Dreams f. Tunji & B.J. The Chicago Kid

Yeah, I know it gets hard 
but we made it this 
and we never gonna stop 
even when we reach the top 
of our dreams 

[V1 - TUNJI] 

I'm tryna reach the top of my dreams 
That's why I'm mapping out the script and slowly plottin' my scenes 
They never get the picture, even when they're watchin' that screen 
That's why they underestimate me, 'cause I'm not what I seem 
I'm quite different - entirely focused on making wise decisions 
I'd rather risk a huge mistake than spend my life wishin' 
I try to deal with every problem with the right vision 
'Cause when you're gone, it's just that coffin that you lie stiff in 
Six feet under - makes me wonder 
If I could go back in time and try to fix each blunder 
That I made when I was younger, way before the hunger 
Before these groupie broads was tryna save a brother number 
See, I'm achievin' every part of my goals 
And I'ma stay the same, no matter how far that I go 
I think bright, even though inside I'm dark and I'm cold 
Feel the pain in my heart and my soul - but I'm livin' my DREAMS

HOOK 

NATTI 

At last rap has it’s Dr. Parnassus for the masses 
living a dream with atlas as my mattress 
living a dream ‘cause the rent is fantastic 
haters get evicted on a daily basis 
middle finger notice waved in their faces 
let the door hit em where the good Lord split ‘em 
PS...P players you missing the big picture 
get a million inch screen let your dream be seen 
the world is a stage let your dream be scene 
backdrop and props for the finer things 
enjoy the spice of life on your fries and wings 
and wash it down with something imported 
if domestic ain’t the best at making you feel important 
aim high, poppin’ bottles will get boring 
I can have champagne dreams or caviar wishes 
or a catfish sandwich with Champagne the stripper 
Its my dream 

[V3 - DEACON] 

Claim a victory for entering this world earth 
then play your symphony from city to the rural dirt 
beyond hurt, invert your neural confines 
I hit the lines like I'm running in the combine 
intramural of the mind, drink ya night caps 
dream big nigga, play that shit in IMAX 
my dream theater's a perpetual climax 
make miracles, give me water I'll give you wine back 
for troops in IRAQ, Haitians in the Carib 
or my Arabs, who keep the faith and wear it like a scarab 
dreams prepare ya for living they holdin' key to life 
gotta be the sheriff when you have em try to read em right 
don't be impressed by things that haunt ya when you sleep at night 
just rise above it, right in public, catch an eagle flight 
tap that passion that's within ya and just let it breath 
I heard it whisper words of wisdom would ya let it be, please.. let it be 

[OUTRO - BJ THE CHICAGO KID] 

Yeah, I know it gets hard 
but we made it this

even when we reach the top X2 
of our dreams (top of our dreams) X 4
