lyrics

[Lauren Fisher] Ad-Libs. . .

[Blak Smith] The realists wonder how I dream
What do he be on?
Light headed anesthetic when that beat be on
I put my Elzhi on
I get my T3 on
Shout out to V-V-Villa in dey tepee homes (Yup)
I do it to the death see my 3-Piece on
Then I take it back to Africa
Get my Louis Leakey on
Psychedelic trippin' when my EP on
Apologies fell asleep with the TV on
Wake up young boy!
Did you apply for this?
And you came so far
Did you arrive for this?
I'd die for this
Straight fly for this
My dreams are just over the hor-i-zon
But I'm alive to spit it
It's my curse but wha'ts worse like a hearse
I'm dying to get it
The right mind I'm in it
To outshine the gimmicks
Chasing my dreams about a mile a minute
Just let me dream

[Chorus]
I gotta get to my dreams [3x]
Nah you can't stop me
Gotta, gotta, gotta
Homie you can't stop me [Repeat]

I carry a condition with no cure
A hopeless dreamer
I'm so sure that I'll acheive all that I work for
I see the very thing that I hope for
Right within arms reach
Found what I searched for
Nay-sayers steady saying I can't do it
But I gotta' certain goal and my mind set to it
Hard times hittin' I'ma glide right through it
Some of y'all didn't think I'd win but I knew it
Grind so heavy that I push a forklift
And I'm so ready to amass more chips
And I'ma go all out
Never forfeit
Can't stop me I got plenty moves to score with
Top throttle in the fast lane floor it
Feel like I might sprout wings to soar with
Elevated I'ma reach my star
My on top ain't far
Homie I'ma get it all
I'ma dream

[Chorus]

Have you ever had a ambition?
Have you ever had a vision?
Of what you thought your life should be?
Have you ever had a mission
Doing numbers like a statistrician
Selling records while you rapping diction
Or rap addiction
You can't help it you gotta spit
Plus these other niggas is whack
They lack conviction (Ey)
You ever had somebody tell you
You couldn't?
Nay-Sayer, Player Hater, Al Queda to your dreams
Well this song dedicated to you
The crack baby that they swore would never make it to two
But you're 18 now
Got a diploma doing great things wow
I guess they underestimated the glue
That held you together
The ghetto decimated your crew
With the same thing they killed Brandon
Lee from the Crow but you're still standing
Being that you knot that your whole family
Is behind you telling you know
But you gotta

[Chorus]

[Phenom] When I say dream
I don't mean Hakeem or the dude that sings
Martin Luther King what I mean when I dream
I mean like when my tenth grade english teacher took me out the honors class because she didn't consider me to be a writer
Well I wrote my wrongs and they turned into songs
So give me ten years you'll be teachin yo students about my work
Mom & pops thanks for the track shoes in my DNA I now follow my dreams like it's GPS on the back of my eyelids
For my brothers and my sistas you can't walk with out legs or stand with out a spine, so thanks for backing me up
And dream Cold Men Young
Pellz the glue to the group
Blak the engine on our ride to the top
Mic Write the pen to our paper
I love yall niggaz
2k10 the year of the coldest men lo fish take us home
