I Just Wanna Be
So, close But so, far away I just wanna be a dreamer I just wanna be a king I just wanna give us I just wanna be me, I just wanna be free I just wanna be (X3) Put on my Dre Beats when I don't wanna hear the world talkin' The walls closing in, the studio feel like a coffin But I resurrect myself every time like I'm Jesus Rather walk on water in the streets niggas dying for Yeezy's Niggas sleeping outside for them J's know how it feel to be homeless even if its just for a day Some of us bow our heads down when we pray, some of us bow our heads down so you can miss us with a stray I grew up with DeSean let that young nigga play Turn to run a slant let the bullet fly Zimmerman's way I did it Eminem's way, when I was sitting with Dre It was Aftermath or die then, Busta told me ride in Snoop told me if you a dragon go spit that fire then Game of thrones, I made my home inside that lion's den And all my enemies I don't know where to find them But me I got like nine in I just wanna be a dreamer I just wanna be a king SongtexteI just wanna give us I just wanna be me, I just wanna be free I just wanna be (X3) The son of Maya Angelou and Martin Luther But my daddy was a crackhead, my mom was a booster Born in the belly of Medusa with the killers and the three time losers These cops pursue us, thug gangs recruit us, to carry on some torch, they were taught, would improve us As the system maneuvers, they just feed us manure They living in paradise, we shoot it out in the sewer I call myself Stat to remind myself not to be a statistic As the kush get twisted my consciousness get lifted We party with devils, digging graves with dull shovels Diamonds on my bezel my grind on some other level I'm subtle but won't settle, all black clothes They say Stat you too ghetto, my pin wrapped in turbans My bombs, base and treble Fell asleep in hell, I woke up living my dreams I'm a rebel I just wanna be a dreamer I just wanna be a king I just wanna give us I just wanna be me, I just wanna be free I just wanna be (X3) I just wanna be a Dreamer, I see all these things with my eyes closed Woke up to reality, actually in fly clothes Life is such a gamble, I'm proof that the odds roll So anything we planning we do it colossal Hurt people that I know was dreamers, which means that just makes my grind meaner Let me turn my rhymes into a time machine and remind the people How dope these lines can be when you're tryna reach the higher league You seem to bleed through the soul to the choir speakers I am preaching, to the younger nigga I used to be And usually it's just inspiration that you can use to be Bigger than the world in a world where you are user free But still you live off of so much more than what you used to see But who the fuck am I kidding, this shit is even new to me (word) I got with Game, I got in the game, and I could chew a piece of this fresh cooked filet, I could eat it every day But I swear this the beginning, I be dreaming every day I just wanna be a dreamer I just wanna be a king I just wanna give us I just wanna be me, I just wanna be free I just wanna be (X3) Aus Songtexte Mania
