Lyrics
Ooh
I put my dreams out on display
For all y'all to listen to
Dabbed out a hit or two
Specifically the hit the booth
Outlined and bullet proof
Facts tight - none in dispute
Lied bout - but still it's truth
Y'all cry bout them fakin news
I keep scripture to replenish you
While you hide behind soft interviews
Craftin out how the winners lose
Justifyin the dyin in a bidness suit
Fakin captions and pictures
Of life lived out in a soundbite
It might not be a great life
But man don't it sound tight
Day came, now you live in light
Schemes die cause you ain't livin right
Memes lie - but - you givin likes
Cause you live life in the interbytes
Of electrical stimulation, pornographic penetration
Got ya brain trapped in amazin but you stuck out in a maze
And the breeze way to a vacation from all the bullshit that you been facin
Got your heart mind body racin - for a brand new situation
My dreams are supposed to take me away from you - ooh
My dreams are supposed to take me away from you - ooh
Endulged in some of dat doja
Like I suspect somebody told ya
So I expect that if I had know'd you
From way back before I got olda
You would expect - I flow my shit colda
And damn right - upgraded my folder
Here I sit - spit serious shit
Givin examples of things that I told ya - homey
Much bolda homey - time is on me
Been some places got phases on me
Livin though some times and some phases homey
Adventure through dementia keep erasin homeys
Family lonely - mom disowned me - left me only
God had his eyes and his arms upon me
Brought me to the spirits who were chosen for me
Now I dream a dream - better than I ever woulda dreamed to dream
It's a crazy thing - spectacular
How God came through miraculous
My dreams are supposed to take me away from you - ooh
My dreams are supposed to take me away from you - ooh
See my dreams is like a transport
Back packed ready for jansport
Trek the life monumental
Lead life with one instrumental
Flow note for note
Let the people know it's not coincidental
Cause the 70's was melody
A friend of mine kept tellin me
Generationally I'm X to the felony
**** they betta be betta than a betta me
Not likely so put yo bet on me
You can keep that shit - your jealousy
It'll end your present state - presently.
