City of Dreams Lyrics

CITY OF DREAMS

I'm on the run

Working for corn

Hustling ain't never been for the fun

I'm on the run

Working for corn

Back in school, no one asked me out for prom

Sent her a text and she left it unread

She wanted cake, all I offered was bread

She wanted chicken, all I had was egg

At the end of the day, without money, you dead

The city of dreams

It's glamour and schemes

Tryna make millions and couple of memes

Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems

Dazzling lights, spectacular themes

Gotta be focused, just stick with the team

Don't fall behind, you'll get caught in the scenes

Opportunities plenty and the land is the green

Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems

Was on my own

Not picking a bone

Content with my life

I'm not throwing a stone

Notes on my phones

Goals that I've thrown

Carry my pain and I never did groan

Yes I forgot plans that I've grown

Wanna be king but I gave up the throne

Till I met Ugonna out on a show

Then I remembered ambitions I burned

Stephanie had become a nun

Here I am and there's nothing I've done

Moana, she now is a nurse

Here I am looking like I'm a curse

Oroma works in a bank

My apartment's the size of a tank

Henderson now is a Doc passed the exams

All I passed was the mock

Gotten sick of this life in that I'm stuck

Never been one with the luck

I'm livin' inside an oversized box

Going to work in a tank top

If I'm a martyr, then life are the rocks

Unfortunately, I can't duck

My life is gloomy without any gleam

So I went to the city of dreams

The city of dreams

City of schemes

Beautiful place but it's not what it seems

I could not see

Refuse to see

Reciting hymns as I go there to sing

Yes I will rap, fufill my dream

Climb to the top and my name they will scream

Changing my looks from a simp to a pimp

My clothes will not carry cheap seams

The city of dreams

It's glamour and schemes

Tryna make millions and couple of memes

Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems

Dazzling lights, spectacular themes

Gotta be focused, just stick with the team

Don't fall behind, you'll get caught in the scenes

Opportunities plenty and the land is the green

Gotta be careful, it's not what it seems

Gotta be careful it's not what it seems

Don't fall behind you'll get caught in the scenes

Gotta be careful it's not what it seems

Don't fall behind you'll get caught in the scenes

Gotta be careful it's not what it seems

Don't fall behind you'll get caught in the scenes

My life is gloomy without any gleam so I went to the city of dreams
