Life’s a Dream Lyrics by E-Nyce

Carpe Diem, Vol. I

0

[Verse 1]
Life is but a dream, I need my rest
Some don't sleep, 'cause sleep is the cousin of death
So they keep one eye open like CBS
But with only one eye, you’ll see BS
See, it takes two to bring life when you play creator
Father time could never work without mother nature
Sleeps the cousin, who branched out but never leaves
You can't grow without a cousin on ya family tree
Before ya fruit falls, start plantin' seeds
And when the rain comes, you wait for that great sun
Take ya roof off let it shine when that day comes
And keep dodgin' dirt naps 'til you take one
Life and death are two bullets from the same gun
The hand up above picks the angles it can aim from
We all dream big 'til our wake comes
As long as I'm alive imma dream on
[Hook]
Life is but a dream to me
Everyday the same stuff wonder if I'm ever gonna wake up
Don't know who to blame but, now its bout the money & the cream
When I wake up I’ll know what it means
Life is but a dream to me
Everyday the same stuff wonder if I'm ever gonna wake up
Don't know who to blame but, now its bout the money & the cream
When I wake up i’ll know what it means
[Verse 2]
Martin had a dream 'til they woke him
It was all a dream for B-I 'til they smoked him
Dream catcher came along niggas tried to ghost him
Knockin at the front door, window left open
A shot to a vehicle, a shot to a balcony
Oh what the irony, the dreams turned reality
A King's dream for shadowed by Malcolm's X
A BIG dream foreshadowed "Life After Death"
"Ready to die" it's whatever
When I wake up I pray I'm some place better
The earth like a woman who keeps hidden treasure
I had to grab a piece of this world when I metta, I'm pretty clever
Dreams come and go but on different levels
I got it backwards I've lived but I seen the devil
I feel like a puppet lookin for Gippeto
I hope I wakeup before they squeeze metal
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Cash rules everything around me, it's all about the cream
And thats what we chase in our dreams
Like a handful of squares pushin pyramid schemes
Who try angles to make space, build and take shape
Dreams get cold you got to keep the heat on ya
Think ya hot 'til somebody pulls the sheets off ya
You wanna milk the game, but it has codes
How you 'sposed to get bread when you lack toast
My friend used to live by his epiphanies
Now it's a mystery what you can get from serendipity
Literally, doin diddly to causin trickery
Roamin like its italy and startin history
Life's a dream, I pray that I sleep often
When the nightmares arise then I'm sleep walking
I can't comprehend things that I've dreamt
So I plan to coin phrases 'til they make sense
[Hook x 2]
