Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dreams, ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
From the 'hood
[Verse 2]
Yo, I want a bitch that look good and cook good
Cinderella fancy but she still look good
Butt naked in the kitchen, flipping pancakes
Plus she's drinking all the dough that her man makes
We got an old handshake, her titties ain't fake
Fucking in the car 'cause we just can't wait to get home
Early in the morn', getting stoned
Pretty with her eyes low, bunny bye viable
The type of bitch that Big said he would die for
Is the type that I'd rather stay alive for
Tats on her back, looking all tribal
She know shoes like she know survival
Well put together, she weather the storm
Seen her brother die, so forever she's strong
Hear Beyoncé's song and she gotta perform
Whether fucking or fighting, we getting it on
[Verse 3]
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto ****'s dreams
From the 'hood
[Verse 4]
I don't even say shit, she could feel it
I toss the realest, sold nails acrylic
Ass is a weapon and it's hard to conceal it
Baby in one arm, the other is the skillet
Fried chicken, macaroni, raised on the black and stoney
Ghetto prayers, she's my abalone
Like sugar had the back of Tony Montana
Reminded me of me, oh my, of my mama
Uh, no into drama like she know when to joke
Still, a **** swears, not wanting me to smoke
I poke my head outta Benz's
My sweet tears the streets
And I know who my friends is
In this love for the money
Power and clothes
My ghetto housewife watch reality shows
She might get to snapping if the cabinets ain't closed
When the camera snap-snapping, she ready to pose, uh
[Verse 5]
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto ****'s dreams
From the 'hood
[Verse 6]
I know these are my flaws when it come to writing rhymes
Subject matter be changing too quickly at times
So I keep it strictly 'bout dimes and stick to the story
Call me a pro in the pussy category
Had explicit experience as I shouldn't mention
For me, getting women turned from sport to addiction
Powerful women playing the roles of submission
Lawyers on leashes, congresswomen inflicting
Pain onto my gave, wanted and I'm sadistic
They liked it, they dyked it, device's twisted
Till I get a nice chick that get me on some nice shit
Crib raising kids, slap a door behind a white fence
But I'm still single, looking for Cleopatra
African Queen, yo, look at me, I'm a bachelor
Y'all ****'s in trouble, keep your girls behind closed doors
Cross your fingers, be happy I haven't chose yours
She love glamour, bought her Vera Wang sandals
Valentino bag, this my etiquette
My manner's half hood, half class
Photographers, cameras
Caught us out there in the spotlight, hope she can handle
She can join me red carpet at my next nonprofit
Event having sponsored by some alcohol product
Jumping out a Bentley with some fresh red bottoms
You live your dream with me when you was just in the projects
[Verse 7]
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto-ghetto dreams
Ghetto ****'s dreams
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto-ghetto ****'s dreams
From the 'hood
Dream
