Dolla & a Dream Lyrics

Just a dollar and a dream

But they charging us to sleep

Just a dollar and a dream

But they charging us to sleep

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Starving artist selling poems on the street

Journal carcass of the man he used to be

Reciting stanzas on the sidewalk for cathartic qualities

Convinced that angels tune into every syllable he speaks

Preaching just to keep himself from going off the deep-end

He kicks it with his homie's in the alley on the weekends

No fake friends but a handful are imaginary

All of them are down as fuck

See yo crew is the contrary

Airy like the loyalty in question

Peculiar type of artist really puts it in perspective

Beggars can't be choosers so he's asking in selectin

Quenching for a peace of mind

Can't calculate the qualitative

Keeping track of promises in fractions and decimal places

Hidden faces in the feelings that arise

Echo in his heart until finally he cries

Just a dollar and a dream

But they charging us to sleep

Just a dollar and a dream

But they charging us to sleep

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Me? Maintain a civilized composure

While casualties are ridden by tax-paying explosives

How naïve of me to fight for peace

Upset the belly of the beast

Who can't consume a byproduct

of his own goddamn streets

Feasting off the flesh of the unfortunate

Seasoned with debt, paired with despair

He puts a fork in it

He don't give a flying fuck

For that he is notorious

See, I'm just trynna figure out

Where this goddamn glory is

And why he always get an invitation

Got the means to free but steady

Enslaving the nation

More than meets the eye

See it's our minds they're subjugating

Break it outta bondage and they label us as "crazy"

Or conspiracy theorist solving a puzzle

Muzzle on the masses is a million dollar hustle

Fuck a racist-fascist bitch, these hands will burst your bubble

Empty your account and turn empires into rubble

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

Dollar and a

When the sky rains fire and the flood gates open

And there's no one left to lend it to

Will your dollar save you
