2
I got a dollar and a dream
3
That's all a nigga got
4
So if it's bout that cream
5
Then I'm all up in the spot
6
I got a dollar and a dream
7
Just a dollar and a dream
8
Cole
9
Walk with a nigga, I give you my pain
10
So much on my mind I wonder how it fit in my brain
11
Scattered thoughts, dark secrets lead me to a blacker heart
12
Life can't get any worse, Stevie with his glasses off
13
'Cause I still don't see hope, lookin' for a quick fix
14
When everyone I see is broke, get lost in weed smoke
15
Knowing it make it worse, thoughts roam uncontrollably
16
Barely trustin' niggas, over a decade they been knowin' me
17
Shit, life at the bottom, nobody but God got em
18
They say he wouldn't leave me yet I'm fallin' like it's Autumn
19
Tell me, what do you do just when you're on your last dollar
20
And the stress of this mess you're in can make your ass holla?
21
Do you fold, grow bitter and grow cold?
22
No longer fightin' now the only thing you grow is old
23
Or do you flip that fuckin' dollar to a dream?
24
Whether a scholar or a fiend, watch a pawn become a king
25
Cole!
26
[Chorus]
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
That's all a nigga got
32
So if it's bout that cream
33
Then I'm all up in the spot
34
I got a dollar and a dream
35
Just a dollar and a dream
36
Yeah, armed and ready, you niggas strung out, you spaghetti
37
You paper, confetti, small time, y'all on one, I'm on mine
38
You logged off cause I'm online, small talk from small minds
39
I wanna buy the mall but there ain't shit in this small town
40
This where I get my dough
41
My niggas make sure that money right and then I rip the show
42
I run the town they tried to call me underground
43
I spun around like, you wish
44
Homie my backpack Louis, now watch just how I do this
45
I got the nerds rappin' hard shit, dummies rappin' smart shit
46
Mozart meets Humphrey Bogart with this from the heart shit
47
Play your part, life is but a dream for me
48
I get a flash of nightmares where niggas scheme on me
49
It's hard to see my enemies, who infiltrated my team?
50
I take a step back and notice that things ain't what they seem
51
That's when a nigga refocus, yeah I turn on them high beams
52
I got that red dot waitin', I'm wastin' your whole regime
53
I wish a nigga would, boy you can't out-smart me
54
I let you feel like you the shit, but boy you can't out-fart me
55
You never, have it, I know you want what I got
56
But nigga you ain't me, but you are what I'm not
57
And that's a phony ass, lonely ass, Cole is what you know me as
58
But we far from homies, if you know my mama, you know me
59
If you don't then well I'm sorry, you should get to know Kay
60
Man she been workin' too hard, I should send her a bouquet
61
My goal this year is a real one, gonna stack a million
62
And as soon as I do, mama that nine to five is through
63
And I know I ain't been callin', but I'm thinkin' bout you
64
And all the shit that you been through
65
My girl and then my brother too
66
'Cause this life get hard on this road, yeah it's true
67
I don't never tell you how much I be stressin', but I do
68
But I suck it up for who? My fans, and my mans
69
Who probably never ever had this type of lifestyle in they plans
70
Hoppin' in and out of vans, on the buses, on the planes
71
Gettin' brain from a bitch and thinkin' "God damn, what's her name?"
72
Sometimes I just shake my head and tell myself this is a shame
73
And then my other side kick in like "Bitch don't be so fuckin' lame"
74
Dang, what a life, another day, another night
75
At times this shit is all blurry, pray and hope that God heard me
76
Just for those praying for me, man I know that y'all worry
77
But I ain't never failed and you can bet I never will
78
Cole!
79
[Chorus]
80
Hey
81
'Cause nigga that's life, and trust me I'm livin'
82
Look what a nigga made out the shit that I was given
83
Look what a nigga made out
84
Look what a nigga made out
85
Got a dollar and a dream
86
