A Dolla & A Dream ft. Lucci Lyrics

In the land of milk and honey it cost to dream

Where everyone swears by carpe diem

Tho it's impossible cuz once ya gain steam

The rug gets pulled from under ya by the machine

Preaching the sky is the limit but it's just a ceiling mural

Combining real and fake like it's urban and rural

Guilty conscience got me feeling plural

Outta body experience talking to myself normal

That fake it till ya make it shit only does so much

This cliché seems to be the same ole crutch

Cuz it don't strike gold or give ya the Midas touch

Life is like a manual vehicle without a clutch

Inching forward tryna go a mile per hour

Wilting every second like a withering flower

Caught in a hurricane thunderstorm rain shower

While I'm tryna put in work without power

Okay, I've been working harder than a bitch

To give up would be hitting a kill switch

Self destruction, on my last meal shit

And I'm not ready for that Not giving up on rap

Not ready to tap

All I need is a dollar & a dream no cap

Sit back and watch me snap hoe

Talk down at me and that's a wrap hoe

All my people real

While you living in a rat hole

My people build me up so we can relax bro

All I got is my balls and my word plus a dolla and a dream

Rocking clothes that are splitting at the seam

Wit money on my mind hoping I can redeem

To update myself like I was sponsored by supreme

Do I follow my mind, my heart or my gut

If I wait too long then I won't make the cut

It's got me crazy as an institutionalized nut

Cocky and confident when I start my strut

Walking a thin line that's too tight to pluck

One touch it'll pop and I fall down in the muck

Then get pulled down like quicksand then I'm stuck

Tryna pry myself out but I'm having zero luck

I can see the finish line and it's in the distance

But I get turned around and feel some resistance

Tho I'm a patient person wit persistence

It's time for me to step out and show my existence

I've been working harder than a bitch

To give up would be hitting a kill switch

Self destruction, on my last meal shit

And I'm not ready for that Not giving up on rap

Not ready to tap

All I need is a dollar & a dream no cap

Sit back and watch me snap hoe

Talk down at me and that's a wrap hoe

All my people real

While you living in a rat hole

My people build me up so we can relax bro

Where do I go from here I surely don't know

Do I follow the familiar path and go wit the flow

Or take the fork in the road back to the show

Or make my own way to ensure that I grow

I'm still stuck between a rock and a hard place

That feels like I'm in a never ending car chase

I'm far behind unable to reach the home base

When the spotlight hits I'm not there to show face

See I'm tryna be that hard act to follow

But this humble pill ain't easy to swallow

No sorrow but this time I cannot borrow

And my pride won't let me just sit around and wallow

I'm taking advantage of every situation

Shit's gonna change starting wit this operation

I'm fixated on fixing this little sick fixation

Saying fuck it I'm staying for the long duration

I've been working harder than a bitch

To give up would be hitting a kill switch

Self destruction, on my last meal shit

And I'm not ready for that

Not giving up on rap

Not ready to tap

All I need is a dollar & a dream no cap

Sit back and watch me snap hoe

Talk down at me and that's a wrap hoe

All my people real

While you living in a rat hole

My people build me up so we can relax bro

What inspires ya motivation

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream

I gotta dolla and dream
