The Notorious B.I.G. - It's Still A Dream lyrics

This is still a dream, so now I'm in the basement all night Recording in my ghetto little setup, it's all right I used to stack chairs on top of a table With the mic on that, I'm holdin it to keep It stable But I feel like I'm movin to a new chapter So goodbye to the old and welcome what's comin after The laughter replacing the hatred and anguish Showing that love translates through any language I'm blessed cuz to me this sh** is basic And you been tryin for years and still can't taste it Should've worked harder before you chose to chase it You second rate maybe it's time for you to face it You know what they say kid, f** what you heard I am the sh** and you just a turd Going hard on a biggie beat just to show It's about time for you to act like you know Chorus: You know very well, who you are Keep on dreamin baby, you'll be a star You have a goal, so don't get lazy (it's all good baby baby) I'm blasting off, to a whole new galaxy Maybe earth isn't the place for my fantasy Because it's been Long way, but I'm just gettin started I'm about to make everyone who doubted feel retarded When they see me blow cuz of this freaky flow Its not an easy road to my own tv show With some sleezy hoes, I'll turn the nice ones to p**n stars Report cards? f** that, I need some sports cars But first off, I gotta get my sh** legitimate I'm rippin it but still ain't got enough people listening My sk**s impeccable I dare you to critic it Then try and tell me anything other than "bro you k**in it" And yea I know but I can't be actin co*ky When inside me I know that I'm really Hip hops rocky See me and you won't expect to be impressed Hear me and know I'm goin down as one of the best Chorus I can't stop, knowin I'm flowin a jackpot Growin and showin I'm harder than the blacktop This generation of sand n***as I'm the mascot So if you see me gon flash a snapshot Cuz now it's nothin special but your witnessin the molding Of a hip hop legend being crafted outta gold The story's still goin gotta watch it unfold It's under my control it lies in my soul So now I gotta spread it from within me Shoot it out in all directions like a frisbee Share with you the moments of my life that enriched me And show you that I never sold out b**h I been me (Now I'm in the limelight cuz I rhyme tight) This is my life so I'm makin moves when the times right I shine bright, so close your eyes Fall asleep and dream with me where we own the skies Chorus
