Check Your Message (Interlude) Lyrics by Abstract

Dreaming With Eyes Open

2012

[Intro]
Yeah, alright
Here we go
(Bayani Music!)

[Verse 1]
Never idolize people, 'cause you then put yourself beneath 'em
Slows down productivity, thinkin' you'd never reach 'em
You gotta believe in the dreams that you been conceivin'
If you keep lookin' long enough, that's what you will be seein'
They'll tell you that it won't work
They're wrong, but the hate hurts
Those who that thought that it'd easy goin' leave the game first
'Cause they release a mixtape, find out that some people hate
But when entering the game, they thought the world would think that they were great
'Cause they released a couple songs, got a couple local plays
Now they think they're magically not win the draw for global fame
Nah, you gotta go and do your shit different
Sure, I make songs about parties, money, and women
But those who make it also touch down on human condition
Pinpoint your situation and how you feel with percision
Makin' you relatable, and thus magnetizing listens
Fans findin' a little of themselves within your writtens

[Break]
You gotta talk what's below the surface
Like, not just the chains, the clothes, all that shit
Like, people see that—they, they don't need to be told that
You gotta talk about what people can't see
That's what music is

[Verse 2]
Instead of money, now the whole movement is soul-driven
'Cause music was never meant to go talk about obvious
We see your chains, girls, and drugs
Son, we ain't oblivious
How 'bout we hear 'bout what goes on below the surface?
'Bout how you ain't doin' shit, and your writtens ain't worth it
'Cause in fifty years, you think your music will still have a purpose?
Probably not, your second album probably flops
And now you blown all the cash you made and you think you're hot?
Ha, stop
Think about what you're promoting
These rappers put a lot of shit on they covers but never open
That's why I'll try to change that as soon as I get my moment
The plan's all here, this is Dreaming With Eyes Open
