Back before a dollar and a dream
Before I learned that life ain't what it seems
It's nothing like the movie scenes
Ironic how we make believe
And hope it makes us free
From everything
Back before a dollar and a dream
Before I learned that life ain't what it seems
It's nothing like the movie scenes
Ironic how we make believe
And hope it makes us free
From everything
Grew up out in Cleveland
With potholes and bullets screamin'
Where you can see the news in person 'fore it airs this evening
And we've been, just trying to make it through the weekend
And hope it breaks the ice of ends meeting
And then repeat it
That vicious cycle had my mother stealing
Medicine from stores
Too young to understand, when asking her for more
I guess that's what instilled in me to always settle scores
While never settling for less than everything I'm destined for
Just gotta manifest it
Even when your patience' getting anorexic
Don't bite the hand that feeds you, what about the hands requesting
The biggest thing I learned in adolescence
Is once you learn the rules, they add a lesson
Wish I could I go
Back before a dollar and a dream
Before I learned that life ain't what it seems
It's nothing like the movie scenes
Ironic how we make believe
And hope it makes us free
From everything
Back before a dollar and a dream
Before I learned that life ain't what it seems
It's nothing like the movie scenes
Ironic how we make believe
And hope it makes us free
From everything
As for the next chapters
Things were bad, great and worse after
Because the best hasn't occurred
But, let's see what this verse captures
A lot firsts' crashed and had an impact
Long before I had the words to match it
Imagine
The type of fortresses I've built
(Just laugh it off dawg)
Pursue relationships and hope it starts to wilt
(It just gets stagnant bro)
Lose touch with everything and wallow in your guilt
(You've lost your passion man)
Or choose to free myself from those who let it happen, still
Applying pressure 'till I'm bioluminescent
And Nobody Famous counterparts are rightly isometric
I never used to speak my mind so much I'd start to question
Why it took so long, my guess is, how I've dialed in perfection
Remembering how days went
Always cashed in how the days spent
With dreams much bigger than a day shift
And vivid scenes outside this spaceship
As I travel through the past
Just in case I don't make it
Back before a dollar and a dream
Before I learned that life ain't what it seems
It's nothing like the movie scenes
Ironic how we make believe
And hope it makes us free
From everything
Back before a dollar and a dream
Before I learned that life ain't what it seems
It's nothing like the movie scenes
Ironic how we make believe
And hope it makes us free
From everything
