Twisted Dreams (feat. Jay Eletronica, Joe Flizzow, DJ Wegun)

This the type of verse feel it in your bones and joints

Get up on the beat speak then we go anoint

That masses take it H1GHR like we smoking joints

So many ‘J’s at one label boy you know we scoring points

Yeah, surrounded by villains demons sinnin’ I feel alone

I ain’t perfect but far from worthless though you feel my soul

Ignorant mindset had me boxed in but see I have grown

Into a king so supreme, I ain’t talking clothes

Wake up and smell the Folgers

It’s colder than shoulders winters In Minnesota

When we trying to be a soldier

Intent on winning wars they taking shots but still they sober

Not me, born nice politeness rooted in my culture

This is Hip-Hop where the impossible can happen

Where rappers bicker over petty shit instead of rapping

Where an Asian kid can put his whole city on, like really on

And still be around monsters, I ain’t talking Digimon

Ooo, I’m a bad man gimme the loot

Only rappers I look up to are probably Hov and Trae Tha Truth

Everybody else is cool and I respect your grind

And even if we different, do me the same and respect mine

Nobody’s perfect, we’re all human beings

That don’t stop us all from becoming kings and queens

Kind hearted gangsters, crooked cops and wicked screams

Beautiful hope turning into twisted dreams

Twisted dreams, twisted dreams

Not everything is as it looks or as it seems

Twi-twi-twi-twi-twisted dreams

Not everything is what it is or what it means

Ever since I was a young lad I thought I was odd

Step out on faith they said, huh, I thought it was lies

Cause when I took a few steps

I got bad calls from the refs

And every few days

I’m looking for ways to cheat death

But look at me now, I’m in front of you live

You gotta believe, you can’t keep running from God

My nigga James said, "Brother, it’s time to give them hell"

It’s under Jurel, you can’t keep running from God

Well Hallelujah, my Lord kept angels at every turn

A tissue for every tear, an ointment for every burn

'Cause it’s fire and it’s pain on this winding road

And you be needin’ extra time and the kiss like prince

To metamorph you to a king from a slimy toad

Our poetry is deep heavenly, food for the sheeps

That’s why you can catch ‘em at my shows yelling preach

'Cause it’s synagogues of wolves and the streets selling meat

Stop for Allah, all we want is Salam Salam

But all these fuckers givin’ out is Haram Haram

I pray this fuckin’ album burn their kingdom to the ground

I pray this verse will lead a million kings into their crown

Nobody’s perfect, we’re all human beings

But that don’t stop us all from becoming kings and queens

Kind hearted gangsters, crooked cops and wicked screams

Beautiful hope turning into twisted dreams

Twisted dreams, twisted dreams

Not everything is as it looks or as it seems

Twi-twi-twi-twi-twisted dreams

Not everything is what it is or what it means

When the stars are aligned bintang tersusun rapi

Macam boss bergerak Capo Di Tutti Capi

Di jalanan harus berhati lagi kalau jalan kaki

Banyak kes langgar lari di angkasa memerhati, I'm fly

Gerak dengan gaya cara juga finesse

Pakai Coogi macam OG campak tangkap kunci G-Class

Semua tulis rap verse aku tulis thesis

Setiap block macam Tetris, the games missing piece, yes

Dari kecik ku dengan microphone tengok kena pakai mikroskop

Ku belajar yang dadah membawa padah

Jadi aku terpaksa jadi dope

Baru aku jadi Hope, ini dah tertulis

Words paint a thousand pictures lihat ku melukis, bliss

Tha-tha-tha-tha-that (dreams)

That don’t stop us (dreams)

That don’t stop us (dreams)

All from becom–, from becoming kings and queens (dreams)

Twisted dreams, twisted dreams

Not everythi-thing is what-what-what, what-what

What it i-is or what it means
