Luyện nghe bài hát Big Dreams In The City

(Verse 1: Orelias)

I this was it, since 93
Im bout big dreams in the city
See corners theyre on the block
store, selling rocks.
Absent father in my life but I out aite.
my best friend at the time in 99.
Thats 99 but Im fine
The inner youth in Bayview wants to survive.
Never was a book student, number of times
Didnt the honors, watching my grades drop
I wanted everything that was in
When my momma was in with two
As a boy wanted a Gameboy
Finally got it, changing to color
My life again, moms introduced another man
A young man adjusting to grown man, Im bad at math.
Looking back on the past, school came and past.
In a sense, lost my cause

(Hook)

The is mine. Top back, California sunshine
Same place where I stayed on my
Mama me I was destined to shine
Yea Im destined to
The city is mine. Top back, California
Same place I stayed on my grind
Mama me I was destined to shine
With big in the city

(Verse 2: Orelias)

Fuck people say, high school wasnt fun
I Mr. Popular or popular opinion.
I was cool; often it hurt to so much.
Transferred schools in 9th grade, I didnt much
A peg trying to fit in some boxes, plus
I tried out for JV, guess who got
Like the girls who give me time of day
themselves, I spoke my mind.
Who cares, to them I was always or mad
Walking into like somebody died.
Taking stretches to master that I rhymed.
paid attention to lectures, not one time
Word is I caught A.D.D; plus I money
I did a of selling weed; looked around realizing it wasnt me
My life became a tug of war, so many pulling for me.
I'm just we got to see eye to eye
Because rejected, is what makes I, I

(Verse 3: Orelias)

Fast foreword 09, in due time
I had a 12-inch PowerBook; that was a hammy
Recorded into it, after I wrote my raps
It was so old, in a few weeks. A week is all I need
Found Jay B and writing to his beats
A true in every essence, digging different sounds
Searching for samples that turn my life around
Its feeling motivated, amongst the lack of response
The month made a demo with used beats and instrumentals.
Matter of fact it was instrumental, I had I hustled for
Wanting to but never knew when
A few were supposed to come through.
Never did, to my vision
12th came, barely passed to graduate
Spiting a verse from We On, tearing up the stage.
Im on now; all I to do is make you proud.
big dreams in the city

(Hook)
