Elijah Blake - Life Is But A Dream lyrics

[Intro: Martin Luther King Speech] I am happy to join with you today And what will go down in history As the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation [Verse 1] So it seems I'm lost In between exotic cars and fiends Palms hella itchy, baby mama b**hy Dish washer broke cuz them pots too sticky Snap back to the back cause I got that crack And I'm from that city Where even the girls is packing they strap Beats on They don't hear that rap, sh** Unless it's Y.G or Problem Then them b**hes turn up ASAP like they went to school in Harlem But they know they from Compton Yea they know they from Compton Where we put ba** with the head before Dre was with Monster We pulled guns on n***as 'fore we ever play Contra Turned contra into bands and that make them hoes dance so Let that b**h breathe before she take yo kids And you be forced to watch that b**h leave And that's every n***a's situation In a town where them gang signs go up And them b**hes going down [Hook: Elijah Blake and Game] Life is a but a dream I'm searching for a dream Life is a but a dream Life is a but a dream Life is a but a dream Life is a but a dream Life is a but a dream Life is a but a dream Life is everything but a dream [Interlude: Martin Luther King] A great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free [Verse 2] n***as robbed 2 Chainz on World Star, I seen these n***as runnin Them ain't yo n***as no more ‘cause I got mine's comin You take a n***a j**els and act like you done did something We take a n***a life and act like we ain't did nothing And all of this is at the push of a bu*ton I got n***as bustin' simply because they ribs touchin' No we ain't tryna work at Mickey D's n***as is tryin to put that six on Ds And flip one of them Bentley keys Hood n***as that only wanna be hood rich Stack a hundred thousand in the safe and wife a good b**h Cop a Gucci belt, maybe Louis too Line a Challenger with that Camaro and see what it do Hit toxic ‘cause we got a fit and can't wasted it It's hot as f** but at least we can see these hoes' faces Ask Drama what that sh** do Every time he hit the city give him a couple hoes and a pistol ‘Cause I, I hold my n***as down I said I, I hold my n***as down Yea I hold my n***as down And the day I go out this is Kendrick's crown [Outro] No, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until “justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.” Life is but a dream Life is but a dream Life is everything but a dream
