I woke up out dat coma, 2000 and 1
'Bout the same time Dre dropped 2000 and 1
Three years the album is done
Aftermath presents: n***a Witta Attitude Volume 1
Rap critics politicin'
Want to know the outcome!
Ready to die, Reasonable Doubt and Doggystyle in one
I feel like Pac, after the Snoop Dogg trial was done
Dre behind the G-Series and All Eyez On Me
I watched the d**h of a dynasty!
So I told Vibe Magazine
Workin' with Dr.Dre was a "Dream!"
I had visions of makin' a cla**ic
Then my wall turned black,like I was starin' outta Stevie Wonders gla**es
It's kinda hard to imagine,like Kanye West
Comin back from a fatal accident, to beat makin' and rappin'
But, we da future
Whitney Houston told me that, it's gon take mo' than a bullet in a heart to hold me back
Blushin' in this 40 ounce
Lettin the ink from my pen bleed
'Cause Marthin Luther King had a "Dream!"
Aaliyah had a "Dream!"
Left Eye had a "Dream!"
So I reached out to Kanye and "brough you all my dreeam!"
[Sample playin "It's 'cause I love you!"]
I had dreams of f**in' an are'n'be b**h like Mya
When I saw dat a** on a front of that King
Read the article in a magazine
She loved gangsters, loved nasty things
So I'm the gla** house havin' nasty dreams!
Good girls neva' give it up
But anything gets possible ,if 50 f**ed Vivica
Heard of life's obstacles,found my way through the maze
Then joy turned to pain like, Frankie Beverly and Maze
Used to dream about bein' Unsigned Hype
Till I was crushed my Dave Mase, almost let my pen fall asleep on a page
Daydreamin' yesterday
Dozin' on offback stage
I tought I saw Eazy talkin' to Jam Master Jay
So I walked over heard Jam Master say
It's a hardknock life, then you pa** away
They say sleep is the cousin' of d**h
So my eyes wide open 'cause a dream is kin to ya last breath
Blushin' in this 40 ounce
Lettin' the ink from my pen bleed
'cause Marthin Luther King had a "Dream!"
Aalyah had a "Dream!"
Left Eye had a "Dream!"
So I reached out to Kanye and "brought you all my dream!"
[Sample playin "It's 'cause I love you!"]
The dream of Huey Newton, that's what I'm livin' through
The dream of Eric Wright, that's what I'm givin' you!
Who walk through the Whithouse without a business suit?
Compton had Jerry Curl drippin' on Ronald Reagans shoes
Gave Mike Lim my demo came here to pay my dues
Started of with Whoo Kid then I started blazin' Clue
It was all a Dream like BIG said it be
Don't sleep on me homie I bring nightmarers to reality
Rap Phenomenon defyin' the rulez of gravity
Studied all the cla**ic start revisin' my strategy
'Cause Marshall Mathers made it
Curtis Jackson made it
Head in the clouds wonderin' where the hell Marvin Gaye went?
How do I say this, I'm livin' for my son but I can't figure, why I'm at my temple with this gun
Wake up to a Jesus Piece like a catholic Nun
The War to be a rap legend had just begun
Blushin' in this 40 ounce
Lettin' the ink from my pen bleed
'Cause Marthin Luther King had a "Dream!"
Aalyah had a "Dream"
Left Eye had a "Dream!"
So I reached out to Kanye and "you are my dreeam!"
[Sample playin "It's 'cause I love you!"]
[At the end GAME talking:]
This song is dedicated to Yutandey Price the sister of Venus and Serena Williams who was slain
During a gang shoutout in Compton, Sunday September 14th 2003, Rest in peace!
