Lyrics

[00:08.44] DJ ill Will
[00:10.01] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, look, like
[00:19.68] Damn, won't you get her her paradise
[00:22.96] Somethin' more than a store with a pair of Nikes
[00:25.47] That we probably can't afford 'cause the wearin' price
[00:27.97] So instead, we just window shop
[00:30.12] At night time, gotta keep her windows locked
[00:32.61] 'Cause n*ggas outside with they things on cock
[00:35.14] And money so low though, through they been throwin' rock
[00:37.65] I heard he savin' up for that Benz old drop
[00:40.12] But if cops knock 'em down and his ears gon' flop
[00:42.63] So the ink from his pen gon' drop
[00:45.31] 'Cause when we do the crime, everythin's blown out
[00:47.72] I help the portion, women havin' abortions
[00:50.27] And we as black males should not be black male
[00:53.03] We can make planes instead of them c*ack sales
[00:55.74] Think about it, you ruinin' someone's life
[00:57.95] And if they come back, you doin' it to 'em twice
[00:59.79] Let's all go to sleep
[01:02.35] Just a dream a day
[01:04.85] Way them clouds ain't grey
[01:07.35] And you're miles away
[01:09.87] So just let your head
[01:12.40] Think away the pain
[01:14.88] From your cloudy day
[01:17.38] Because now you stay in a beautiful place
[01:21.27] Damn, won't you give a man good livin'
[01:23.39] Good cookin' that ain't comin' outta hood kitchen
[01:25.93] Build a better community that we could live in
[01:28.44] Give us better predicaments that we shoulda been in
[01:30.99] I mean not all of us bad, some got a good vision
[01:33.44] And our role models gettin' shot up in the hood slippin'
[01:36.26] The fall out's appall seen
[01:37.93] How do we graduate if drop outs all we see?
[01:40.47] And when we sleep, the only time that we offer peace
[01:42.91] Wish I could wake up and all my pain's all a dream
[01:45.46] All as God's human beings, come all a team
[01:48.08] Where everybody on the bus on the car to be
[01:50.54] We need difference in the world, predominantly
[01:53.66] Need change, more than an Obama speech
[01:56.16] We need to listen like the times when our mama speaks
[01:58.65] So we can finally expand like we oughta be, uh
[02:00.34] Let's all go to sleep
[02:02.77] Just a dream a day
[02:05.36] Way them clouds ain't grey
[02:07.84] And you're miles away
[02:10.32] So just let your head
[02:12.85] Think away the pain
[02:15.43] From your cloudy day
[02:17.90] Because now you stay in a beautiful place
[02:22.42] How could we see clearly if the circumstances we've been born into are not as golden or bright as others?
[02:29.80] How does someone do so right if only seein' so wrong?
[02:33.33] How does a community change for the better to change another community?
[02:38.67] The answer is one word, self.
[02:41.22] You see you must first change yourself as a person before you can change someone else or correct anyone on their own problems.
[02:48.66] Only he without sin has the right to judge someone with sins in their wrong heart.
[02:53.16] Some people are good hearted, some people are bad hearted.
[02:56.72] Good and bad people both have their differences but one thing they have in common is sleep.
[03:01.89] You see no matter how long you stay awake, you will always need to sleep.
[03:06.49] And in that sleep, you exist in another world, another realm.
[03:10.59] You will wake up in the morning only to have to go to sleep that same night.
[03:16.39] And then you exist again in the dream world.
[03:18.99] Keep the dream alive. Mr. Peterson
