What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Its not me exactly, that touches people
2
Its what I represent
3
The possibility that dreams long ago, may still come true
4
Even if they look lost forever
5
I had a homie named Tony, 16, 6'2
6
Headed to the NBA straight from high school
7
My nigga had his ball game on lock
8
But at the same time he was in love wit the block
9
All the stuff that came wit it, the drugs and the guns
10
The gangs, the slang, and all the funds
11
He just got a letter of intent from the Cavaliers
12
Sayin' how they love'em and they wish he was there
13
He had it made like special-ed, about to get the bread
14
But chose to do somethin' dumb instead
15
Go to war wit the crew on the other side of town
16
And was mo ready, and Tony got laid down
17
He ain't even have a chance
18
Died for the ambulance even got to'em
19
So many went through'em
20
I hate ta tell the story but that's how it is
21
Growin' up in the hood as a kid
22
[Chorus: x2]
23
When you got big dreams,
24
Don't listen to what nobody say
25
And don't let nobody turn you away
26
When you got big dreams,
27
Keep ya eyes on the prize don't fall to the way side
28
I know a girl name Gina
29
That was a hell of a singer
30
And everybody fell in love wit her when they seen her
31
Baby girl was on a verge of signing a big deal
32
18, and life looked so-so real
33
She was stuck wit a dude that was all bad news
34
And all he ever did was give baby the blues
35
But she was true to a nigga
36
Do for a nigga
37
Pop you and ya whole crew for a nigga
38
One night he came picked her up, told her lets ride
39
That's the same night that he watched her die
40
They was trying to hit a lick, but the lick hit back
41
Put a end ta the deal, and all of that
42
She ain't even have to be there, he know it wasn't right
43
Now he gotta deal wit for the rest of his life
44
And the part I don't like, he ain't even get grazed
45
But the home girl Gina, is layin' in the grave
46
[Chorus]
47
I got a few relatives that give the family drama
48
Always got they hand out when they see me and my momma
49
One could of been a doctor, the other a chef
50
But when he got his own kitchen he was cookin' something else
51
Now his life in the drain
52
A trifling shame
53
He all washed up
54
Wife took everything
55
No car, no mo, no house
56
And everywhere he go he stole, so they throwed him out
57
I was growin' lookin' up to be like them
58
Now I''m throwin' up cash, rollin' up in a Bent
59
I was stuck wit a dream I had as a shortie
60
I'll be damned if I let another man support me
61
Now, uncle June Buck sit, skinny as hell
62
He got AIDS in his body from the needles he shared
63
Every time he get his welfare checks,he don't care
64
If you want to see him got to the crack house, he there
65
[Chorus]
66
When you got big dreams [Repeat: x4]
67
Keep ya eyes on the prize, don't fall tot the way side
