Life is But a Dream Lyrics

Life is fleeting

Inconsequential

And hardly real

It's gone in an instant

And like many a dream

Vanishes soon after waking

(Preach)

My vision 20/20 like I got the LASIK

Giving y'all the run around no rocking Asics, going back to basics

Like drinking liquor when we had to chase it

Now we sipping whiskey on the rocks just like we made it

Telling stories to the youth on how to get there's consummated

My soul is glowing brightest when I'm feeling activated

Even at my lowest I feel like a Superman

Dreams bigger than a Kanye super fan the way I Touch the Sky

You can flap your wings but you wasn't meant to fly

You quick to raise your fists—I'm showin' love, I do not fight

I got a knack for using references from my life in my rhymes when I write

I got time all today and tonight, I'm like a match catching fire when I strike

My pen is always moving like an airplane cutting through the sky

Two circles 'round a period they Targeting my mind

Like a url upside down 3M's are in my sight, my fortune 5

Need a Mill like the General—gettin to the flour but in intervals

European euro stepper better call up Interpol, I'm so international

And I'm choppin' up this beat like I'm typin' up some code

You done grabbed the tiger by the toe

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, these demons at my door

Cannot see me when my aura glow

A menace like a minion when that money grew, that money's blue

Assets on assets I'm invested yeah that's money too

Money working hard doing things that I don't wanna do

But don't get too attached to money 'cause then money makes the rules

Money comes and money goes

Money folds and money rolls

Money high and money low

Money CREAM and money goals

Money bread or money dough

I guess money knows something that I don't 'cause my vices really tug me

I be showing love, but they don't really love me

Been huggin' to the past but wonder why it never hug me

This road is so divine let me tell you my story

If you weren't here when it was gory, you can't bask in my glory

If it ain't mine then it ain't for me

Ain't got time 'cause it be soaring

They gon' hate me at the top like my name was Robert Horry

You want your flowers 'cause you tired of hurtin'

And you tryin' to burn the stems but the stems give a rose its purpose

You get your thorns up on your journey

Don't be scared they will not hurt me

You got that fire that will not burn me

My past do not deserve me

My hands are face to face like a conversation prayin' God has heard me

I don't serve what do not serve me

I just pray I do not worry

I'm a dog and you just Furby

Droppin' nuggets like I'm 30 but not Curry

I'm a Joker in the booth but not playing next to Murray and I'm colder than McFlurry

Mighty duckin' yeah I'm skatin', knuckle puckin', shakin' bakin', Ricky Bobby like I'm racin'

If you ain't first you last, Boltin' fast—no Jamaicans

Make sure family matters first when your wins low

Even when your wins high

Even when the wind blow

Even when that rain feel like it's always on your window

Even when your pain's up in that smoke when you blow indo

Even when your face inside the mirror look like a John Doe

Even when you livin' check to check up in that condo

Even when you livin' good

Even when you dyin' slow

Even when that smile ear to ear ain't really high hopes

It's gloomy in the valley of the shadow of the death

Steady Rockin' while The Whispers dissipate under they breath

Been ballin' for a minute but my dogs know I been a vet

Tendon ripped right off the bone but then the doctor mended that

MJ '95 I'm finally coming back 'cause I ain't done

Pickin' up the torch and I'm a run it like I'm Forrest Gump

Hope you're good at math 'cause I assure you that I'm one of one

My passion for this music hot like devils in that Phoenix Sun

I feel hopeless

Is there anybody out there that understands my pain

Of knowing that this life we live is nothing but a dream

'Cause I don't
