I woke up out that coma 'bout the same time Dre dropped Three years later the album is Aftermath Nigga Witta Attitude, Volume One Rap critics politickin, wanna know the Ready to Die, Reasonable Doubt and in one I feel like 'Pac the Snoop Dogg trial was done Dre that G series and All Eyez on Me I watched the death of a dynasty, so I told Magazine with Dr. Dre was a (dream) I had visions of a classic, then my world turned black Like I was starin' out of Wonder's glasses It's kinda hard to imagine, like West Coming back from his fatal accident to and rapping But, we the future, Whitney Houston told me And it's take more than a bullet in the heart to hold me back
in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from 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 you, I love you, I love you)
I had of fuckin' a R&B bitch like Mya I saw that ass on the front of that King Read the article in the magazine, she loved gangsters, nasty things So I'm in the house having nasty dreams Good girls give it up But anything is possible, if 50 fucked life's obstacles, found my way through the maze Then joy turned to pain like Frankie Beverly and Used to dream of Unsigned Hype 'til I was crushed by Mays, almost let my pen fall asleep on the page Daydreamin' yesterday, off backstage I I saw Eazy talking to Jam Master Jay So I walked over, heard Jam say "It's a hard knock life, you pass away" say sleep is the cousin of death, so my eyes wide open Cause a dream is kin to last breath
Blushin' in 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from my pen bleed Martin Luther King had a (dream) Aaliyah had a (dream), 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 of Eric Wright, that's what I'm givin you Who walked the White House without a business suit Compton hat, curl drippin on Ronald Reagan's shoes Mike Lem my demo, came here to pay my dues Started off with Kid, then I start blazin' Clue It was all a dream like Big said be Don't sleep on me homey, I nightmares to reality Rap phenomenon, the rules of gravity Studied all the classics, revisin' my strategy Cause Marshall Mathers made it, Jackson made it Head in the clouds, wonderin' where the hell Marvin Gaye How do I say I'm livin' 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, lettin' the ink 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 you, I love you, I love you)
