Mike Dreams - We The Ones lyrics
rate meChorus:
Hey, I woke up early this morning with a loose state of mind
To create a rhyme without using lies and guns
Keep your nose at the sky, keep your heart to guide you
And keep your face to the rising sun
Cause we the ones
(Tryin to take a dollar out a...)
Cause we the one
(I swear I ... trying to.. more than trying to get clean)
Cause we the one
(It's time to show the world what we got..)
Live form the city where dreams ..
nobody know how to raise them
we are...
Amazing how I made it through the mazes
I'm only behind bars when you catch me on...
I've been patient, feels like I've been grinding for a lifetime
Knowing how to write rhymes, waiting for the right time.
When everybody had the...
And the best rapper alive had... hair
I was chilling in my room spot, rocking to my ..
and this music was a way to escape,
that's why I use it as a way to relate ... and get by
so the kids could go and start.. in the sky.
This music of my mind is what I'm using for the grind
till the day they get to see the sunshine, one time
Chorus:
Hey, I woke up early this morning with a loose state of mind
To create a rhyme without using lies and guns
Keep your nose at the sky, keep your heart to guide you
And keep your face to the rising sun
Cause we the ones
(Tryin to take a dollar out a...)
Cause we the one
(I swear I ... trying to.. more than trying to get clean)
Cause we the one
(It's time to show the world what we got..)
Uh, reminiscent about life on songs that I record
I remember .. brand names, hoping we could afford 'em
But my dad asked me what's more important
I could give you... or pay this house morgage
We ain't poor, but don't get your priority ...
Now I'm grown, I finally get the importance...
Told me it wasn't about...
More about making dough, doing what you gotta do
Don't forget...
Used to get ridicule, but it's the same old dude
...every week they got the brand new shoes
But then I can't afford dues, I'm trying to pay my shoes.
Move up, like the...
...for putting the ghetto citizens
It's for my cousins and people ...
I know I'm representing their mission for better living
Chorus:
Hey, I woke up early this morning with a loose state of mind
To create a rhyme without using lies and guns
Keep your nose at the sky, keep your heart to guide you
And keep your face to the rising sun
Cause we the ones
(Tryin to take a dollar out a...)
Cause we the one
(I swear I ... trying to.. more than trying to get clean)
Cause we the one
(It's time to show the world what we got..)
...working retail, dreaming to be a model in the clothes that she's selling
Baby, daddy was a felon and got locked up
Now shes single with no partner with a six old daughter ...
But she's going back to college..
Them dollars go coming in due time, cause right now they come in...
...get to a better life
and so we're working, and that's how it's gonna be
I've been in college five years without a college degree.
But I keep low, I know that I gotta pay back low
That's why I'm trying to get these money right
If it takes a hundred nights
Chasing the dreams I inspire to take 'em higher
cause I told ...
God willing, one day you'll get to see me soar
And I don't have to sell crack, that's what the CD for
Chorus:
Hey, I woke up early this morning with a loose state of mind
To create a rhyme without using lies and guns
Keep your nose at the sky, keep your heart to guide you
And keep your face to the rising sun
Cause we the ones
Cause we the ones
Cause we the ones
