The great shape like Heidi Klum, m*** I am on
(Life is but a dream)
(Life is but a dream)
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
My share of Roc-A-Fella Records and a shiny new beach chair
My physical's a shell, so when I say farewell
Too busy lettin' my voice vibrate
That's why I'm both saint and sinner, nice
(Life is but a dream)
(I hear my angels sing)
Permanent vaca', life is but a beach chair
Song's like a Hallmark card until you reach here
My soul'll find an even higher plain to dwell
Against my yesterdays and hope that she'll be okay
So I'm 'bout my paper, 24/7, 365
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
The heir, I will prepare
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
I just hope I'm hearin' right, karma's got me fearin' like
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
I'm not afraid of dyin', I'm afraid of not tryin'
(Life is but a dream)
I hear my angels sing
(I hear my angels sing)
I don't surf the net, no, I never been on MySpace
Chica, the corazon is what brought us home
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
A blueprint for you to print, a map for you to get back
(I hear my angels sing)
I let the wheels give a glimpse of hope and one's grind
A guide for your eyes, so you won't lose scent
I give up my share of Carol's daughter and a new beach chair
Well, winter's rough enough to interrupt life
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
I hear my angels sing
Full of prose so you won't get conned out of two cents
Benzes 'round corners where the sun don't shine
No compass comes wit this life, just eyes
(I hear my angels sing)
Just know that life is but a beach chair
Life is but a dream, can't mimic my life
(I hear my angels sing)
Hear my angel singin' to me, “Are you happy, Hov?”
(Life is but a dream)
I make it stink for you to think, I ink these verses
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
366 in a leap year
Colleek are you prayin' for me, for me?
(Life is but a dream)
(I hear my angels sing)
Life is but a dream to me, gunshots sing to these
I don't know why we here, since we gotta be here
Every day hit every wave like I'm Hawaiian
Sure books can guide you but your heart defines you
Carvin' out my space, in this world of fly girls
So 'til she's here and she's declared
So fly, you shall, so have no fear
(I hear my angels sing)
I'm the thinnest cut slice in a cut, the winner's cup
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
My last will and testament I leave my heir
Life is but a beach chair
For the sins of her father, so I barter my tomorrows
Went from havin' shabby clothes to crossin' over Abbey Road
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
Cutthroats and diamond cut ropes, I twirls
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
See, I got demons in my past, so I got daughters on the way
Son said, "Hov, how you get so fly?"
(I hear my angels sing)
If the prophecy's correct, then the child shall have to pay
Other guys but lullabies, don't mean a thing to me
This is Jay, everyday, no compromise
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
(I hear my angels sing)
So to map it out, you must look inside
I said from not bein' afraid to fall out the sky
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna leave
(I hear my angels sing)
Life is just a dream and they don't wanna wake up, wake up
And when I'm no longer here to shade her face from the glare
