A Dream

It was all a dream

Last night I had a dream

Thoughts was racin through my head (it was all a dream)

Felt so real to me

This is what was said..

Had a dream I said, bout who he said?

Bout B.I.G. I said, that\'s big he said

Dig he said, proceed he said

Indeed I said, so - breathe I did

Don\'t repeat what I say I said, he said nothin

He agreed with his head, he just nodded like this

What I believe to be a yes I re-peated what was said

It came to me like a .. well as even I said

You feel playboy, was the greeting he said

First thing I wanted to know, what\'s the reason he was dead?

More money, more problems, better believe it, he said

Careful what you wish for you might receive it, he said

I see I said, jealousy I said

Got the whole industry mad at me I said

Then B.I. said, Hov\' remind yourself

nobody built like you, you designed yourself

I agree I said, my one of a kind self

Get stoned every day like Jesus did

What he said, I said, has been said before

Just keep doin your thing, he said, say no more

Was it all a dream - tell me

Was it all a dream, was it a dream

Was it all a dre-eeee-eeeee-eeam

Was it all a dream - was it a dream

Was it all a dream, a dream

Was it all a dre-eeee-eeeee-eeam

It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up magazine

Salt\'n\'Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine

Hangin pictures on my wall

Every Saturday, Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl

I let my tape rock \'til my tape popped

Smokin **** and bamboo, sippin on private stock

Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack

with the hat to match

Remember Rappin\' Duke? Duh-ha, duh-ha

You never thought that hip-hop would take it this far

Now I\'m in the limelight cause I rhyme tight

Born sinner, the opposite of a winner

Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner

Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri

Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starsky

I\'m blowin up like you thought I would

Call the crib, same number same hood, it\'s all good

Uhh, and if you don\'t know, now you know, *****

Was it all a dream - tell me

Was it all a dream, was it a dream

Was it all a dre-eeee-eeeee-eeam

Was it all a dream - was it a dream

Was it all a dream, a dream

Was it all a dre-eeee-eeeee-eeam
