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