Dreams Lyrics

[PRE-CHORUS]
Whoo! Hold up, I know you love the feeling
When you see a real one in the building
Oh, this for all my fam with all them dreams to make a billion
I lit it up, now put you hands up to the ceiling sayin

[CHORUS]
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh, Ohhh, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
I got dreams
I got, I got dreams

[VERSE ONE]
From the Mitten, gettin green like Draymond
With a foreign chick, foreign whip like I'm James Bond
I spit fire like napalm
I should throw your album off a cliff, no state farm
Your shit is so lacking the heat
Boy I'm smacking the beat, while I'm mackin' your freak
I'm just living my life, you can download and see,
I'm the kid on the cover like Live '03
thats me, we do it for the honor
But I need checks with some commas and commas
Back in the day, I told my crush I want her
Now I tell her 'Nevermind' bitch I found my Nirvana
So many hoes in my bed, so no-one tell my mama
Girl you should know what it is
We all 'bout to eat like I'm filling my fridge
It was all a dream, and I'm feeling like BIG, Uh
It's always game-time, I got no time for practice
No time for reactions, I'm repping my city
Put that on the Atlas, we way above average
My girl turning heads, I call that chiropractics
I skip the schematics, she look like an actress
hungry in the game, yeah she look just like Katniss
I'm high as the attic, I'm high as an addict
I'll show you the world, bitch I feel like Alladin
Goddamnit, I'll take you to my planet
Where lames and critics don't understand it
Going down, I get her wet
Yeah I treat your chick just like the Titanic
Got dreams, with my amigos
Gon' change the game up with no cheat codes
My lyrics go off, I often reload
and bang like Jordan coming off the free-throw
Got dreams!

[CHORUS]
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh, Ohhh, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
I got dreams
I got, I got dreams

[VERSE TWO]
This that shit that make the world numb
This that shit that make your girl cum
We can take it back all the way to square one
Fire up the SP12 and Linndrum
I got (I got) dreams, Now let's go
I know I'm not perfecto, but I'm real boy, Gipetto
You know! Paper is all I'm concerning
My city on me, wear that thing like a jersey
This life is a journey, I told Joey if you can do better
Man then they really ain't worthy
Look, it was me and Andre Drummond
In Royal Oak with some baddies being never subtle
At the table I keep two 10s with me
Check the book, boy I average a double-double
Whoo, its a party homie, I just parlay homie
I'm a smooth operator, no Sade homie
All up in your girl's dorm, I'm the R.A. homie
Tryna live the life that they kill bout
It's 5AM and we still out
I don't know how to chill out
Watching the Simpsons in a mansion, that's a Millhouse
Dog, I'm stacking paper on paper
My bitches got bitches, my haters got haters
You thrown off the throne yeah my crew are invaders
Blowing purp, rockin' gold like I play for the Lakers
I know it's not easy to visualize it
So it's me, yeah I'm Drew, like an illustrator
I'm an innovator, entertainer
I need it now, not a second or minute later
I got dreams

[PRE-CHORUS]
Whoo! Hold up, I know you love the feeling
When you see a real one in the building
Oh, this for all my fam with all them dreams to make a billion
I lit it up, now put you hands up to the ceiling sayin

[CHORUS]
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh, Ohhh, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
I got dreams
I got, I got dreams
Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams) Oh yeah, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
Oh, Ohhh, I got (I got) dreams (dreams)
I got dreams
I got, I got dreams

[TRANSITION]
Yeah
You know I got them dreams
You know I got them dreams
Ooh-oh, Ooh-oh
Yeah
You know I got, dreams
You know I got, dreams
You know I got, dreams
You know I got, dreams

[VERSE THREE]
It really started in '05
Jay Hussle all up on VH1
Freestyle 59, he was ripping rhymes
Couldn't believe when he ain't won
Few months later, he was on the run
My big bro singed with Bungalo
I was working on me and my own shit
and my pops was damn near almost done with you
Round the same time, I had a talent show
in 8th grade, backstage, yeah I met B-Smooth
From that day on, it's been QTI, till I die
motherf*cker yeah you know the crew
Thats when Royce dropped 'Independents Day'
I hit the same studio, it was MPA
Yeah Detroit was killin, I was feeling good
Around then, K-Deezy dropped "In My Hood"
Put my city out, 'Awakening'
I was young so I thought I was making it
At 15 though, I really was ahead of my time
I listen back like "Damn, young Drew could rhyme"
I joined a group with my homie Murph
Back then, we knew him as Gem City
Enayalatas, B-Smooth, Epidemik
Yeah I had my whole team with me
Kept recording, 2008, first time that I performed overseas
Denour introduced me to Doughboy
And when we got back home he managed me
Andrena shot the video for "Beyond Me"
Got that thing on the Fuse TV
Local DJs up in Detroit radio started playing me
I couldn't believe, I was in the club
'For I was even old enough to get up in the club
So thankful they showed me love
Pretty soon I was getting a buzz
Couple tapes with Mo Beatz and there I was
Still hustling, still searching
Graphic design, my mind wandered
Designed a MySpace for Jon Freeman
That motherf*cker turned into Jon Connor
Designed the MySpace for Royce Da 5'9"
Man he was like the greatest to me
I came up bumping that Bar Exam
Years later, "Spazz Out" was amazing to me
Then around the same time Eminem dropped 'Relapse'
Drake dropped 'So Far Gone' I can't believe that
I was in the studio just working on 'Sunrise On Your Dreams'
and at the time I could see that
I didn't really wanna go to college man,
Cuz things were racing like a relay, G
Then I headed to the west coast, and dropped 'Label Me'
the mixtape with DJ Skee
Yeah, I was next "Next", said MTV
Even Billboard, they f*cked with me
Back to LA to meet with labels, yeah I felt so close
They like what they see
But I guess that's just the damn industry
They flew me to South-By and didn't even show up to see me
That was heavy, man I really had to grow up
Man f*ck that, now it's really time to blow up
Put out the video to "I Am King", then we got email from ESPN
First Take played me during the Superbowl
I was filling the streets like pedestrians
Next thing I know, Jon signs with Dre
Crazy, I was just next to him
Our song was on Shade45, I would hear it in the ride
"Congrats", I sent a text to him, "thats love"
Man a lot changes, I opened for Kendrick, I hit the stages
Afterparties for J.T., Jay-Z, yeah it was outrageous
Just a quick glance how the story goes
I got a lotta goals
And the future holds mysteries, a lot still untold
Unload and watch it all unfold
Through the highs and the lows we once more
Dream big and going for the gusto
I been stressing man for like a month though
And I'm just bout to leave out the front door
I got, dreams
so I laced up my Nikes and
I left the crib one evening
and well, thats just where the night began...
Drew

Away We Go
