Ghetto Dreams

[Intro: 2 Chainz & John Legend] Yeah, preach, preach My ghetto dreams always turn to ghetto nightmares [Verse 1: 2 Chainz] At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn Candlesticks in the dark, I was whippin' the hard I was gettin' the broads, they like "Who the hell is that?" I was dealin' sacks, you lookin' at a nigga that drove to Hell and back Charismatic, I was raised by an addict With money in the attic, got guns while you at it At this present time, I'm out of my mind and that's a habit Still got 'em waitin' in line, they gotta have it, yeah [Chorus: John Legend] Last night was the first night I got sleep (Oh) Tossin' and turnin' for two or three weeks (Oh) My nightmares are triggered by bad memories (Oh) Lord, send me an angel right now while I'm havin' ghetto dreams [Verse 2: 2 Chainz] Cold sweats listenin' to the old Sweat One, two, that's a whole check (One, two) Nah, for real, nigga this a whole check (Check) Just horsin' around, Polo sweats (Yeah) Used to dream 'bout a bigger couch (Uh) Woke up in a bigger house, c'mon Commas in my bank account So much money I had to let the banker count [Chorus: John Legend] Last night was the first night I got sleep (Oh) Tossin' and turnin' for two or three weeks (Oh) My nightmares are triggered by bad memories (Oh) Lord, send me an angel right now while I'm havin' ghetto dreams [Verse 3: Scarface] It's like the world stand still Yesterday your little man got killed And all he ever wanted was a bank roll But he died too young 'cause the game's cold Most niggas ain't know or they just think slow Once you get in, you gots to leave, but you can't though 'Cause freedom make a motherfucker evil To the point, down your ass when he see you Let's take that needle, fill it with poison Inject the ghetto with the drug, paranoia Got you lookin' at your homeboy sideways Ain't no honor among thieves, is it nowadays? They tell me crime pays, but I don't think so 'Cause every criminal I know is in the clink, yo A nigga in the game right now Must be workin' for them people 'cause that shit played out [Outro: John Legend] I lay awake in my four corner room, tinted candles Yeah My ghetto dreams always turn to ghetto nightmares
