Big Dreams Video (MV)

You ever watch a dream manifest? (You ever watch a dream manifest?)
Real life
It's nothing like it (it's nothing like it, it's nothing like it)
DC2 (Allstar)

If you ain't got a dream, you ain't got nothin'
A lot of niggas changed on me when I got money
Said it come with the game and this what I wanted
So I'ma hustle like the first time I got fronted
For the love of the green
And the love of the team
Put together a circle they couldn't come in between
Went from lint in my pockets, to usin' money machines
I got my city back poppin' and they don't want me to leave
No, they don't want me to leave
But I gotta go and get it though
Time is money, and I'm on mission though
Papi gotta eat, niggas shootin' 'round my mama way
Cops run in my sister crib, I swear I gotta find a way
Tryna touch a million dollars and I'm like a dime away
Never asked a nigga for a hand, I'd always grind away
Write my lil' raps, smoke my lil' weed
Sold a lil' crack just to fund my lil' needs
I was sixteen, gettin' on my lil' knees
Askin' the Lord, "Please, help me get a lil' cheese"
It was hard out (hard out), same time it was yard out
In a jungle where niggas'll rip your heart out (heart out)
Cold summers where niggas'll prolly starve out
Wanna be a kingpin from watchin' niggas ball out
Could you blame us, they was tryna chain us
But we was tryna fix the roof leak when it was rainin'
We just tried to keep the house warm when winter came in
But they'd rather detain us
Lock us in cells with strangers to raise us
Animals go in cages
That's what the slave masters told the workers when they slaved us
(When they slaved us, when they slaved us, when they slaved us)

Small city (small city), big dreams (big dreams)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen, sixteen (since I was sixteen)
Since I was sixteen (sixteen)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (sixteen)

Small city (small city), big dreams (big dreams)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (sixteen, since I was sixteen)
Since I was sixteen (sixteen)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (since I was sixteen)

ROC man told us, "Sun don't shine"
You know if his daddy hustled, then his son gon' grind
His father was locked up, now the son doin' time
When certain niggas get to starvin', know that gun gon' shine
Two felonies on his record, he got one more time
Get a app, picture that, he don't want no job, lost hope
Some niggas don't even want no God
They just want a lil' money just to come through fly
'Cause nobody never listens to the broke nigga
'Cause when you broke, you considered as a joke, nigga
If you a joke, you considered as a ho, nigga
And no nigga wanna live life livin' po', nigga
Small city (city, city), big dreams (dreams, dreams)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen
Sellin' white girl, I'm talkin' Christine
Young boy with dreams of touchin' that big screen (big screen, big screen, big screen)

Small city (small city), big dreams (big dreams)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (sixteen, since I was sixteen)
Since I was sixteen
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (sixteen)

Small city (small city), big dreams (big dreams)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (sixteen, since I was sixteen)
Since I was sixteen (sixteen)
I've been waitin' on this day since I was sixteen (sixteen, sixteen, sixteen)
