1
Yeah, hey, Cole World
2
[Hook:]
3
I got a dollar and a dream
4
That's all a nigga got
5
So if it's bout that cream
6
Then I'm all up in the spot
7
I got a dollar and a dream
8
Just a dollar and a dream
9
[Verse 1:]
10
Walk with a nigga, I give you my pain
11
So much on my mind I wonder how it fit in my brain
12
Scattered thoughts, dark secrets lead me to a blacker heart
13
Life can't get any worse, Stevie with his glasses off
14
Cause I still don't see hope, lookin' for a quick fix
15
When everyone I see is broke, get lost in weed smoke
16
Knowing it make it worse, thoughts roam uncontrollably
17
Barely trustin' niggas, over a decade they been knowin' me
18
Shit, life at the bottom, nobody but God got em
19
They say he wouldn't leave me yet I'm fallin' like it's Autumn
20
Tell me, what do you do just when you're on your last dollar
21
And the stress and this mess you're in can make your ass holla?
22
Do you fold, grow bitter and grow cold?
23
No longer fightin' now the only thing you grow is old
24
Or do you flip that fuckin' dollar to a dream?
25
Whether a scholar or a fiend, watch a pawn become a king
26
Cole!
27
Young nigga with his jeans low
28
Nice guy just got a mean flow
29
Never seen rich but he's seen po'
30
Mr Dolla and a Dream in case you ain't know
31
[Hook:]
32
That's all a nigga got
33
So if it's bout that cream
34
Then I'm all up in the spot
35
I got a dollar and a dream
36
Just a dollar and a dream
37
[Verse 2:]
38
Yeah, armed and ready, you niggas strung out, you spaghetti
39
You paper, confetti, small time, y'all on one, I'm on mine
40
You logged off cause I'm online, small talk from small minds
41
I wanna buy the mall but there ain't shit in this small town
42
This where I get my dough
43
My niggas make sure the money right and then I rip the show
44
I run the town they tried to call me underground
45
I spun around like, you wish
46
Homie my backpack Louis, now watch just how I do this
47
I got the nerds rappin' hard shit, dummies rappin' smart shit
48
Mozart meets Humphrey Bogart with this from the heart shit
49
Play your part, life is but a dream for me
50
I get a flash of nightmares where niggas scheme on me
51
It's hard to see my enemies; who infiltrated my team?
52
I take a step back and notice that things ain't what they seem
53
That's when a nigga refocus, yeah I turn on them high beams
54
I got that red dot waitin', I'm wastin' your whole regime
55
I wish a nigga would, boy you can't out-smart me
56
I let you feel like you the shit, but boy you can't out-fart me
57
You never, have it, I know you want what I got
58
But nigga you ain't me, but you are what I'm not
59
And that's a phony ass, lonely ass, Cole is what you know me as
60
But we far from homies, if you know my mama, you know me
61
If you don't then well I'm sorry, you should get to know Kay
62
Man she been workin' too hard, I should send her a bouquet
63
My goal this year is a real one, gonna stack a million
64
And as soon as I do, mama that 9 to 5 is through
65
And I know I ain't been callin', but I'm thinkin' bout you
66
And all the shit that you been through
67
My girl and then my brother too
68
Cause this life get hard on this road, yeah it's true
69
I don't never tell you how much I be stressin', but I do
70
But I suck it up for who? My fans, and my mans
71
Who probably never ever had this type of lifestyle in they plans
72
Hoppin' in and out of vans, on the buses, on the planes
73
Gettin' brain from a bitch and thinkin' "God damn, what's her name? "
74
Sometimes I just shake my head and tell myself this is a shame
75
And then my other side kick in like "Bitch don't be so fuckin' lame"
76
Dang, what a life, another day, another night
77
At times this shit is all blurry, pray and hope that God heard me
78
Just for those praying for me, man I know that y'all worry
79
But I ain't never failed and you can bet I never will
80
Cole!

91
[Outro:]
92
Hey
93
Cause nigga that's life, and trust me I'm livin'
94
Look what a nigga made out the shit that I was given
95
Look what a nigga made out
96
Look what a nigga made out
97
Got a dollar and a dream
