Dream Chasin'
(专辑: The Swelly Express - 2009)
[Intro: conversation] Alright guys, good shit today as a
label, I
think it went well. Yo, I'm tired as hell! Yea, well you have a
long ass ride home, so you guys can get some sleep on the
bus. Try to. Got that show tomorrow, so make sure you get that rest. Alright, before you miss that bus. The
last one, and I
ain't trying to have you sleep at my house tonight. Iight man peace. Ay check the
plans out. We work hard, I
ain't asking for a
hand out. If I
hit the
booth, I
don't have to pass them grams out. And be the
well, when the
other thoughts ran out. They say they lost words, I
got 'em puzzled like the
crossword. Harvard, I'm nuts, George Washington Carver. But you could never pay a
boss peanuts. If it gets messy, be prepared for the
cleanup. But this thing called success is so strange. Cause you could get notoriety and still ride the
train. Make it in it's entirety, in search for the
fame. But I'm still Michael Phelps, swimming in my lane. Where's Lois, me I'm Superman, I'm just here to save the
day boy. Or at least I
thought I
was. Till I, flew into save her and met my opponent. I'm fighting with myself, don't offer the
condolence. I'm dreaming. [Hook:] We chasing a
dream, so what is life? The
diamonds and the
gleam. Get a
job, well I'm doing it. Promise to stay true in it. Doing it, but never let another soul ruin it. And things ain't what it seem. Make money to spend it, I
got my scheme. Work hard, well we doing it. Promise to stay true in it. Doing it, but never let another soul ruin it. It's too haunting, the
task is daunting. Tryna' get the
labels on board while flaunting. But, let's make some music, make some money, get the
rides. European ties, half models for wives. Sometimes I
feel faded to pretend. Unsafe cause my crib is far from gated in. I'm a
relic, but least likely the
psychedelic. If I
could take off, would you consider me angelic? Hysteric, I'm the
subject and the
predicate. They hating on me, tell me where's the
etiquette. If you could lie, I
don't need to prove I'm better then. I
play David, I'm a
fourth year Letterman. So let em' in, can't you hear me knocking on the
door? Hard to breathe at this altitude, where oxygen is poor. Think Benz, I
don't know what Pontiac means. And this is what happens when an insomniac dreams. [Hook] We chasing a
