The Game

[Verse 1]







I woke up out dat coma, 200 and 1



Bout the same time Dre dropped 200 and 1



Three years the album is done



Aftermath presents: ***** Witta Attitude Volume 1



Rap critics politicin



Wanna know the outcome!



Ready to die,Reasonable Doubt and Doggystyle in one



I feel like Pac,after the Snoop Dogg trial was done



Dre behind the G-Series and All Eyez On Me



I watched the death of a dynasty!



So i told VIBE MAGAZINE



Workin' with Dr.Dre was a "DREAM!"



I had visions of makin a classic



Then my wall turned black,like i was starin outa Stevie Wonders glasses



Its kinda hard to imagine,like Kanye West



Comin back from a fatal accident, to beat makin and rappin



But,we da future



Whitney Houston told me that ,it's gon take mo' than a bullet in a heart to hold me back







[HOOK:]







Blushin in this 40 ounce



Lettin the ink from my pen bleed



Cuz Marthin Luther King had a "DREAM!"



Aaliyah had a "DREAM!"



Left Eye had a "DREAM!"



So i reached out to Kanye and "brough you all my dreeam!"







[sample playin "its cuz i love you!"]







[Verse 2]







I had dreams of fuckin an R'n'B bitch like Mya



When i saw dat ass on a front of that King



Read the article in a magazine



She loved gangsters,loved nasty things



So im the glass house havin' nasty dreams!



Good girls neva' give it up



But anything gets possible ,if 50 fucked Vivica



Heard of lifes obstacles,found my way through the maze



Then joy turned to pain like,Frankie Beverly and Maze



Used to dream about bein' Unsigned Hype



Till i was crushed my Dave Mase,almost let my pen fall asleep on a page



Daydreamin yesterday



Those on offback stage



I tought i saw Eazy talkin to Jam Master Jay



So i walked over heard Jam Master say



Its a hardknock life,then you pass away



They say sleep is the cousin' of death



So my eyes wide open cuz a dream is kin to ya last breath







[HOOK:]







Blushin in this 40 ounce



Lettin the ink from my pen bleed



Cuz Marthin Luther King had a "DREAM!"



Aalyah had a "DREAM!"



Left Eye had a "DREAM!"



So i reached out to Kanye and "brought you all my dream!"







[sample playin "its cuz i love you!"]







[Verse 3]







The Dream of Huey Newton, thats what im livin' through



The Dream of Eric Wright, thats what im givin you!



Who walk through the Whithouse without a business suit?



Compton had Jerry Curl drippin' on Ronald Reagens shoes



Gave Mike Lim my demo came here to pay my dues



Started of with Whoo Kid then i started blazin Clue



It was all a Dream like BIG sait it be



Dont sleep on me homie i BRING NIGHTMARERS TO REALITY



Rap Phenomenon defyin' the rulez of gravity



Studied all the classic start revisin my strategy



Cuz Marshall Mathers made it



Curtis Jackson made it



Head in the clouds wonderin where the hell Marvin Gaye went?



How do i say this,im livin for my son but i can't figure,why im at my temple with this gun



Wake up to a Jesus Piece like a Cathlic Nun



The War to be a rap legend had just begun'







[HOOK:]







Blushin in this 40 ounce



Lettin the ink from my pen bleed



Cuz Marthin Luther King had a "DREAM!"



Aalyah had a "DREAM!"



Left Eye had a "DREAM!"



So i reached out to Kanye and "brought you all my dream!"







[sample playin "its cuz i love you!"]
