XV - Been Dreamin' lyrics
[XV - Been Dreamin' lyrics]
Because I'm in a room full of dreamers
Think about your dream right now
What you think about it and envision it
Now ladies and gentlemen
Let me share something with you
I do not believe that any of us have dreams
That were not given to us for the
Purpose of accomplishing those
Particular dreams
And I want to share something with
You that has changed my life
I started out as a syndicated?
A very humble beginning
I don't know what that dream is that you have
I don't care how far-fetched it
Might appear to bе
I don't care how disappointing
It might have been
As you've been working towards that drеam
But here's what I know
That that dream that you're
Holding in your mind, that it's possible
Let's say that together please
That it's possible
See sometimes we can't say "I can do that"
But what we can say, is that it's possible
I been dreamin' I slipped
Man I been dreamin' I fall
I been dreamin' I tripped
Every time that I call
I been dreamin' of money
I been dreamin' of cars
I been dreamin' of dream girls
That only date stars
I been dreamin' these dreams since
My beginning of living
I been dreamin' of women
Jackpot full of millions
I been dreamin' in day time
They say that I'm tired
I been dreamin' like real
Life is finally expired
I been dreamin' of pitfalls
And fools of fire
I been dreamin' of pitbulls
And wolves and tigers
What's that mean, I wonder
I been dreamin' of snakes
Ain't even seen the jungle
But, I dreamed I was an ape
I dreamed I was a king
I dreamed I was a great
I dreamed I was on time
I dreamed that you would wait
I dreamed I saw the sunrise on top of a lake
How you niggas feel about a villain now
When it's in your building now
When it is your children now
I been in the breeze, Mr freeze
I been chillin' out
Mama hit her knees in the streets
When they wheeled him out
Figured out, life ain't all a dream
Nice ain't all it seems
Wife ain't always queen
Price on all these things
They threw rice, now wife threw wedding ring
Ego bruised, put ice on everything
He went to school
Had a problem with some dudes
Took his shoes
Now he moves with a knife by any means
Cars passing, Broadway where broads casting
Politicking all night like Larry King
Who these little niggas think they is
We just really kids sipping lean
Only dream now of killing things
Mood as fuck
Lose your luck tryna fool with us
We was young bucks but those
Buckshots grew us up
Knew it's tough but diamonds is
Shining through the rough
Come off the ground so polished
It's like my shoes was buffed
Dropped gems like Adam Sandler
Every jewel uncut
Every day's a play, every move is up
They say nothing come to us
Sleeping but a dream
Boy, I had to cut the strings
It wasn't the toughest thing
'cause I'll never be a puppet for the green
Come into the scene like "fuck it
I'm a king what you mean, nigga?"
