[Intro: Moses Soka]
Mic check 1,2,1,2 (yeah)
We all got dreams
Some big, some small(damn)
I got dreams to be rich one day(7x)
Yo, I got dreams to be rich one day
[Hook:Moses]
Yo, I got dreams to be rich one day
I can't let anybody get in my way (No)
I got dreams to be rich one day
I can't let anybody get in my way
[Verse 1: Moses]
Just the dreams of any ordinary n***a
We don't see money often, so we dream of getting richer
A rich white man will never understand the picture
The struggles that we face and why we break and enter
They call up the cops, and expect us to surrender
And always at the end they result to pull the trigger
(that's f**ed up)
Put your hands up or get gunned up
You choose
And in both ways, you lose
That's how the systems abused
We hold our own
In this dark world, we ain't alone
We got God, but some get weeded to reach a zone
So far from home to ease the pain that's so unknown
We be low but get high off herbs when they are blown
[Bridge: Moses]
But- that's all we know
(That's all we know, that's all we know)
But- that's all we know
(That's all we know, that's all we know)
If I had something to say,would I need your permission to speak
I notice that we are subject to you because in your eyes we are weak
Pathetic and pointless on this earth
You curse those who give us birth
You Coward
[Hook:Moses]
Yo, I got dreams to be rich one day
I can't let anybody get in my way (No)
I got dreams to be rich one day
I can't let anybody get in my way
[Verse 2:Quartz]
(Yeah)
Quartz (Look)
Another day, another dollar
Another gun fired
Another man k**ed tryna live out his desires
It seems we under fire
And I bet them bullets burn
It's like satan right in front of us and all our heads is turned
We in this day and age, where everybody snitching
k**ing one another, all they do is build the prison
Parents break they back just to pay college tuition
Then they realize they don't want us at our college cause our image
I ain't gonna act like we don't portray the image
But I'm be a man and try to help my people fix it
They just need to listen
To all the knowledge that I'm kicking
From O.G's that taught their kids to glisten
See they know what I know
I go, where they go
They see,what I see
No I spy, just TV
I'm gonna be me
And you're gonna be you
I did this for my people
So here, this is for you
Uh
