Blushin' in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink my pen bleed 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 that ass on the front of that Read the article in the magazine, she loved gangsters, nasty things So I'm in the glass house having dreams Good never give it up But anything is possible, if 50 Vivica life's obstacles, found my way through the maze Then joy turned to pain like Beverly and Maze Used to dream of being Hype 'til I was crushed by Dave Mays, let my pen fall asleep on the page yesterday, dozin' off backstage I thought I saw Eazy to Jam Master Jay So I over, heard Jam Master say "It's a hard knock life, you pass away" They say is the cousin of death, so my eyes wide open Cause a is kin to your last breath
in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from my pen bleed Cause Martin King had a (dream) had a (dream), Left Eye had a (dream) So I reached out to and (I brought you all my dreams) (Cause I love you, I you, I love you)
The dream of Huey Newton that's I'm livin' through The dream of Wright, that's what I'm givin you Who walked through the White House without a suit Compton hat, jheri curl drippin on Ronald shoes Mike Lem my demo, came here to pay my dues Started off with Whoo Kid, I start blazin' Clue It was all a dream like Big said be Don't sleep on me homey, I bring nightmares to Rap phenomenon, the rules of gravity Studied all the classics, revisin' my strategy Cause Mathers made it, Curtis Jackson made it Head in the clouds, wonderin' where the Marvin Gaye went How do I say this?

in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from my pen bleed Cause Martin King had a (dream) Aaliyah had a (dream), Eye had a (dream) So I reached out to Kanye and (I you all my dreams) (Cause I you, I love you, I love you)
