9th Wonder - American Dreamin lyrics

Dreamed of you this mornin' Then came the dawn and I thought you were here with me If you could only see how much I love you That's all, that's all, baby Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) But there's always (That's all that's all) This is the sh** you dream about with the homie steamin' out Back-back-backin' them Beemer's out Seems as our plans to get a grant Then go off to college, didn't pan or even out We need it now, we need a town We need a place to pitch, we need a mound For now, I'm just a lazy boy Big dreamin' in my La-Z-Boy In the clouds of smoke, been playin' this Marvin Mama forgive me, should be thinkin' 'bout Harvard But that's too far away, n***as are starvin' Ain't nothin' wrong with aim, just gotta change the target I got dreams of baggin' snidd-ow the size of pillows I see pies every time my eyes clidd-ose I see rides, sixes, I gotta get those Life's a b**h, I hope that I make her over, though Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) It's just American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' But there's always (That's all, that's all) Now see, the life's right there And it seems right there, it's not quite near And it's not like we're professionals movin' the decimals Know where to cop? Nah, got a connect? No Who under heaven knows how to be successful Need a Personal Jesus, I'm in Depeche Mode They say it's celestial, it's all in the stars Like Tony Caruso, how you played the card Y'all ain't f**in' with me The ironies are, had all coast better before he was bars Now let's start, on your mark Get set, let's go, get out the car Goin' in circles, it's a vicious cycle This is a crash course, this ain't high school Wake up, Muttley, you're dreamin' again Your own reality show, the season begins Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) It's just American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' But there's always (That's all, that's all) Step one in this process, scramble up in your projects And head to the heights where big coke is processed You gotta convince 'em that you not from the Precinct Please speak slow, 'cause he no speakey no English If he takes a likin' after a couple of trips If your money is straight, he's gon' give you consignment You're now in a game where only time can tell Survive the droughts, I wish you well Survive the droughts, I wish you well How sick am I? I wish you health I wish you wheels, I wish you wealth I wish you insight so you could see for yourself You could see the signs, when the jackets is schemin' And the cops is comin', you could read their mind You could see from behind, you could redefine The game as we know it, one dream at a time, I'm American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' Oh no, I'll never give up on you (I never felt that before) American dreamin' But there's always (That's all, that's all) American dreamin' Oh baby But there's always (That's all, that's all) But there's always (That's all, that's all)
