I up out that coma 2001 'bout the same time Dre dropped years later the album is done Aftermath presents: Nigga Witta Attitude, One Rap critics politickin, know the outcome to Die, Reasonable Doubt and Doggystyle in one I feel like 'Pac after the Snoop Dogg was done Dre behind that G series and All on Me I watched the death of a dynasty, so I Vibe Magazine Workin' Dr. Dre was a (dream) I had visions of makin a classic, then my world turned Like I was starin' out of Wonder's glasses It's kinda hard to imagine, Kanye West Coming back his fatal accident to beatmaking and rapping But, we the future, Whitney Houston told me And gon' take more than a bullet in the heart to hold me back
Blushin' in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from my pen Cause Luther King had a (dream) had a (dream), Left Eye had a (dream) So I reached out to Kanye and (I you all my dreams) (Cause I love you, I you, I love you)
I had dreams of fuckin' a R&B like Mya When I saw ass on the front of that King Read the article in the magazine, she loved gangsters, loved nasty So I'm in the glass house having nasty Good girls give it up But anything is possible, if 50 fucked Hurdled obstacles, found my way through the maze Then joy turned to pain like Beverly and Maze to dream of being Unsigned Hype 'til I was crushed by Dave Mays, almost let my pen fall on the page Daydreamin' yesterday, dozin' off I thought I saw Eazy to Jam Master Jay So I over, heard Jam Master say "It's a hard life, then you pass away" They say sleep is the cousin of death, so my eyes wide Cause a dream is kin to last breath
in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from my pen bleed Cause Martin Luther had a (dream) had a (dream), Left Eye had a (dream) So I out to Kanye and (I brought you all my dreams) (Cause I love you, I you, I love you)
The dream of Huey Newton that's what I'm livin' The dream of Eric Wright, what I'm givin you Who walked through the House without a business suit Compton hat, jheri curl drippin on Ronald shoes Gave Mike Lem my demo, came to pay my dues Started off with Whoo Kid, then I start Clue It was all a dream like Big said be Don't on me homey, I bring nightmares to reality Rap phenomenon, defyin' the of gravity Studied all the classics, start my strategy Cause Mathers made it, Curtis Jackson made it Head in the clouds, wonderin' the hell Marvin Gaye went How do I say this? I'm for my son But I can't figure out, why I'm at my temple with gun Wake up to a Jesus like a catholic nun The war to be a rap legend, has begun
Blushin' in this 40 ounce, the ink from my pen bleed Cause Martin King had a (dream) Aaliyah had a (dream), Eye had a (dream) So I out to Kanye and (I brought you all my dreams) (Cause I love you, I love you, I you)
