Eh, check the plans out We work hard I ain't asking for a handout If I hit the booth I don't have to pa** those grams out And beat her well when the other thoughts ran out They say they lost words I got them puzzled like the cross-word Harvard I'm not George Washington Carver But you can never pay a boss peanuts If it gets messy be prepared for the cleanup But this thing called success is so strange Because you can get notoriety and still ride the train Make it in it's entirety and search for the fame But I'm still Michael Phelps swinin' in my lane Wheres Lois? Me, I'm Superman here to save the day Or at least I thought I was Til I flew in the Sabre And met my opponent I'm fighting myself Don't offer the condolence I'm Dreamin (Chorus) We Chasin' the dream So what is life the diamonds and the gleam Get a job while I'm doing it Promise to stay true in it Doin' it But promise to never let another soul ruin it And things ain't what it seem Make money to spend it I got my scheme Work hard while we doin' it Promise to stay true to it Doin' it But promise to never let another soul ruin it It too haunting
The task is daunting Trying to get the labels on board while flaunting But, let's make some music make some money Get the rides European ties, have models wives Sometimes I feel faded to pretend Unsafe 'cause my crib is far from gated in I'm a relic believe slightly the psychedelic If I could take off would you consider me angelic Hysteric I'm the subject and the predicate They hatin' on me tell me wheres the eticate If you could lie about me, I don't have to prove I'm better than I play David, I'm a forth year letter man So Letterman can you hear me knocking on the door Hard to breathe at this altitude where the oxygen is poor Think Benz, I don't know what Pontiac means And this is what happens when an insomniac dreams (Chorus) We Chasin' the dream So what is life the diamonds and the gleam Get a job while I'm doing Promise to stay true in it Doin' it But promise to never let another soul ruin it And things ain't what it seem Make money to spend it I got my scheme Work hard while we doin' it Promise to stay true to it Doin' it But promise to never let another soul ruin it
