[Verse 1: ModernDayMazen]

In my mind is a genocide

I see two sides of it like a Gemini

Everlast pray I never die

But if they take me hope they don't forsake me

See lately I've been looking for the escape key

Playing Russian roulette left my gun off safety

Blaw! Shoot my thoughts down and make these

Dreams come true hope one day they awake me

Take me as high as the eyes can see

Fuck that take me higher

As high as we can

Stand for each man kneel to one kind

Praise to one god until the sunrise

Climbs from the west, sets on the east

Set to believe my sins to retrieve

Whether you gang bang with sets in the streets

It's all the same thing respect what you preach

Hold up - back like I never left

Kill the beat and the pussy it won't resurrect

A lot ya'll niggas fronting tryna get ahead

So keep my keep my eyes open I ain't never slept - keep it real

Hail Mary up in this bitch I play the field

Dale Mabry up in this bitch I aim to kill

Let's make a deal just pray the devil won't sign

If he do, it'll be hell of a good time nigga


[Chorus: Jose Santiago]

Oh, alright

See I can feel it close to me, close to me, close to me, tonight

And I said oh, alright

See I can feel it close to me, close to me, close to me, tonight

I'm feeling closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, alright

Closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, tonight

Closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, alright

Closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, tonight


[Verse 2: ModernDayMazen]

Who would have ever thought I would make this far?

Bright lights big city praying I don't get lost

Yelling lift off, take me to the Moon

If the spaceship full then they better make room

Man I remember Jennifer, lil Jenny on the block

Ice cold baby, lil Henny on the rocks

Remember when we used to hit up Denny's by the spot?

Little down time when you finish you yelling with your pops

Keep it cool girl you know I love you

Broke my heart I turned around and said fuck you

Sometimes I sit and think about what you been up too

Small town girl with no one to look up to, yeah I get it

See I was once there before, yeah I did it

Almost got stuck in the street, but I didn't

Took my first trip to LA, shit is different

Who would have known that I would really live it?

Man I do this for my niggas on the block who ain't got shit to pop

Sit and watch and just live through me

See you could find a way out this lot

Without rocks or a shot sit and plot and my nigga you'll see

I promise you'll be as big as Bruce B

But nah we don't want it if you let it Bruce Bruce hit it

Skeet skeet make the club get loose with it

You know I had to dumb it down for a cool minute

Now that you listening then let met get through with it

I know them dreams ain't lucrative but keep dreaming

See life is puzzle my nigga you need pieces

Them boys getting Madden these streets they need Steven

We need Jesus need gardens need Eden

We need reasons tell me why we see demons?

Like where the Angels? Where the prophets? Where a halos?

Like where the gold? Where do I go? Like where the rainbows? Ah!


[Chorus: Jose Santiago]

Oh, alright

See I can feel it close to me, close to me, close to me, tonight

And I said oh, alright

See I can feel it close to me, close to me, close to me, tonight

I'm feeling closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, alright

Closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, tonight

Closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, alright

Closer to my dreams, dreams, dreams, tonight


[Outro: Ray Lewis]

Hey Mazen, it's big brother Ray Ray

Listen here young man

Sometimes the only way to touch greatness is you must leave your comfort zone

Time time is now, the time is now

Show Lakeland what they produced

Show Lakeland the true direction that we need to go my brother

If the imagination is dim, you will never take that step

My brother, you took that step cause your imagination is great

It's bold, it's courageous

Make magic my man, be blessed boy

Love you for life, Lakeland for life
