~~Dreams~~


J-o-e

Thought i'd show ya'll this, tell me what ya'll think

Deep down inside my heart I knew I could grow

But this music industry just doesn’t want me to blow

I know at times I can be stupid a little bit bizarre

But now I learnt that meant dreams are only far

Looking back at my life so far it isn’t what I planned

I didn’t give what they asked for, lyrical demand

But my mischief turns into alleged dependences

Just like freedom of speech, our own independences

Creatively trying think of ways just to please

Rhyming with ease I got a way to make some cheese

A little bit of money to get my feet of the ground

I missed the 3 pointer so I can just grab the rebound

Thought life is all worthwhile till they busted my style

Maybe if I freestyle I can be like snoop and go on trail

I try and keep things on wax and keep my perfection

But now I look at myself in the mirror and look at the reflection

I don’t like it but I can’t help the way that I look

Maybe I shouldn’t of chosen rap, but instead a cook

I feel like I’ve been injected from being rejected

But I’m now infected and only a few get selected

Maybe it’s like that every where in the world

Honestly enough my life does acrobatics with twirls

But I can’t stop the way that I move to better places

I want to see the world, and see different faces….

I just wanted to fulfil all of my dreams

Maybe I could of silenced all of the screams

Now I realise that life isn’t how it seems

Honestly just wanted to fulfil all of my dreams….

Alleged dependences what do they really mean

A place to go where all you got is crushed dreams

A place to chill and kick it with all your homies

Step back because nobody else wants to know me

Recollecting memories when I was way back at school

I should of stayed on but I was like a fool

Took drugs got into getting paper instead of love

It won’t surprise me if god spits me out up above

And straight down to hell, I’ve never been to jail

But if I did I would be raising hell till I got bail

I had loving people especially with school girl crush

Making them step back look at themselves and blush

At times I think I was just waiting for my introduction

Waiting to be brought on stage but its destruction

Just urging to and kill me or someone else

I’m in this game for hip hop, not the wealth

How many times do I really need to explain

Toasting on champagne until I can’t feel my brain

Problems duplicated and now its getting complicated

Now hated, he’s dying look at his eyes there dilated

Even at times I wish I wouldn’t of threw a fist

Would I be missed? Can I twist the words do I exist?

Sit down lets be calm and just have a discussion

No need for concussions if anyone has any repercussions

I just wanted to fulfil all of my dreams

Maybe I could of silenced all of the screams

Now I realise that life isn’t how it seems

Honestly just wanted to fulfil all of my dreams….

At times I wished that I could just have one appearance

Even if it was illegal and I couldn’t get the clearance

Rush the stage and push the artist over the edge

Then he can stage dive while he’s balancing on the ledge

Bouncers trying to get to me but I duck and move

Just for me to prove that I’ve improved

Ripping these pages that have been blessed for ages

Temper is screaming to let out all the rages

But yet I’m still broke trying to scramble a smoke

Still hustling with dealers who sell a bit of coke

Don’t look at me like that man I’m still straight

No reason for you to hate don’t need to escalate

Because if you do who knows what I might do

I might just kill you and get your name as a tattoo

Because can’t I have a dream if Martin Luther King had one?

I’ve had more threats by kids on the block with water guns

Give me the ball that I wanted to go play with

Bend your careers in half just like a blacksmith

I’ll answer the question to ya’ll have I got it made?

Not if a few of my homies betrayed and I’m afraid

I don’t know where to go and what to do with my life

I’m not like ninety percent of other people with a wife

Dear lord I promise that I will never give in to temptation

I know I owe you an answer and this is my explanation…

I just wanted to fulfil all of my dreams

Maybe I could of silenced all of the screams

Now I realise that life isn’t how it seems

Honestly just wanted to fulfil all of my dreams….
