A Dream

Was it all a dream?
Thoughts was racin' through my head
"What he said?", I said, has been said before
"'Bout BIG" I said, "That's big" he said
Was it all a dream?
Was it all a dream? Was it a dream
"I see" I said, "Jealousy" I said
"Careful what you wish for you might receive it," he said
Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri
Smokin' weed and bamboo, sippin' on private stock
He agreed with his head, he just nodded like this
"You feel playboy," was the greeting he said
("It was all a dream")
"Got the whole industry mad at me" I said
"I see" I said, "Jealousy" I said
Then BI said, "Hov' remind yourself
Call the crib, same number same hood, it's all good
Get stoned every day like Jesus did
Funkmaster Flex, lovebug Starsky
Was it all a dream? A dream?
Was it all a dream? Was it a dream?
It came to me like a, well as even I said
Was it all a dream? Was it a dream?
"Just keep doin' your thing," he said, say no more
Was it all a dream? Tell me
Now I'm in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
Was it all a dream?

Was it all a dream? A dream?
Get stoned every day like Jesus did

I gotta know
You never thought that hip-hop would take it this far
Time to get paid, blow up like the
("It was all a dream")
I'm blowin' up like you thought I would
Nobody built like you, you designed yourself"
"More money, more problems, better believe it," he said

Was it all a dream?
"I agree",I said, my one of a kind self
("It was all a dream")
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped
Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack
("It was all a dream")
Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
What I believe to be a yes I repeated what was said
"What he said?", I said, has been said before
("It was all a dream")

With the hat to match
Salt 'n' Pepa and heavy D up in the Limousine
("It was all")
"Dig", he said, "Proceed", he said
It was all a dream, I used to read word up magazine
First thing I wanted to know, what's the reason, he was dead?

("It was all")
"I agree", I said, my one of a kind self
Was it all a dream?Tell me
(It was all a dream)
Hangin' pictures on my wall

("It was all a dream")
Was it all a dream? Was it a dream
"Indeed", I said, so, breathe I did

Felt so real to me
Uhh, and if you don't know, now you know, nigga
Every saturday, "Rap attack," Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
("It was all a dream")
"Then be" I said, "Hov' remind yourself
This is what was said
I gotta know
Nobody built like you, you designed yourself"
"Don't repeat what I say", I said, he said nothin'
"Had a dream" I said," 'Bout who he said?"
Remember rappin' Duke? Duh-ha, duh-ha
Born sinner, the opposite of a winner
"Got the whole industry mad at me", I said
