Dream Big

[Intro: Akon (Crooked I)] See, I remember I was just a loner Looook at me (I dream, you dream, we all dream big dreams) (I dream, you dream, we all dream big dreams) I'm on top permenantly, but we stay in the streets And I won't stop bringin that heat, it's my dream, said it's my dream Ohhhh....... [Verse 1: Crooked I] I had a dream, I would rise to the top You haters like it or not, Who number 1?, I got my eyes on your spot The west coast treat me like I was 'Pac Now all I need is the whole world to bang *Crooked I on your block* I'm out the hood if you couldn't tell I've been shot at, stabbed, and put in jail I've been homeless in places you wouldn't dwell Feel these words as if they were put in braille I did not lose cause I knew that I couldn't fail Now on this track, me and Akon are cellmates My sixteen's so fly I call them jailbait And I'mma take us to the T-O-P Put this on G-O-D, homie this C.O.B [Hook: Akon] See, I remember I was just a loner, hangin' on the corner Now take a look at me I'm, big bossin' Steady stackin' chips, never thought that I would see this shit I'm on top permanently, but I stay in the streets And I won't stop bringin' that heat, it's my dream, said it's my dream Ohhhh....... [Verse 2: Crooked I] Late nights on the corner, Crooked had him a dream To drive a Maroon 5, call it Adam Levine Never mismanage the green cause that's vanishing cream I grind all night, am I man or machine?(heeeeeeyyyyy) I dream big like I was Kareem Biggs In my dreams all I could see was whips and mean cribs Love my momma, cause look what she did On her knees like, please God can you help me feed these kids To my deadbeat father, Crooked's your child You didn't raise me, you crazy, look at me now It's like I'm solar, everyday your sun's gonna come up Pops, if money talks, my pockets won't shut up Gotta work hard just to reach what you desire If you're like me, then I'm preachin to the choir Amen, in my region I'm Messiah, eastsider I'm the reason Long Beach is on fire!!! [Hook] [Verse 3: Crooked I] I had a dream I would win it all But when you haters get involved, you be dreamin' and prayin' to see a nigga fall Wait a minute ya'll I'm gettin' paper from Cali to Senegal than I spend it all in the mall I'm the rapper that the hood like to talk about The one the onliners would love to to write a blog about Fill a chat log about, cats wanna beef in my city, whats that all about Later I'mma dog'em out, dog...I'm out, giant blur Your eyes observe me, driving swerving flying spurts it's I and her She's my fly Hawaiian islander and I'm her sir She loves me, I never ran from nothing Even paralyzed people gotta stand for something And I stand on the block tryna get that green Moneymachine go bllllll-ding, yarrrrrramean??? [Hook] [Outro: Crooked I] I dream, you dream, we all dream big dreams I dream, you dream, we all dream big dreams I dream, you dream, we all dream big dreams I dream, you dream, we all dream big dreams Yeah...
