(Yeah)
Hey, hey (hey, what's up, man? Ayy, uh)
(Yeah, got a dollar and a dream)
Yeah, yeah (ayy, look, man, can I, can I get on, can I just get on this bus?)
I got a dollar and a dream, yeh (all I got is a dollar-fifty, I'm just tryin')
I got a dollar and a dream
Real niggas on my team (I'm just tryna get, I'm tryna get on the bus, man)
Everything ain't what it seem (I ain't got no mon-)
Yeah, I got a dollar and a dream, hey (all I got is a dollar-fifty)
(I don't got two dollars, man, what the fuck, man)
Yeah, ayy (fuck you and your bus, nigga)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team (yeah, uh-huh)
Everything ain't what it seem (uh)
Niggas hatin', but I love 'em even though they tryna scheme
But I'm past that (past that)
A nigga's stock is rising like the NASDAQ (uh-huh)
They say I'm the future, but yet I'm givin' niggas flashbacks
Of better days when you ain't have to settle for whatever played
I represent the struggle, nigga, I say what they never say
Whenever they spit that bullshit they spittin'
This that pulpit, I'm hittin' niggas with the gospel (and the Lord said)
Hostile with them hoes, I got a dollar in my pocket plus a dream
Yeah, you laughin', my nigga, but everything ain't what it seem
What it mean to know your mama or your father on that pipe?
On that hard white, I'll tell you what them scars like
I'm speaking through these bars like a nigga in the jail
Tired of siftin' through my mail, I feel like Cartwright
Bills, for real, a nigga ill (bills and bills and bills)
Just let me do the talkin', man, I know how niggas feel
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain't what it seem, ayy (goddamn, nigga)
(If these motherfuckin' bill collectors don't stop callin' me, man)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain't what it seem, ayy
(Can't even goddamn turn on my phone without these niggas ringin' me up)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain't what it seem (and I'm dreamin')
(They tryna call me from different numbers and shit, tryna) yeah
Got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team (tryna fool me, nigga)
Everything ain't what it seem (and me, I'm dreamin')
Yeah (I'm lil' Cole, nigga)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain't what it seem
Every lady ain't no ho and every bitch sure ain't no queen
Every nigga ain't no dog and every nigga ain't no king (uh-huh)
Shit be happenin' for a reason, everything is everything
Every nigga can't dunk, some white men can jump
They shootin' niggas 'fore they even tell 'em put they hands up
Crooked cops got a nigga scared to drive
Probably thinkin' that I'm slangin', man, I see it in they eyes
But inside of my pocket is a dollar plus a dream
Yeah, you swear your girl is faithful, everything ain't what it seem
See, I seen how she glanced and looked away like she want it
I ain't sayin' I'ma fuck her, but I could if I wanted
Know it hurts that she flirt with a nigga, this is worse
I bet if I was to hit it, man, I wouldn't be the first (nah)
This is church, this is gospel
Spit it like I get it from the Bible for your survival (and the Lord said)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain't what it seem, ayy (yeah, ayy, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain't what it seem, hey (uh, uh, uh, uh)
I got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team (wait 'til I get my money ri-)
Everything ain't what it seem, yeah (and I'm dreamin')
I got a dollar and a dream, yeah (wait 'til I get my money right)
Got a dollar and a dream, check it (and I'm dreamin')
Ayy, Sallie, I know I ain't been answerin' your calls (aw, not this bitch, yeah)
But shit, let me explain
It's because times been hard (I can explain, I can explain)
Been runnin' 'round tryna find a job (I can't get no job)
I hear my phone ringing in the morning, 9 o'clock
And it's you (goddamn), can't even front, I press ignore (yeah)
I still got your letters layin' in my dresser drawer
You tellin' me 'bout all the things you did for me (I know, I know, I know, I know)
When I was broke, you sent me dough and that was big for me (I know, I know, big for me)
See, you was there every year when I needed you (uh-huh)
And you were so quick to give, I had to be with you (Goddamn)
Remember when I used to call you on your phone line? (1-800)
I knew it was official when my mama cosigned (yeah)
But in no time, a nigga graduated
I hit the real world, baby girl, I'm sad to say it
But I was usin' you, you gave a nigga major stacks (major stacks)
And I know in my heart one day, that I'm gon' pay you back
I'm gon' pay you back, look
Can we, can we set up some type of payment plan or somethin', like? (Sallie)
(I got a dollar and a dream)
You know what I'm sayin'? Like, you know? (I got a dollar and a dream)
I just graduated six months ago so you know
Times is kinda, times is kinda hard, baby, I (everything ain't what it seem)
Can I just pay you like a lil' bit right now and then I'll pay
I'll pay you the rest next, next month when I, when I get paid
Can I just do somethin' like that?
I'm not even, I'm not even gon' lie to you
I don't, I don't really have it right now, how much?
I gotta pay how much?
Five thousand dol-, oh, bitch, is you crazy?
Bitch, you lucky I even answered the phone
I shouldn't have even picked up this motherfucker, I sh-
Look, what's your, what's your name?
Can I, can I speak to a manager?
You are the manager? Look, look can I speak to your manager?
Who's, who own this motherfucker? Let me talk to the owner
Goddamnit, I ain't, y'all niggas crazy
