Dreams - Square One, IZZ

In my dreams full screen themes and brainstorms

Thoughts out of line, humming the same song

In my dreams, fourteen wishing the pain’s gone

Grand-daddy saying: You’ve gut to stay strong

In my dreams, we’ve never left home, it’s all love

Never left the kind of folks I call blood …

What began as a youngster’s small grudge

Made kids run on the streets and bust slugs

In my dreams, missiles and bombshells

The type of fucking dreams, my man Sadam sells

My heaven, beyond hell

In my dreams I listen to things my mom tells

Walk in my dreams, talk in my dreams

Find my outlines in chalk in my dreams

Had to escape from New York in my dreams

And everything’s grimy and dark in my dreams!

In my dreams I wished I could freeze the time

My dreams revolve around beats & rhymes

To spit the realest shit MCs can find

And watch the industry that l leave behind

I rather go back to making demos than cutting records

See, my music is more than touching methods

In my dreams my boys will recognize the effort

A record-company is nothing but a shepherd in my dreams

A nine to live, a nice whip …

A few mouths to feed, waiting for the right pitch …

I ain’t trying to front player, l like this

Since they claim my songs are too incisive

In my dreams, true love and friendship lasts

Fuck the loot I’m finna spent it fast

On ice and fur-coats and expensive ass

Dreams l’m seeing through plexiglass

In my dreams I rock rags, avis & clarks

Just one in a million, playing my part

In ciphers with Dolo, trading our hearts

On the concrete-jungle: State of the Art

In my dreams, I kept it real a long time ago

Before there have been NT3's and them cyber-hoes

Before kids knew KRS in ldaho

Before making my first tape in 94 …

In my dreams a human out of flesh

Forgive me but I refuse to be the best?!

Rasul, disillusioned and depressed

In my dreams I pop a deuce in your chest …

L’m slill slinging rocks in my dreams

Still the school of hard-knocks in my dreams

Still them big guns and cops in my dreams

Hip Hup got me shadowboxing with my dreams
