lawyers on leashes, congresswomen inflictin'
Pain onto my game, wanted and I'm sadistic
They liked it, they dyked it, devices twisted
'til I get a nice chick
To get me on some nice shit
Crib raising kids
Labrador behind the white fence
But I'm still single, looking for Cleopatra
African Queen, yo look at me, I'm a bachelor
Y'all niggas in trouble
Keep your girls behind closed doors
Cross your fingers
Be happy I haven't chose yours
She love glamour
Bought her Vera Wang sandals
Valentino bags is my etiquette, my manors
Half hood half class, photographers' cameras
Caught us out there, the spotlight
Hope she can handle this she can join me
Red carpet at my next non-profit
Events having sponsored by
Some alcohol product
Jumping out a Bentley with
Some fresh red bottoms
You live your dream with me when
You were just in the projects

Ghetto dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams from the hood
