It Was Just A Dream Lyrics

A father deal's on his streets

One of the customers was his aunty

It only took a couple weeks

For him to gain attention

The dealer goes to his apartment

His girl tells him the kids are starving

So he's goes to the bodega

To put something on the table

But he's being watched undisclosed

The plan is get his money and go

So he's followed back home

As he unlocks the door

And as he goes inside

The robber's about to slide

He likes to take his time

19 minutes go by

His shawty cooking on the stove

But there's a knocking at the door

It's like his kid knows

Something is wrong

So he goes to another room

Before the door is opened

His parents are at gun point

His mother crying and screaming

His father begging and pleading

The kid grabs the gun from the drawer

The kid is ready to blow it

The robber and him meet eyes

It's about that time

To figure out who'll be firing

The father has no time to decide

Two bullets leave the barrel

But three bodies hit the floor

But only two bleed

The robber looks up to see

The dealer on top of him

The bullet he jumped in front of it

The dealer knows he's paralyzed

He cries the name of his child

But there's no response

The kid has four minutes til he dies

The robber looks traumatized

Seeing the boy's dying eyes

Who do you call in these trying times

But I wake up haphazardly

Realizing it was just a dream
