Q-Strange - That Dream Lyrics
[Verse 1]Back in '88 the little neighborhood terrorStarted writin' rhymes back in hip hops golden eraMiddle school hallways was bustin' a flowI used to go by the name of emcee SnowThe music was a way to escape my painIn the box was Rah Kim or maybe Big Daddy KaneAs the years progressed I kept ownin' my craftBus stop kids would laugh white kids cant rapMy voice soundin' funny I was end the midst of pubertyAnd this whole hip hoppin' rap shit was new to me1990 made a demo age of 15It was my dream to just bust on the sceneFlat top fade, with the lines and designsRockin' hammer pants was the style at the timeKickin' my rhymes to anybody that would listenMy moms had my back and gave supportive criticism1992 I started rollin' wit a crewMy name was Mist Jinx and my partner Doc Seuss1993 bumpin' Tribe Called QuestPlayin' hooky downtown ***** a history testI had the cross colors gear with the hair up in dreadsAnd my friends, knuckleheads we was all good kidsRappin' over instrumental records on a cassetteWe ain't had no equipment if we did we'd be set'94 was the year moms passed onBouncin' place to place just tryin' to find a homeI Hooked up with JayD and Mo Duce and Nine 53rd floor productions man we dropped comin' live[Chorus]No matter what as the years went onI couldn't stop just writing these songsWhen nothin' went right and everything went wrongUsed the music to just keep onNever gonna stop no I must succeedNever gonna happen if I don't believeI got goals that I gotta achieveAnd until I do I'll never lose that dream[Verse 2]3rd Floor Productions and the group iLLriginals
