Trip Lee, Natalie Lauren - Fantasy lyrics

We're living in la, la, la, la, la, la, land
We're living in la, la, la, la, la, la, land
We're living in la, la, la, la, la, la, land
We're living in la, la, la, la, la, la, land

You're tryna live the dream, ain't ya?
The cream, esteem, supreme paper
You're thinkin' this the place to be
Like green acres
Look, you're livin' a dream and
I can't even wake
I know you want the life that they all desire
Wanna rise till you can't
Imagine climbin' higher
But that ladder can't stand
When it catches fire
And when it stops, you'll be shocked
Like electric wires
It's cool to like fairytales
Until you try to live inside of 'em
That's where we fail


The media pushin' death and they
Do it very well
Man, who woulda thought that obituaries sell?
Look, you're livin' in a dream
Open up your eyes
Things ain't always what they seem
Reality ain't always what we found
Up on the screen
They got bait, in they hooks, they
Got rhymes full of schemes, it's fantasy
Fantasy, masquerades and mansions
(all they want is that fantasy)
Smokin' lies
But there is never light within us
The smiles full of envy
A full house that's empty
Once the night is up, it's never enough

Your imagination's runnin' wild
Your main goal is to stack
A couple hundred thou
Then mo' money, plus you want it now
You be huntin' for them hundreds
Till you run 'em down
Plus you want chicks, wanna pick or choose
She gotta be a freak
Not just any chick will do
That's the story that you stickin' to
Listen dude just know the fable that they
Told you really isn't true
Hey mami, you think you want that life
Don't you? See you're that fine dame all
The brothers droolin' over
But, you should know your beauty
Will be movin' over
When He cracks the sky like a supernova
To expose us i ain't runnin' game
I ain't got nothing to gain
'Bout lyin' to you 'bout this life
But something is strange
If the highest joy is found in created things
Instead of something greater but I
Gotta make a claim, it's fantasy

Fantasy, masquerades and mansions
(all they want is that fantasy)
Smokin' lies
But there is never light within us
(it's crazy) the smiles full of envy
A full house that's empty (it's all empty)
Once the night is up, it's never enough

Never satisfied
You know, we been livin' in a dream world
A dream world where we been
Chasin' the wrong things
But my prayers is our eyes will open
So we can see it all for what it is
Welcome to the real world
With it's real treasure, real pearls
Those who try to gain the
World only lose souls
And chasin' fools goals only
Gets ya fools gold
Well, welcome to the good life
With it's real joy
Now that old life seems like a killjoy
It's ironic that the life giver was killed
Boy he rose and He chose me
You know he fills a real void
We were made to be connected
To the life giver
To build our life around Him
With His life in us
But our pride likes to rise, them lies get us
They separate us from the good
We despise scripture
But we can turn back to the forever source
The One who can't be
Described by my metaphors even if I'm poor
I'm rich if I let Him set the course
At His right hand, the
Pleasure's forever more, yeah

Fantasy, masquerades and mansions
(we don't have to live in that fantasy)
Smokin' lies
But there is never light within us
(yeah, yeah) the smiles full of envy
A full house that's empty
(we don't have to be empty, y'all)

Once the night is up, it's never enough
(cause Jesus is enough)
We're living in la, la, la, la, la, la, land
We're living in la, la, lie, la, la, la, land
And you gon' see it all for what it is
I pray you'll see it all for what it is
