Dreamin'
(专辑: Return Of 4eva - 2011)
Olds school flow, Yo, yo, yo, yo They used to say They used to say This rap shit They used to say (He's dreamin) They used to say (He's dreamin) This rap shit (is not for real) This rap shit (is not for real) They used to say (He's dreamin) They used to say (He's dreamin) This rap shit (is not for real) This rap shit (is not for real) [Verse 1: Big K.R.I.T] Yeah I
remember it so clearly Rapping to my pop about the
cars and the
clothes Shrimp and the
lobster that I
heard about Like word of mouth The
UGK tape and Scarface will turn ya out I
was like 13 thirsting for a
good beat Scoping for a
studio talking bout I
spit heat Like Ball & G, on that pimp type shit 36 had me crunk on that late night tip [Hook:] They say (He's dreamin) They used to say (He's dreamin) This rap shit (is not for real) This rap shit (is not for real) They used to say (He's dreamin) They used to say (He's dreamin) This rap shit (is not for real) This rap shit (is not for real) [Verse 2: Big K.R.I.T] I
played ball for a
minute, did I
mention wasn't in it Writing rhymes on my glove so I
will never forget em Had to quit it, didn't feel it back in high school Rather write poems, known for flowing, that's what I
do Couldn't be little Zac forever, peace to my big brother Follow ya dreams baby, that's word to my grandmother When I
hear the
streets tapping, my beats kicking my flow I
overhear the
same shit they always say before (he's dreaming) [Hook] [Verse 3: Big K.R.I.T] I
told them call me KRIT, they told me change my name Don't be alarmed if you don't make it, that's just part of the
game Besides I
ain't rapping about dope nor did I
sell it I
guess the
story of a
country boy just ain't compelling A&R's searching for a
hit, I
just need a
meal Couldn't afford to pay the
rent, but passed up on the
deal Cause, it wasn't right sometimes you gotta wade the
storm In a
class of my own, but I
was scared to raise my arm Like, this my dream, this my life, I
sacrificed it all Except my soul in the
firm belief there is a
God Watching out, when all the
others used to doubt Felt my pain and pointed down and said "Son, your time is now" I
think my grandma pulled some strings on the
low That's between her and the
lord I'll ever know For those that caught me in the
Spin, in Complex magazine, XXL, the
Vibe and whatever inbetween It's safe to say that dreams come true I
guess Don't let nobody tell ya, try for yourself Just know that I
was once considered just a
dreamer But I
paid my dues and turned so many doubters to believers They used to say They used to say They used to say They used to say He's dreamin, he's dreamin, it's not for real, it's not for real He's dreamin, he's dreamin, it's not for real, it's not for real I
don't care if it is a
dream, I've got to believe in something I
love What can I
do, what have I
got to lose You know sometimes dreams do come true Might as well be a
dream, dream, dream
