CITY OF DREAMS
I'm on the run
Working for corn
Hustling ain't never been for the fun
I'm on the run
Working for corn
Back in school, no one asked me out for prom
Sent her a text and she left it unread
She wanted cake, all I offered was bread
She wanted chicken, all I had was egg
At the end of the day, without money, you dead
The city of dreams
It's glamour and schemes
Tryna make millions and couple of memes
Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems
Dazzling lights, spectacular themes
Gotta be focused, just stick with the team
Don't fall behind, you'll get caught in the scenes
Opportunities plenty and the land is the green
Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems
Was on my own
Not picking a bone
Content with my life
I'm not throwing a stone
Notes on my phones
Goals that I've thrown
Carry my pain and I never did groan
Yes I forgot plans that I've grown
Wanna be king but I gave up the throne
Till I met Ugonna out on a show
Then I remembered ambitions I burned
Stephanie had become a nun
Here I am and there's nothing I've done
Moana, she now is a nurse
Here I am looking like I'm a curse
Oroma works in a bank
My apartment's the size of a tank
Henderson now is a Doc passed the exams
All I passed was the mock
Gotten sick of this life in that I'm stuck
Never been one with the luck
I'm livin' inside an oversized box
Going to work in a tank top
If I'm a martyr, then life are the rocks
Unfortunately, I can't duck
My life is gloomy without any gleam
So I went to the city of dreams
The city of dreams
City of schemes
Beautiful place but it's not what it seems
I could not see
Refuse to see
Reciting hymns as I go there to sing
Yes I will rap, fufill my dream
Climb to the top and my name they will scream
Changing my looks from a simp to a pimp
My clothes will not carry cheap seams
The city of dreams
It's glamour and schemes
Tryna make millions and couple of memes
Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems
Dazzling lights, spectacular themes
Gotta be focused, just stick with the team
Don't fall behind, you'll get caught in the scenes
Opportunities plenty and the land is the green
Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems
Gotta be careful it's not what it seems
Don't fall behind you'll get caught in the scenes
Gotta be careful it's not what it seems
Don't fall behind you'll get caught in the scenes
Gotta be careful it's not what it seems
Don't fall behind you'll get caught in the scenes
My life is gloomy without any gleam so I went to the city of dreams
