lyrics

Jimmy had a pocket full of dreams but
It was tearin at the seams, see the plan was
Marry Jenny, make money, Smoke bud everyday save the world and become a better human being
But he forgot about one thing….then he forgot about another
Jimmy lost Jenny, struggles to make money, he never saved a thing and always fights with his baby mother
But he still smoke bud tho
Reminiscing of the times when he was a Street King like Ludlow,
He used to say “one of these days everything gon change But for now lemme take another hit of this bud yo….”
And as he drifts the sandman starts to sew the rip in his pocket
So that his dreams won’t be forgotten
But, soon as Jimmy wake he pull apart the thread and so his dreams just slip out the bottom

- HOOK -
So tready softly
for you tread upon my dreams (x2)

As Jimmy slips away into the night
He en-ters a world where he’s got a baby girl and a wife?
And all the misery that used to be….is now outta sight
"Am I outta my mind?Thought Jimmy “Can this really be true?”
“Yea and I got a job that I love and a beach house too”
Said a voice from behind him “What’s up Jimmy, I’m the other version of you."
Back when you was droppin college I was steady droppin knowledge
Still puffin but, not a slave to ganja
Never wasted anymore of my time with Jenny
Instead of chasin a dolla I was chasin a penny for your thoughts
Which brought me all of those things you saw
But, none of these things evolved….
I was a dream but you let me fall ….
so now while you walk….. please tread soft… “

Cold Sweat, Clawin at the air tryna catch his own breath
“What a nightmare” he says
Stares at the mirror and expects his reflection
But what he gets is a foggy vision instead
Silhouette of a hooded gentleman standin in front of him
begins tellin him, “Wanna see what’s next?
Be at ease, don’t fret. My name is Jimmy and I gonna show you everything that hasn't happen yet.“
You graduated from green and got a PhD in meth,
Nobody wanted that drama so everybody left
You got evicted cause' you couldn’t pay the rent
I’m assuming you get the picture, so lemme digress
Boy you betta fix yo step
If not well then you already know what’s next
So when you look in the mirror, don’t ever forget
To just and take a step back and reflect.
