[00:00.560][Intro]
[00:01.157]Old school flow
[00:07.578]Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
[00:10.921]They used to say
[00:13.683]They used to say
[00:16.404]This rap shit
[00:20.435][Chorus]
[00:21.029]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[00:23.841]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[00:26.029]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[00:28.499]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[00:31.750]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[00:34.434]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[00:36.701]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[00:39.482]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[00:42.465][Verse 1]
[00:43.326]Yeah, I remember it so clearly, rappin' to my pop
[00:46.108]About the cars and the clothes, shrimp and the lobster that I heard about
[00:50.171]Like word of mouth
[00:51.044]The UGK tape and Scarface will turn ya out
[00:54.372]I was like thirteen thirsting for a good beat
[00:56.594]Scoping for a studio talkin' bout I spit heat
[00:59.340]Like Ball & G, on that pimp-type shit
[01:02.310]Three 6 had me crunk on that late night tip
[01:05.093][Chorus]
[01:05.987]They'd say (He's dreamin')
[01:08.207]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[01:10.814]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[01:12.221]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[01:15.285]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[01:17.948]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[01:20.311]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[01:22.883]This rap shit (Is not for real), yo, yo, yo
[01:26.123][Verse 2]
[01:26.748]I played ball for a minute, did I mention, wasn't in it?
[01:29.781]Writing rhymes on my glove so I won't ever forget em
[01:32.232]Had to quit it, didn't feel it back in high school
[01:34.716]Rather write poems, known for flowing, that's what I do
[01:37.483]Couldn't be little Zac forever, peace to my big brother
[01:40.217]Follow your dreams, baby, that's word to my grandmother
[01:43.062]Well, I hear the streets tappin' out beats, kickin' my flow
[01:45.842]I overhear the same shit they always say before
[01:48.592][Chorus]
[01:49.216]That (He's dreamin')
[01:50.625]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[01:52.869]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[01:55.342]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[01:58.592]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[02:01.425]They used to say (He's dreamin')
[02:03.624]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[02:06.344]This rap shit (Is not for real)
[02:09.060][Verse 3]
[02:10.453]I told 'em call me KRIT, they told me change my name
[02:13.216]Don't be alarmed if you don't make it, that's just part of the game
[02:15.747]Besides, I ain't rapping 'bout dope nor did I sell it
[02:18.530]I guess the story of a country boy just ain't compelling
[02:21.311]A&Rs searching for a hit, I just need a meal
[02:23.780]Couldn't afford to pay the rent, but passed up on the deal, 'cause
[02:27.138]It wasn't right, sometimes you gotta wade the storm
[02:29.342]In a class of my own, but I was scared to raise my arm, like
[02:32.374]This my dream, this my life, I sacrificed it all
[02:35.150]Except my soul in the firm belief there is a God
[02:37.890]Watching out when all the others used to doubt
[02:40.156]Felt my pain and pointed down and said, "Son, your time is now"
[02:43.497]I think my grandma pulled some strings on the low
[02:45.701]But that's between her and the Lord, I'll never know
[02:48.544]For those that caught me in the Spin, in Complex magazine
[02:51.016]XXL, the Vibe and whatever in-between
[02:54.280]It's safe to say that dreams come true, I guess
[02:56.779]Don't let nobody tell ya, try for yourself
[02:59.513]Just know that I was once considered just a dreamer
[03:01.983]But I paid my dues and turned so many doubters to believers
[03:04.779][Pre-Chorus]
[03:05.438]They used to say
[03:07.405]They used to say
[03:09.890]They used to say
[03:12.623]They used to say
[03:14.641][Chorus]
[03:15.575]He's dreamin'
[03:17.781]He's dreamin'
[03:20.357]Is not for real
[03:22.810]Is not for real
[03:26.426]He's dreamin'
[03:28.615]He's dreamin'
[03:30.849]Is not for real
[03:33.365]Is not for real
[03:36.379][Outro]
[03:37.004]I don't care if it is a dream
[03:41.911]I've got to believe in something
[03:46.037]my love
[03:47.489]What can I do?
[03:50.207]What have I got to lose?
[03:53.535]You know
[03:54.129]sometimes dreams do come true
[03:58.256]Might as well be a dream— dream— dream— dream—
