Dream Youngin Lyrics by Tee Grizzley
Life passin’ me by, I got so many plans, but I’m stuck in the slammer (Slammer)
Never seen no wishes get granted, but I done seen prayers get answered (Answered)
This was all God’s doin’, my nigga, I wasn’t a planner (Planner)
Real nigga, husband, father, rapper, gamer, trapper (Trapper)
Uh, not growin’ up with my moms and pops, I feel like I missed out on benefits
‘Cause my grandparents, they was old-fashioned, kind of cheap, probably why I was stealin’ shit
I’m a young nigga on the bus, seein’ other young niggas at the dealership
I was thinkin’ trap, that’s what all my role models did, I needed a mentorship
I was young, but knew he had big problems, old-ass car cuttin’ off at the light
Dollar menu all at McDonald’s, granny tellin’ us police just took mama
Me, my brother, my sister used to walk far away just to see big houses
Shit seemed so out of reach, but I’d go back home and I spent hours
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
When I finally found him, I kept talkin’ to him, I was stuck in the slammer (Slammer)
Never seen no wishes get granted, but I done seen prayers get answered (Get answered)
I thought it was over with when I went in that cage, all my college dreams went down the drain
All that be a doctor shit over with, now I don’t know if I’ma get out these chains
Got me some paper and wrote down my pain, I’m rappin’ to niggas, they like what I say
I did music ’cause wasn’t no other way unless I risk goin’ back to jail and I can’t
Countin’ time came, we got on our bunks, I started with years, I’m down on some months
Five in the morning and everybody slumped, but, nigga, I can’t ’cause, nigga, I’m up
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
I wanna thank everybody who ever supported my career, man
Y’all don’t even understand how much y’all changed my fuckin’ life
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
Dreamin’ (Dreamin’), dreamin’ (Dreamin’)
