[Verse 1: Black Milk] And the story goes never how the story's told Just woke up out a dream with my brain bent Life glares mixed with nightmares And now I'm tryna make it all make sense I'm on my eighth sense, yo you know it ain't sh** We ain't grow up living the life n***a It was poison in the place where we came from We ain't grow up in no paradise n***a I lay in bed while staring at the ceiling While the scenes from the dreams is slowly disappearing Got me thinking wish I could rewind time, yo just trippin' Yo, rewind time do a lot of things different
Like moved out the game wouldn't of done it all the same Wouldn't of been outside a club to rob a n***a for a chain Probably should've remained in that church a little longer But I didn't now I'm standing thinking d**h's around the corner Uh, but make no mistakes yo Made many mistakes though Can't even fake so someone have to pay fo' Got a lotta hate fo' so I had to pace slow What does it all mean? To lose your soul to try to live an American dream f** a life here, I'd rather go to sleep and live inside my nightmare
