lirik lagu emilio rojas - the dream
[intro: emilio rojas]
look, yeah
[verse 1: emilio rojas]
my first rap name was iced tea, that’s ’cause my family call me tito
i was seven, i ain’t know about the legend ice t, though
i was rhymin’ in the mirror for my sisters and my primos
that’s before my father left and we was livin’ with my tios
it was nine to ten of us in that crib, jump by san bidos
when the east side of my city felt like mini puerto rico
my tio learnin’ english just from watchin’ cartoons
beads is hangin’ in the doorway separatin’ the rooms
you see the cops in street clothes and know it’s stamped from they shoes
or how they rockin’ last year’s fashion like it’s new, huh
i had a crew i used to cypher with (used to cypher with)
and we ain’t care about gettin’ famous, we just rap because we like the sh~t
we rap because we love the sh~t
when tables during lunch and sh~t
my homies trapped and thought about bars when they was hustlin’
i wasn’t satisfied gettin’ bread to double it
they wanna buy supreme, i wanna buy supreme court justices
which means i need a hundred m’s, i had to get signed
my father left when i was ten, it was my job to provide
i saw my idols makin’ millions only off of they rhymes
that’s when i dreamt that what they got could be mine
[chorus: timothy bloom]
lookin’ out my window, humbly i stare
all that’s seceltered for still from a dream (dream)
dream
castles in the sky to oceans deep
such lucid feel
to what i believe
dream
[verse 2: emilio rojas]
look, i moved to brooklyn with my homie ezon
we were throwin’ shows like galapagos, we ain’t roam the streets (roam the streets)
yeah, that lead to tours overseas
we went from homes, but we saw warzones to warsol with polish freaks
no florida keys, if we had beaches, it’s hypothic sea
who need a law degree when it’s one to grieve between nas and me?
i used to call up green and plot my approach
but for me, ain’t n0body from the rocket that’s close
but every time that i went home, them people talked like i owed
and cats i never spoke with will ask to hop on my shows
they payin’ title too, ’cause we from the same place
but friendships, it’s just somethin’ that i can’t fake
and clout chasin’ is the one thing i can’t take
they tried to shake me down and ask for handouts like they were handshakes, huh
it made me feel like i should sanitize
from where sinners aim they cannons at the saints where they got cannonized
i pass the time with all the things they use to fantasize
been ignorin’ texts from my idols ’cause now they fans of mine
yeah, that’s what you call progression
and dreams change when every day, you get to build on your successes
yeah
[chorus: timothy bloom]
lookin’ out my window, humbly i stare
all that’s seceltered for still from a dream (dream)
dream
castles in the sky to oceans deep
such lucid feel
to what i believe
dream
