[Hook: Nas]
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams
Ghetto ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams
Ghetto dreams
Ghetto niggas' dreams
From the hood
[Verse 1: Common]
I want a bitch that look good and cook good
Cinderella fancy, but she still look hood
Butt naked in the kitchen flipping pancakes
Plus she trickin' off the dough that her man makes
We got our own handshake, her titties ain't fake
Fucking in the car cause we just can't wait
To get home, early in the morn' getting stoned
Pretty with her eyes low, money by her Bible
The type of bitch that BIG said he would die for
Is the type that I ride to stay alive for
Tats on her back, looking all tribal
She know shoes like she know survival
Well put together, she weathers the storm
Seen her brother die so forever she's strong
Hear Beyonce's song and she gotta perform
Whether fucking or fighting: we getting it on
[Hook: Nas]
[Verse 2: Common]
I don't even say shit, she can feel it
Eye talk's the realest, toenails acrylic
Ass is a weapon and it's hard to conceal it
Baby in one arm, the other is a skillet
Fried chicken, macaroni, raised on the back of Stony
Ghetto Prince, she's my Apollonia
Like chick that had the back of Tony, Montana
Reminded me a me of my, of my mama
Knowing the drama like she know when to joke
Steal a nigga's squares, not wanting me to smoke
I poke my head out of Benzes
My tweets is the streets that I know who my friends is
Endless love for the money, power and clothes
My ghetto housewife watch reality shows
She might get to snapping when the cabinets ain't closed
When the cameras start snapping, she's ready to pose
[Hook: Nas]
[Verse 3: Common]
At the movies, she ain't scared to pull my dick out
Big dreams to move things to a big house
Homie love to see her comin' outta Bloomi's
Face opposite of gloomy, ah, what it does to me
Sunday morning at church, she covered like a Sunni
Come back home singin' "shine your light" like Umi
Truly, truly, she glow, won't check a nigga phone
Even when I roam, I still know where home is
The type you want raising your kids
If I'm taking out the garbage, she's stay in your ears [?]
She knows sacrifice and Flashing Lights
Street and the fashion life, her you can ask advice
About anything, she might get a ring
Got a lot of siblings, money, she can get it cleaned
Reminding me of a broad that I took to Evergreen
Money plus a good chick, that's a hood dream
[Hook: Nas]
