1
Dreamed of you this morning
2
Then came the dawn, and I thought
3
you were here with me
4
If you could only see
5
How much I love you
6
That's all that's all that's all baby
7
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
8
I never felt that before
9
But there's always....
10
That's all that's all...
11
This is the shit you dream about
12
with the homie steamin' out
13
Back-back-backing them Beemer's out
14
Seems as our plans to get a grant
15
Then go off to college, didn't pan or even out
16
We need it now, we need a town
17
We need a place to pitch, we need a mound
18
For now, I'm just a lazy boy
19
Big dreaming in my La-Z-Boy
20
In the clouds of smoke, been playin' this Marvin
21
Mama forgive me, should be thinkin' bout Harvard
22
But that's too far away, niggas are starving
23
Ain't nothin' wrong with aim, just
24
gotta change the target
25
I got dreams of baggin'
26
snidd-ow the size of pillows
27
I see pies everytime my eyes clidd-ose
28
I see rides, sixes, I gotta get those
29
Life's a bitch, I hope that I make her over, though
30
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
31
I never felt that before
32
It's just american dreamin'
33
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
34
I never felt that before
35
It's just american dreamin'
36
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
37
I never felt that before
38
American dreamin'
39
But there's always....
40
That's all that's all...
41
Now see, the life's right there
42
And it seems right there
43
It's not quite near,
44
And it's not like we're
45
professionals movin' the decimals
46
Know where to cop? Nah! got a connect? No!
47
Who under Heaven know how to be successful
48
Need a Personal Jesus, I'm in Depeche Mode
49
They say it's celestial, it's all in the stars
50
Like Tony Caruso, how you played the card
51
Ya'll ain't fucking with me!
52
The ironies are, at all coast
53
better avoid those bars
54
Now lets start, on your mark
55
Get set, lets go-get out the car!
56
Going in circles, it's a vicious cycle
57
This is a crash course, this ain't high school
58
Wake up, Muttley, you're dreamin' again
59
Your own reality show, the season begins
60
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
61
I never felt that before
62
It's just american dreamin'
63
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
64
I never felt that before
65
It's just american dreamin'
66
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
67
I never felt that before
68
American dreamin'
69
But there's always....
70
That's all that's all...
71
Step One in this process,
72
scramble up in your projects
73
And head to the heights where big coke is processed
74
You gotta convince 'em that you
75
not from the Precinct
76
Please speak slow, cause he no speakey no english
77
If he takes a liking after a couple of trips
78
If your money is straight, he's
79
gon' give you consignment
80
You're now in a game where only time can tell
81
Survive the droughts, I wish you well...
82
Survive the droughts? I wish you well?
83
How sick am I? I wish you HEALTH
84
I wish you wheels, I wish you wealth
85
I wish you insight so you could see for yourself
86
You could see the signs, when
87
the jackets is schemin'
88
And the cops is comin', you could read they mind
89
You could see from behind, you could redefine
90
The game as we know it, one dream at a time
91
I'm american dreamin'
92
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
93
I never felt that before
94
It's just american dreamin'
95
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
96
I never felt that before
97
It's just american dreamin'
98
Oh no, I'll never give up on you
99
I never felt that before
100
American dreamin'
101
But there's always....
102
That's all that's all...
103
American' Dreamin...
