Imagine 2008 (Terry Urban Remix)

[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Two words: Chi-Town, Southside, worldwide
'Cause I rep that 'til I fuckin' die
One neck, two chains, one waist, two gats
One wall, twenty plaques, dues paid, gimme that
I am limelight, Blueprint, five mics
Go-Getters rhyme like should've been signed twice
Most imitated, Grammy nominated
Hotel accommodated, cheerleader prom-dated
Barbershop player-hated, mom-and-pop bootlegged it
Felt like it rained 'til the roof caved in
Two words: Chi-Town raised me, crazy
So I live by two words: "Fuck you, pay me"
Screaming, "Jesus, save me"
You know how the game be, I can't let 'em change me
'Cause on judgment day, you gon' blame me
Look, God—it's the same me

[Hook: D'Angelo]
Before we go, can you imagine?
With your ears, clear your mind, can you imagine?
Paint a picture in the sky, can you imagine? (Oh, heeee)
Lord have mercy, I've been dreamin' all my life

[Verse 2: Busta Rhymes]
[?]

[Hook: D'Angelo]
Before we go, can you imagine?
With your ears, clear your mind, can you imagine?
Paint a picture in the sky, can you imagine? (Oh, heeee)
Lord have mercy, I've been dreamin' all my life

[Verse 3: Dr. Dre]
Imagine it never happened
Imagine no rappin'
Imagine niggas trapped imagining having action
Imagine how these niggas could be actin' if we never got this shit crackin'
Imagine life's so hard
You can't imagine, it's like livin' in the City of God, you feel me?
Imagine life on the yard
Or tryna get that dollar on some shitty ass job
Imagine Biggie with his son
Imagine Pac gettin' called "Pop" by one
Imagine a mother struggling
Dealing with a system that don't give a fuck about who shot her son, hm
Imagine life where you can't win
When you get out of the ghetto and go right to the pen
When you get out to the pen, you go right to the gin
So if you get back to the streets, you go right back in, hm
Imagine Russell still struggling
No Def Jam, just another nigga hustlin'
And ain't no rocks on them fellas
Just rocks on them fellas, just tryna keep it bubblin'
Imagine niggas just stuck
From the East to the West Coast, everybody fucked up
I can't imagine no less
But it don't take imagination to know niggas been blessed with hip-hop

[Hook: D'Angelo]
Before we go, can you imagine?
With your ears, clear your mind, can you imagine?
Paint a picture in the sky, can you imagine? (Oh, heeee)
Lord have mercy, I've been dreamin' all my life
