A Dolla & A Dream (feat. Lucci) Video (MV)

In the land of milk and honey it cost to dream
Where everyone swears by carpe diem
Tho it's impossible cuz once ya gain steam
The rug gets pulled from under ya by the machine
Preaching the sky is the limit but it's just a ceiling mural
Combining real and fake like it's urban and rural
Guilty conscience got me feeling plural
Outta body experience talking to myself normal
That fake it till ya make it shit only does so much
This cliché seems to be the same ole crutch
Cuz it don't strike gold or give ya the Midas touch
Life is like a manual vehicle without a clutch
Inching forward tryna go a mile per hour
Wilting every second like a withering flower
Caught in a hurricane thunderstorm rain shower
While I'm tryna put in work without power

Okay, I've been working harder than a bitch
To give up would be hitting a kill switch
Self destruction, on my last meal shit
And I'm not ready for that Not giving up on rap
Not ready to tap
All I need is a dollar & a dream no cap
Sit back and watch me snap hoe
Talk down at me and that's a wrap hoe
All my people real
While you living in a rat hole
My people build me up so we can relax bro

All I got is my balls and my word plus a dolla and a dream
Rocking clothes that are splitting at the seam
Wit money on my mind hoping I can redeem
To update myself like I was sponsored by supreme
Do I follow my mind, my heart or my gut
If I wait too long then I won't make the cut
It's got me crazy as an institutionalized nut
Cocky and confident when I start my strut
Walking a thin line that's too tight to pluck
One touch it'll pop and I fall down in the muck
Then get pulled down like quicksand then I'm stuck
Tryna pry myself out but I'm having zero luck
I can see the finish line and it's in the distance
But I get turned around and feel some resistance
Tho I'm a patient person wit persistence
It's time for me to step out and show my existence

I've been working harder than a bitch
To give up would be hitting a kill switch
Self destruction, on my last meal shit
And I'm not ready for that Not giving up on rap
Not ready to tap
All I need is a dollar & a dream no cap
Sit back and watch me snap hoe
Talk down at me and that's a wrap hoe
All my people real
While you living in a rat hole
My people build me up so we can relax bro

Where do I go from here I surely don't know
Do I follow the familiar path and go wit the flow
Or take the fork in the road back to the show
Or make my own way to ensure that I grow
I'm still stuck between a rock and a hard place
That feels like I'm in a never ending car chase
I'm far behind unable to reach the home base
When the spotlight hits I'm not there to show face
See I'm tryna be that hard act to follow
But this humble pill ain't easy to swallow
No sorrow but this time I cannot borrow
And my pride won't let me just sit around and wallow
I'm taking advantage of every situation
Shit's gonna change starting wit this operation
I'm fixated on fixing this little sick fixation
Saying f*ck it I'm staying for the long duration

I've been working harder than a bitch
To give up would be hitting a kill switch
Self destruction, on my last meal shit
And I'm not ready for that
Not giving up on rap
Not ready to tap
All I need is a dollar & a dream no cap
Sit back and watch me snap hoe
Talk down at me and that's a wrap hoe
All my people real
While you living in a rat hole
My people build me up so we can relax bro

What inspires ya motivation
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
I gotta dolla and dream
