Catch me riding in the tightest whip
Always with the finest bitch
Really I'm just doing me
Catch me running everything on the block
Pockets always filled up with knots
Really it's all just a dream
Catch me head to toe in the latest fashion
On my waist got a pistol packed in
Really I'm just doing me
Catch me in a mansion
Sailing on a yacht
Everybody want's to get what I got
Thing's aren't always what they seem
Verse One:
N-n-n-n-now everything ain't always what it seems (what it seems)
Everybody just looking for chance to live out they dream, dream, dreams
But circumstance always seems to find away to come in between, tween tween
Right back to reality
Where I'm just doing me
& it seems hard to see
From all this debris
That's falling from the sky
From all these broken dreams
I been broke & had to scheme
& been rich like several members of my team
Who always had to have a dream
Go for broke & give it everything
Because you only live once, going twice
Don't say anything
(You got to get up, get out & get more & see what these dreams may come like Whitmore, you got it get & keep on getting it & tell those dream killers they got to catch you)
Chorus: (Repeat)
Verse Two:
N-n-n-n-now everything ain't always what it seems (what it seems)
All the kid's kid's nowadays chase after rappers dream, dreams
But real life always seems to find a way to come in between, tween, tween
Right back to formality
Where don't shit come free
& it seems hard to see
From all this debris
That's falling from the sky
From all these broken dreams
You went & got your G.E.D.
Oh & you got new job at Mickey D's
You gave up on your dreams
To get em back you'd give up everything
Because you only live once, going twice
Don't say anything
(It's fucked when you live in a society, where you strive to get to the middle just to get fucked by the top & the bottom, how can you not dream when being average will never be enough, dream on)
Chorus: (Repeat)
Verse Three:
N-n-n-n-now everything ain't always what it seems (what it seems)
Up & out early on the grind stacking that green, green, green, green
But the streets always seem to find a way to come in between, tween, tween
Now your just a casualty
Hope you R.I.P.
& it seems hard to see
From all this debris
That's falling from the sky
From all these broken dreams
It's all about that C.R.E.A.M.
Because cash rules everything around me
Or better yet M.O.E.
That's money over everything
Because you only live once, going twice
Don't say anything
