About Dreams and Nightmares
This Intro sets the tone for the theme of Meek’s entire album, so literally that the song itself is broken into two parts. The beginning – an upbeat braggadocio depicting Meek’s ascension to the top (i.e. Dreams) – is juxtaposed by an anger-fueled tirade (i.e. Nightmares) midway through the track. To bring it full circle, Meek’s concluding bar of the Intro (“It was something ‘bout that Rollie when it first touched my wrist, Had me feeling .
Dreams and Nightmares Lyrics
[00:02.02] Ain't this what they've been waitin' for?
[00:05.39] You ready? Uh, uh
[00:12.01] I used to pray for times like this, to rhyme like this
[00:14.92] So I had to grind like that to shine like this
[00:17.90] In a matter of time I spent on some locked-up shit
[00:20.93] In the back of the paddy wagon, cuffs locked on wrists
[00:24.15] Seen my dreams unfold, nightmares come true
[00:27.00] It was time to marry the game and I said, "Yeah, I do."
[00:30.12] If you want it, you gotta see it with a clear-eyed view
[00:33.02] Got a shorty, she tryna bless me like I said achoo
[00:36.05] Like a nigga sneezed, nigga please, 'fore them triggers squeeze
[00:39.22] I'm gettin' cream, never let them hoes get in between
[00:42.36] Of what we started, lil' nigga but I'm lion-hearted
[00:45.40] They love me when I was stuck and they hated when I departed
[00:48.39] I go and get it regardless, draw it like I'm a artist
[00:51.45] No crawlin', went straight to walkin', with foreigns in my garages
[00:54.28] All foreign bitches ménagin', fuckin', suckin' and swallowin'
[00:57.39] Anything for a dollar, they tell me get 'em, I got 'em
[01:01.75] I did it without a album
[01:05.24] I did shit with Mariah
[01:07.84] Lil' nigga, I'm on fire
[01:09.85] Icy as a hockey rink, Philly nigga, I'm flyer
[01:12.75] When I bought the Rolls-Royce they thought it was leased
[01:15.48] Then I bought that new Ferrari, hater, rest in peace
[01:18.44] Hater, rest in peace, rest in peace to the parking lot
[01:21.61] Phantom so big, can't even fit in the parking spot
[01:24.87] You ain't talkin' 'bout my niggas, then what you talkin' 'bout?
[01:27.52] Gangstas move in silence, nigga, and I don't talk a lot
[01:30.62] I don't say a word, I don't say a word
[01:33.34] Was on my grind and now I got what I deserve, fuck nigga
[01:36.46] Hold up, wait a minute, y'all thought I was finished?
[01:39.47] When I bought that Aston Martin, y'all thought it was rented?
[01:42.49] Flexin' on these niggas, I'm like Popeye on his spinach
[01:45.48] Double M, yeah, that's my team, Rozay the captain, I'm lieutenant
[01:48.42] I'm the type to count a million cash then grind like I'm broke
[01:51.42] That Lambo my new bitch, she don't ride like my Ghost
[01:54.48] I'm ridin' around my city with my hand strapped on my toast
[01:57.38] 'Cause these niggas want me dead and I gotta make it back home
[02:00.40] 'Cause my mama need that bill money, my son need some milk
[02:03.40] These niggas tryna take my life, they fuck around, get killed
[02:06.46] You fuck around, you fuck around, you fuck around, get smoked
[02:09.43] 'Cause these Philly niggas I brought with me don't fuck around, no joke, no
[02:12.66] All I know is murder, when it come to me
[02:15.42] I got young niggas that's rollin', I got niggas throwin' B's
[02:18.55] I done did the DOA's, I done did the KOD's
[02:21.55] Every time I'm in that bitch, I get to throwin' 30 G's
[02:24.58] But now I'm hangin' out that drop head, I'm ridin' down on Collins
[02:27.67] They let my nigga Ern back home, that young nigga be wildin'
[02:30.66] We young niggas, we mobbin', like Batman and we're robbin'
[02:33.68] This two-door Maybach with my seat all reclinin'
[02:36.66] I'm like, "Real nigga, what up? Real nigga, what up?"
[02:39.83] If you ain't about that murder game, then pussy nigga, shut up
[02:42.51] If you diss me in your raps I'll get yo' pussy-ass stuck up
[02:45.65] When you touchdown in my hood, no that tour life ain't good
[02:48.64] Catch me down in MIA at that Heat game on wood
[02:51.58] With that Puma life on my feet like that little engine I could
[02:54.65] Boy, I slide down on your block, bike on 12 o'clock
[02:57.89] And they be throwin' deuces on the same nigga they watch
[03:00.72] And I'm the king of my city 'cause I'm still callin' them shots
[03:03.68] And these lames talkin' that bullshit the same niggas that flopped
[03:06.73] I'm the same nigga from Berks Street with them nappy braids, that lock
[03:09.88] The same nigga that came up and I had to wait for my spot
[03:12.75] And these niggas hatin' on me, hoes waitin' on me
[03:15.83] Still on that hood shit, my Rolls-Royce on E
[03:18.77] They gon' remember me, I say remember me
[03:21.47] So much money, have yo' friends turn in yo' enemies
[03:24.65] And when there's beef I turn my enemies to memories
[03:27.56] With them bricks they go for 40, ain't no 10 a key
[03:30.56] Hold up, broke nigga turned rich, love the game like Mitch
[03:33.85] And if I leave, you think them pretty hoes gon' still suck my dick?
[03:36.76] It was somethin' about that Rollie when it first touched my wrist
[03:39.72] Had me feelin' like that dope boy when he first touched that brick
[03:42.89] I'm gone
[03:45.44] Woo
[03:47.85]
[00:05.39] You ready? Uh, uh
[00:12.01] I used to pray for times like this, to rhyme like this
