Kambino - Dreamslave 2 lyrics

[Hook: Christon Gray & Swoope] To live is Christ, to die is gain I asked myself am I a slave Working for the finer things In life Cause I don't ever wanna lose control Gain this world lose my soul So free my mind let me go Goodbye They tell us toast to the good life (good life) Toast to the good life (x4) [Verse 1: Swoope] They tell us to give a toast to the good life or at least the one advertised Let that champagne spill raise them gla**es high Make truth out of wishes Pursue what your bliss is or cruise with the misses Boat shoe ocean blue with a view of the Fishes, you could get used to this feeling We living life in your youth full of riches While real treasure pa** you by, but that's Okay you never had this life, so be Okay with being gratified but never satisfied Stay distracted by the greed of your appetite And never sleep cuz you dream of the lavished life Heart stay empty pockets stay stuffed Cause when you love money you don' ever got enough The dream that you living for will make you a slave Cause the things you're living for can't go to your grave [Hook] [Verse 2: KamBINO] High school, college, majored in astronomy Mastered economics, failing at autonomy Splurge every urge he succumbs to, daydreams to Nightmares, it's like he never comes to, wishing he could Backspace, delete or even undo, cause when you're in the Rat-race the winners yeah they scum too, but no one ever Told him the cheddar starts to mold and switches into Swiss then you fiend to fill the holes in but never care Uh, just look at Michael Jackson and Neverland Problem is Michael Jackson was never Pan Desires anchored in this world they could never stand So you can't buy time just bigger bezels man Outward appearance of a king got a Coretta and a Couple kids but miss the thing that made Martin a better man Peace with the Lord, so when it all falls down Like a leaf in the fall, still be leaving at the morgue A wife, a house, kids and a dog A wife, a house, kids and a dog, and big stuff He'll gladly go and give for one tomorrow, cause guess what He ain't never really live at all, see to live is Christ [Hook]
