[Verse 1: Jem Cooke]
Yeah
He'd been down for the glory
Just waiting out to be crowned
Did you ever think that this could be your whole life story?
On your way up, did you imagine coming down?
Or losing the life inside your heart?
Holding onto the echoes
I see you waiting there, waiting in the wings
Did you ever think you'd fall so hard into the shadows?
Did you never know how dark they could be?
They're taking the light into your eyes
[Chorus: Jem Cooke]
It's only a dream
And this is just the way it goes
It's only a dream
I think it's time you got to know
It's only a dream
It was never more than your lifе
It's only a dream (Na, na, na, na)
This is just the way, just the way it is
[Verse 2: Konan]
In a room full of еyes
Still tryna separate the truth from the lies
That feeling when you knew you were right
Like, it's either you do or you die
Tell that bitch "Don't ruin the vibe"
News just in, another suit and a tie
I can see myself getting used to this life
With you on my mind, Grey Goose on the side
Losing my sight in a room full of smoke
Then we do things that she usually don't
Move to her slow, I'm removing het coat
We can get... me and you, all alone
Stop acting, I know you wanna roll
'Cause I can take you where you wanna go
But all this talk ain't new to her though
Our little secret, who's gonna know?
[Verse 3: Krept]
If life was only a dream
And I done things different
Would I still be a young king?
Or would I get caught in the system
'Cause now I'm on the road
Sitting down and watching while she dropping to the floor
Will I see tomorrow? Truth is I don't really know
So help me, watch me throw the money while she up and down a pole
Oh no, I be getting dough
Getting all these girls, putting numbers in my phone
All I'm thinking 'bout is when I'm getting them alone
And then the way they drop it down, then they pick it up slow
G, we live in a dream
And I went from underground to flying overseas
See them haters looking when I step into the scene
But I don't even worry 'cause I would too if I wasn't me
[Chorus: Jem Cooke]
It's only a dream
And this is just the way it goes
It's only a dream
I think it's time you got to know
It's only a dream
It was never more than your life
It's only a dream
And this is just the way it is
And this is just the way it goes
It's only a dream
And it's time you got to know
