A Dream

It was all a dream

Last night I had a dream

Thoughts was racin through my head

It was all a dream

Felt so real to me

This is what was said

Had a dream I said, 'bout who he said?

'Bout B.I.G. I said, that's B, I.G. he said

Dig he said, proceed he said

Indeed I said, so, breathe I did

Don't repeat what I say I said, he said nothin'

He agreed with his head, he just nodded like this

What I believe to be a yes I re-peated what was said

It came to me like a, well as even I said

"You feel playboy," was the greeting he said

First thing I wanted to know, what's the reason he was dead?

"More money, more problems, better believe it," he said

"Careful what you wish for you might receive it," he said

I see I said, jealousy I said

Got the whole industry mad at me I said

Then B.I. said, "Hov' remind yourself

Nobody built like you, you designed yourself"

I agree I said, my one of a kind self

Get stoned every day like Jesus did

What he said, I said, has been said before

"Just keep doin' your thing," he said, say no more

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up magazine

Salt 'n' Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine

Hangin' pictures on my wall

Every Saturday, "Rap Attack," Mr. Magic, Marley Marl

I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped

Smokin' weed and bamboo, sippin' on private stock

Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack

With the hat to match

Remember Rappin' Duke? "Duh-ha, duh-ha"

You never thought that hip-hop would take it this far

Now I'm in the limelight 'cause I rhyme tight

Time to get paid, blow up like the,

Born sinner, the opposite of a winner

Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner

Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri

Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starsky

I'm blowin' up like you thought I would

Call the crib, same number same hood, it's all good

Uhh, and if you don't know

Now you know, nigga

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

Was it all a dream

It was all a dream

It was all

It was all, all a dream

It was all a dream

It was all, all a dream

It was all

It was all, all a dream

I see I said, jealousy I said

Got the whole industry mad at me I said

Then B.I. said, "Hov' remind yourself

Nobody built like you, you designed yourself"

I agree I said, my one of a kind self

Get stoned every day like Jesus did

What he said, I said, has been said before

"Just keep doin' your thing," he said, say no more
