Dreams and Nightmares

[Intro] These are dreams and nightmares These are dreams and nightmares Dreams and nightmares [Verse] Wakin' up in the mornin', can't remember the night Mind in a haze, got a vision of life In the ghetto, it's death or jail Dreams of gettin' paid I think about them days When I used to be on my knees, prayin' for a miracle Now we sellin' pharmaceuticals to put food on the table Ain't that what we supposed to do? I don't know All I know is I'm just tryin' to survive I'm just tryin' to provide I know I said I would try, but I lied [Pre-Chorus] Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself [Chorus] These are dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right Wakin' up in the mornin', can't remember the night Dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right Mind in a haze, got a vision of life Dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right In the ghetto, it's death or jail Dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right Dreams of gettin' paid I think about them days When I used to be on my knees, prayin' for a miracle Now we sellin' pharmaceuticals to put food on the table Ain't that what we supposed to do? I don't know All I know is I'm just tryin' to survive I'm just tryin' to provide I know I said I would try, but I lied [Pre-Chorus] Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself Can't help myself, can't help myself [Chorus] These are dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right Wakin' up in the mornin', can't remember the night Dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right Mind in a haze, got a vision of life Dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right In the ghetto, it's death or jail Dreams and nightmares I swear, this ain't right
