Dreams Ain't Cheap

Yeah, look

I want more money
And way less problems
I want these women to adore me, and bring me no drama
I want these niggas who disrespected to know karma
And give me all of that ammunition to go harder

Damn

'Em Christian Diors nice
I buy it for a rack and it only get worn twice
The way that I be spendin' just get Derique more tight
I tell him "that's how we're livin', and look, it's a short life"

Yeah

To each it's own
Right now, I'm going up and got my city in a hold
And you know the flow legit when niggas take it like a loan
A clone nevertheless, but shit, at least I changed the tone

I deserve to be conceited
For each time someone let me down, this is how I'm gettin' even
I'm 26 and breathin', still pursuin' all my dreams and makin' green with everybody in my legion
Does it sting, yet?

I know of all the things they try to point and make fun at
Never the flow though, they know I run that
Don't trust these hoes anymore, I been there and done that
N.Y, BX, I'm from that
Legend? I soon become that

Are you talkin' to me?
I can't hear you over the laughter and positive things
Make sure your money right before you come targetin' me
I got all that you want
What you offerin' me?

It better be a bankroll
Whole fee, everything I came for
'Cause these dreams ain't cheap

It's a bankroll
Whole fee, everything I came for
'Cause these dreams ain't cheap, nigga

Are you talkin' to me?
I can't hear you over the laughter and positive things
Make sure your money right before you come targetin' me
I got all that you want
What you offerin' me?

Uh
Am I really 'pose to be humble?
Even though I'm part of the trio who went number one, though
Even though I've outlasted every single soul that I know
Who didn't see it through that my vision make it out the tunnel, for real

And I heard your new album
I bet if I was willin' to help, you'd see a different outcome
Niggas say my name, I just stay calm and let their mouth run
No time to send hits on a rapper who exists without one

Yeah

I never seen the drip you claim you coppin'
Nor have you, unless you was window-shoppin'
I hate a nigga who portrays a image, knowin' his reflection watchin'
With an understandin' that he's not him

But, they say "fake it 'till you make it"
Well, shit, there's no mistakin' you're pretendin'
Everybody see right through you like you're naked
And since reality ain't part of your imagination
Let me help you escape 'em
But, first I need clarification

Are you talkin' to me?
I can't hear you over the laughter and positive things
Make sure your money right before you come targetin' me
I got all that you want
What you offerin' me?

It better be a bankroll
Whole fee, everything I came for
'Cause these dreams ain't cheap

It's a bankroll
Whole fee, everything I came for
'Cause these dreams ain't cheap, nigga

Are you talkin' to me?
I can't hear you over the laughter and positive things
Make sure your money right before you come targetin' me
I got all that you want
What you offerin' me?
