Murs - Dreamchasers lyrics

rate me

[Murs]

I'm only 9, on the block

Bailin to the liquor store with 2 dollars in my socks

Say "cuz" when I talk, pants sag when I walk

Bumpin KDAY, just discovered hip-hop

I play Pop Warner and I love Transformers

But you see the big homey standin out on the corner

He got real guns, not the ones from G.I. Joe

He feared and respected like everywhere we go

Can't wait 'til I'm 10 and I get jumped in

You should see the tattoo he gave himself with pen

He did in the pen like 3 years ago

And he just got home, now he bigger than befo'

Liftin weights in the yard he, way too hard

Been shot 5 times, even let me touch the scars

I can ride in his car when I get from the hood

A fresh Iroc with a dope Kenwood

Two 15's and his curl on sheen

A big booty freak with some airbrushed jeans

Don't dis put the hood in your childhood dreams

Growin up these days ain't as easy as it seems

[Chorus]

We live life like death ain't a thing

Fear and respect we collect like kings

Relive stress with every breath I sing

And we all chase money cause we scared to chase dreams

[Murs]

19, almost 20 years old

Cut the baby curl, now I got an afro

Cornrows, some say french braids

Weed and robberies the only way I get paid

Couldn't slang crack, O.G.'s do that

So money hungry wouldn't front me a sack

That's why the old timers keep gettin jacked

I'm full time bangin ain't no turnin back

Dropped out of school, no G.E.D

But in these streets I'm a G-O-D

Enemies tell they B.G. stories 'bout me

A nightmare, when I'm off that P

That's why they always run when they see me in the street

Known to beat 'em down, straight take they heat

What about the police, man even they scared

When I see ya hit the block I put 2 in the air

... Got my momma scared of me

And she's the only woman tht would ever dare to love me

Respect from my peers, on the set 10 years

Bonafide so I hide my regrets and my fears

... On the front porch buzzin

High that's probably why I didn't even see 'em comin

5 rounds to the chest now I'm fightin for my life

Cause some fool from the other side, wanted stripes

{*beeeeeeeeep*}
