Baby girl told me in my sleep I was talkin |
| [00:02.73] |
So it's only natural I asked her "what I said?" |
| [00:05.62] |
She said she woke up when she heard |
| [00:07.97] |
But she was so damn tired she couldn't make out a word |
| [00:10.53] |
She said she was trying to see if eventually |
| [00:13.13] |
if I would scream the name of a bird |
| [00:15.21] |
I told her "that's absurd" |
| [00:17.27] |
And then gave her the face like "word?!" |
| [00:19.86] |
And then she replied "yeah" |
| [00:22.00] |
Said "it was quite weird", said she was type scared |
| [00:24.19] |
I said "that's the side effect |
| [00:25.90] |
that you get when you trade bad dreams for some great nightmares" |
| [00:29.06] |
When I close my eyes, I escape the poltergeist |
| [00:33.39] |
My escape from reality just what I needed |
| [00:35.50] |
Brings me to a place where shorty never cheated |
| [00:37.72] |
And even if she tried and succeeded |
| [00:39.83] |
In this other world I wouldn't even get heated |
| [00:42.49] |
**** the details, I don't care about why |
| [00:44.61] |
I'm chillin with my grandmother, she aint die |
| [00:46.82] |
I was browsing online and seen Mike on that banner |
| [00:49.04] |
And said "you can be like me and beat cancer" |
| [00:51.58] |
Anything I touched I feel |
| [00:53.81] |
Know its fiction but it seems so real |
| [00:56.09] |
Was leaving out the casino with a nympho |
| [00:58.47] |
Yes Ray it can be so simple |
| [01:00.72] |
Here's how I avoid problem with my kin folk |
| [01:02.98] |
Learn how to build me a house with no win |
| [01:05.30] |
dows.. and that's when I think I saw a ribbon in the sky |
| [01:08.74] |
but it wasn't from an in |
| [01:10.09] |
tro... cuz where I'm at there's no rumors or gossip |
| [01:12.52] |
but still got love for Miss In |
| [01:14.35] |
fo... she said in my sleep I be laughing, |
| [01:16.70] |
but shit seem funny to me |
| [01:18.70] |
My ice cream was 200 degrees |
| [01:21.12] |
If it dripped I'd get a hole in my dungarees |
| [01:22.85] |
See my animinoty is my protection |
| [01:25.50] |
And me and hip hop have no connection |
| [01:28.57] |
Which got me to reflecting |
| [01:30.45] |
Is that why the mirror don't show my reflection |
| [01:32.79] |
When I close my eyes there's no dollar |
| [01:34.85] |
So we can stretch that one as an excuse |
| [01:37.31] |
Of why folks do the things they do |
| [01:39.47] |
Or why people act so brand new? |
| [01:41.68] |
I had wings on flying outta prison with a ratchet |
| [01:43.97] |
Was only there cuz someone snitched |
| [01:46.36] |
No ones poor but no ones rich |
| [01:48.51] |
Just my way of creeping if life's a bitch |
| [01:50.82] |
Took a walk on the ceiling just to get my mind right |
| [01:53.13] |
That was yesterday... so in hindsight |
| [01:55.78] |
Since I was able to haul off |
| [01:57.85] |
I took it as God telling my I'll never fall off |
| [01:59.98] |
Got rid of the name brands and the jewelry |
| [02:02.61] |
Most people just use it as medicine |
| [02:04.85] |
Like it takes them somewhere they ain't never been |
| [02:07.64] |
But here you better off not better then |
| [02:09.47] |
Stuck in the room with an elephant |
| [02:11.57] |
Open the closet and dapped up my skeleton |
| [02:13.88] |
Had a convo with a man with no ears |
| [02:15.91] |
And all of a sudden everything became so clear |
| [02:18.28] |
Have no fear |
| [02:19.69] |
I just bought a first class trip to nowhere, everybody goes there |
| [02:22.94] |
But they don't stay the whole year, |
| [02:25.09] |
Me I got 365 shows there |
| [02:27.05] |
My girl said in my sleep I be walking, so I ask baby "where I go?" |
| [02:32.09] |
She said I be walking slow, |
| [02:34.26] |
She don't ever wanna get outta bed so she don't know |
| [02:36.62] |
I went to see a man walking on water |
| [02:38.91] |
Asked if he'd ever get things back in order |
| [02:41.25] |
I been there two years over a quarter |
| [02:43.49] |
But every time I open my eyes it's like torture |
| [02:45.96] |
He said "please I gave you a whole other world for you |
| [02:49.25] |
to go do with as you please |
| [02:50.53] |
Just so you appeased mixed with a couple of signs |
| [02:52.85] |
bout real life while you make believe" |
| [02:54.97] |
So I teleported outta there with a grin |
| [02:57.09] |
Met a bum with a mansion that invited me in |
| [02:59.37] |
Then we politiced about politics |
| [03:02.03] |
He mentioned def jam but I ain't acknowledge it |
| [03:04.05] |
I went to see a virgin with AIDS, |
| [03:06.34] |
yea I thought about smashing that |
| [03:08.20] |
Yea her ass was fat, so appealing |
| [03:10.23] |
Tattoo on her inner thigh that said |
| [03:11.94] |
"she was doin better then she was feeling" |
| [03:13.50] |
I think I seen shorty before, maybe in the club or something |
| [03:17.96] |
Maybe in VIP, but wasn't nobody there but me |
| [03:21.38] |
And the club was all red, and she started playing with my head |
| [03:25.54] |
And then I came |
| [03:27.15] |
Then I asked shorty whats her name and it was weird |
| [03:29.47] |
cuz she ****ed around and disappeared |
| [03:31.18] |
Like what a cruel joke |
| [03:33.78] |
Cig lit but from it was no smoke |
| [03:36.15] |
Flicked in the ashtray and seen Stack's face |
| [03:38.69] |
Slashed to a school hallway on a half day |
| [03:40.79] |
Was getting chased, couldn't tell by who |
| [03:42.91] |
Then the hallway turned into a cliff |
| [03:45.22] |
Screamin "piff" before I was dead |
| [03:47.58] |
Somehow I jumped my ass up out that bed |
| [03:49.73] |
Then baby girl told me in my sleep I was screaming |
| [03:52.02] |
So I said "that's a lie" |
| [03:54.39] |
She put her right hand in the sky |
| [03:56.63] |
And said "you was but I don't know why" |
| [03:58.28] |
Gotta go, goodbye.. |
| [04:00.15] |
