Dreamer

Turn me down just a little bit (down just a little bit). ATG
 Yo, I dream of blue skies—never seeing cloudy days
 I'm on a high all the time without the purple haze
 Claiming a bounty when everybody's health is good
 No more shots getting sprayed within our neighborhoods
 Call me a dreamer, but this here is an achievable goal
 Just depends on how far that you're willing to go
 To believe in what's real or will you choose the matrix?
 It's 2000 and 12—it ain't no time for fakeness
 Achieving greatness only because My Lord decreed it
 And for that I'm forever humble, my people peep it
 This ain't a secret—just overshadowed by false desires
 You can't see what's in front of you, keep looking behind ya
 No more sadness leadin' to the sad stories
 No more trapping on the block leadin' the war stories
 Some niggas scheming, other is niggas is frontin'
 But I'm a big dreamer, so watch me come up with somethin'
 Yo, I always dream about being with the ones I love
 No more days of the purple brain and crying thugs
 To get the wisdom of the prophets, I studied they mission
 To have the faith for the Christian, so I bear witness
 Upon hearing the clear message, some people listen
 The truth can never be denied in any condition
 Sipping on the finest wine—no intoxication
 No longer needing the protests and demonstrations
 Draped in the silk robes with the green bouquet
 Arms covered in gold, gauntlets is set astray
 Got the purified mace with the blushest eyes
 'Cause we struggle from day to day in our worldly lives
 But until that time arrives, it's a constant battle
 Tryna stay out the Devil's shackles and hell's castle
 Some gents scheming, other gents be frontin'
 But I'm a big dreamer, so watch me come up with somethin'
 "I'm going on a one-way street..."
