Dollar And A Dream III - J. Cole[00:00:00]
Yeah, hey, Cole World[00:00:12]
[Hook[00:00:15]
I got a dollar and a dream[00:00:24]
That's all a nigga got[00:00:26]
So if it's bout that cream[00:00:28]
Then I'm all up in the spot[00:00:29]
I got a dollar and a dream[00:00:30]
Just a dollar and a dream[00:00:33]
[Verse 1[00:00:35]
Walk with a nigga, I give you my pain[00:00:37]
So much on my mind I wonder how it fit in my brain[00:00:41]
Scattered thoughts, dark secrets lead me to a blacker heart[00:00:44]
Life can't get any worse, Stevie with his glasses off[00:00:47]
Cause I still don't see hope, lookin' for a quick fix[00:00:50]
When everyone I see is broke, get lost in weed smoke[00:00:53]
Knowing it make it worse, thoughts roam uncontrollably[00:00:56]
Barely trustin' niggas, over a decade they been knowin' me[00:00:58]
Shit, life at the bottom, nobody but God got em[00:01:03]
They say he wouldn't leave me yet I'm fallin' like it's Autumn[00:01:06]
Tell me, what do you do just when you're on your last dollar[00:01:09]
And the stress and this mess you're in can make your ass holla?[00:01:12]
Do you fold, grow bitter and grow cold?[00:01:15]
No longer fightin' now the only thing you grow is old[00:01:19]
Or do you flip that f**kin' dollar to a dream?[00:01:22]
Whether a scholar or a fiend, watch a pawn become a king[00:01:25]
Cole![00:01:28]
Young nigga with his jeans low[00:01:28]
Nice guy just got a mean flow[00:01:33]
Never seen rich but he's seen po'[00:01:35]
Mr Dolla and a Dream in case you ain't know[00:01:38]
[Hook[00:01:41]
That's all a nigga got[00:01:42]
So if it's bout that cream[00:01:43]
Then I'm all up in the spot[00:01:45]
I got a dollar and a dream[00:01:47]
Just a dollar and a dream[00:01:49]
[Verse 2[00:01:50]
Yeah, armed and ready, you niggas strung out, you spaghetti[00:01:52]
You paper, confetti, small time, y'all on one, I'm on mine[00:01:56]
You logged off cause I'm online, small talk from small minds[00:02:00]
I wanna buy the mall but there ain't shit in this small town[00:02:03]
This where I get my dough[00:02:06]
My niggas make sure the money right and then I rip the show[00:02:08]
I run the town they tried to call me underground[00:02:11]
I spun around like, you wish[00:02:14]
Homie my backpack Louis, now watch just how I do this[00:02:15]
I got the nerds rappin' hard shit, dummies rappin' smart shit[00:02:18]
Mozart meets Humphrey Bogart with this from the heart shit[00:02:22]
Play your part, life is but a dream for me[00:02:25]
I get a flash of nightmares where niggas scheme on me[00:02:28]
It's hard to see my enemies; who infiltrated my team?[00:02:31]
I take a step back and notice that things ain't what they seem[00:02:33]
That's when a nigga refocus, yeah I turn on them high beams[00:02:37]
I got that red dot waitin', I'm wastin' your whole regime[00:02:41]
I wish a nigga would, boy you can't out-smart me[00:02:43]
I let you feel like you the shit, but boy you can't out-fart me[00:02:47]
You never, have it, I know you want what I got[00:02:50]
But nigga you ain't me, but you are what I'm not[00:02:53]
And that's a phony ass, lonely ass, Cole is what you know me as[00:02:56]
But we far from homies, if you know my mama, you know me[00:03:00]
If you don't then well I'm sorry, you should get to know Kay[00:03:03]
Man she been workin' too hard, I should send her a bouquet[00:03:05]
My goal this year is a real one, gonna stack a million[00:03:08]
And as soon as I do, mama that 9 to 5 is through[00:03:12]
And I know I ain't been callin', but I'm thinkin' bout you[00:03:15]
And all the shit that you been through[00:03:18]
My girl and then my brother too[00:03:20]
Cause this life get hard on this road, yeah it's true[00:03:21]
I don't never tell you how much I be stressin', but I do[00:03:25]
But I suck it up for who? My fans, and my mans[00:03:28]
Who probably never ever had this type of lifestyle in they plans[00:03:31]
Hoppin' in and out of vans, on the buses, on the planes[00:03:34]
Gettin' brain from a bitch and thinkin' "God damn, what's her name?"[00:03:37]
Sometimes I just shake my head and tell myself this is a shame[00:03:40]
And then my other side kick in like "Bitch don't be so f**kin' lame"[00:03:44]
Dang, what a life, another day, another night[00:03:47]
At times this shit is all blurry, pray and hope that God heard me[00:03:50]
Just for those praying for me, man I know that y'all worry[00:03:53]
But I ain't never failed and you can bet I never will[00:03:56]
Cole![00:03:59]
Young nigga with his jeans low[00:04:00]
Nice guy just got a mean flow[00:04:03]
Never seen rich but he's seen po'[00:04:07]
Mr Dolla and a Dream in case you ain't know[00:04:10]
[Hook[00:04:13]
That's all a nigga got[00:04:13]
So if it's bout that cream[00:04:15]
Then I'm all up in the spot[00:04:16]

Just a dollar and a dream[00:04:19]
[Outro[00:04:22]
Hey[00:04:23]
Cause nigga that's life, and trust me I'm livin'[00:04:24]
Look what a nigga made out the shit that I was given[00:04:27]
Look what a nigga made out[00:04:30]
Look what a nigga made out[00:04:33]
Got a dollar and a dream[00:04:37]
