I woke up out coma 2001 the same time Dre dropped 2001 Three years later the album is presents: Nigga Witta Attitude, Volume One Rap critics politickin, wanna the outcome Ready to Die, Reasonable and Doggystyle in one I feel like 'Pac after the Dogg trial was done Dre behind G series and All Eyez on Me I watched the death of a dynasty, so I Vibe Magazine with Dr. Dre was a (dream) I had visions of makin a classic, my world turned black I was starin' out of Stevie Wonder's glasses It's kinda to imagine, like Kanye West Coming back from his accident to beatmaking and rapping But, we the future, Whitney Houston told me And it's gon' take than a bullet in the heart to hold me back
Blushin' in 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 reached out to Kanye and (I you all my dreams) (Cause I you, I love you, I love you)
I had dreams of fuckin' a R&B like Mya When I saw that ass on the front of King the article in the magazine, she loved gangsters, loved nasty things So I'm in the house having nasty dreams Good never 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 to dream of being Unsigned Hype 'til I was crushed by Dave Mays, almost let my pen fall 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 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 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)
The dream of Huey Newton that's what I'm livin' The dream of Wright, that's what I'm givin you Who walked through the White without a business suit Compton hat, jheri curl drippin on Reagan's 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 it'd be Don't sleep on me homey, I nightmares to reality Rap phenomenon, defyin' the of gravity Studied all the classics, start my strategy Cause Marshall Mathers 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 with this gun Wake up to a Jesus piece a catholic nun The war to be a rap legend, has begun
Blushin' in this 40 ounce, 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)
