J. Cole - Dollar And A Dream 3 Lyrics
Yeah, hey, Cole World[Hook:]I got a dollar and a dreamThat's all a nigga gotSo if it's bout that creamThen I'm all up in the spotI got a dollar and a dreamJust a dollar and a dream[Verse 1:]Walk with a nigga, I give you my painSo much on my mind I wonder how it fit in my brainScattered thoughts, dark secrets lead me to a blacker heartLife can't get any worse, Stevie with his glasses offCause I still don't see hope, lookin' for a quick fixWhen everyone I see is broke, get lost in weed smokeKnowing it make it worse, thoughts roam uncontrollablyBarely trustin' niggas, over a decade they been knowin' meShit, life at the bottom, nobody but God got emThey say he wouldn't leave me yet I'm fallin' like it's AutumnTell me, what do you do just when you're on your last dollarAnd the stress and this mess you're in can make your ass holla?Do you fold, grow bitter and grow cold?No longer fightin' now the only thing you grow is oldOr do you flip that *****in' dollar to a dream?Whether a scholar or a fiend, watch a pawn become a kingCole! Young nigga with his jeans lowNice guy just got a mean flowNever seen rich but he's seen po'Mr Dolla and a Dream in case you ain't know[Hook:]That's all a nigga gotSo if it's bout that creamThen I'm all up in the spotI got a dollar and a dreamJust a dollar and a dream[Verse 2:]Yeah, armed and ready, you niggas strung out, you spaghettiYou paper, confetti, small time, y'all on one, I'm on mineYou logged off cause I'm online, small talk from small mindsI wanna buy the mall but there ain't shit in this small townThis where I get my doughMy niggas make sure the money right and then I rip the showI run the town they tried to call me undergroundI spun around like, you wishHomie my backpack Louis, now watch just how I do thisI got the nerds rappin' hard shit, dummies rappin' smart shitMozart meets Humphrey Bogart with this from the heart shitPlay your part, life is but a dream for meI get a flash of nightmares where niggas scheme on meIt's hard to see my enemies; who infiltrated my team?I take a step back and notice that things ain't what they seemThat's when a nigga refocus, yeah I turn on them high beamsI got that red dot waitin', I'm wastin' your whole regimeI wish a nigga would, boy you can't out-smart meI let you feel like you the shit, but boy you can't out-fart meYou never, have it, I know you want what I gotBut nigga you ain't me, but you are what I'm notAnd that's a phony ass, lonely ass, Cole is what you know me asBut we far from homies, if you know my mama, you know meIf you don't then well I'm sorry, you should get to know KayMan she been workin' too hard, I should send her a bouquetMy goal this year is a real one, gonna stack a millionAnd as soon as I do, mama that 9 to 5 is throughAnd I know I ain't been callin', but I'm thinkin' bout youAnd all the shit that you been throughMy girl and then my brother tooCause this life get hard on this road, yeah it's trueI don't never tell you how much I be stressin', but I doBut I suck it up for who? My fans, and my mansWho probably never ever had this type of lifestyle in they plansHoppin' in and out of vans, on the buses, on the planesGettin' brain from a ***** and thinkin' "God damn, what's her name? "Sometimes I just shake my head and tell myself this is a shameAnd then my other side kick in like "***** don't be so *****in' lame"Dang, what a life, another day, another nightAt times this shit is all blurry, pray and hope that God heard meJust for those praying for me, man I know that y'all worryBut I ain't never failed and you can bet I never willCole! Young nigga with his jeans lowNice guy just got a mean flowNever seen rich but he's seen po'Mr Dolla and a Dream in case you ain't know[Hook:]That's all a nigga gotSo if it's bout that creamThen I'm all up in the spotI got a dollar and a dreamJust a dollar and a dream[Outro:]HeyCause nigga that's life, and trust me I'm livin'Look what a nigga made out the shit that I was givenLook what a nigga made outLook what a nigga made outGot a dollar and a dreamThree
