[Intro] Yeah, word I got a story to tell Yeah, ayy, check it Ayo, ayo [Verse 1] My mom had once tried out for American Idol I was eight years old, back home, feeling entitled Went to school the next day, eyes gleaming with hope Plotting on the J’s I’d get when she finally blows Watching MTV Cribs, you know, the spin-off for kids I just knew when she won, that’s just how we would live Grandma babysitting us, paper plates in the kitchen I was heartbroken when she didn’t make the audition Next morning filled with gloom, back to regular life My dreams of being a rich kid would finally die Fu*k working hard, n!gga, boy, I’m tryna be fly Hand-me-downs from my cousin, these ain’t even my size Fu*k writing a verse with a sweet sixteen I’m tryna be on MTV for my sweet sixteen Red run, elder son got a Lambo for his They making fun of my Shaqs, I can’t handle this s*it Back to mom’s dream-chasing I used to cry when she’d leave for the studio when we lived in East Aiken Another demo that was shopped around and ain’t make it So then I started writing in that basement, it went like [Bridge] It went like It went like It went like Yeah [Verse 2] Ayo, my mom had once tried out for Making The Band She made it to the third episode, was taking a stand You know the season where Puff made ’em run six miles? Now look what happened to Puff, crazy how it work out It take me back to the days, I’m sitting up on the couch Still counting my blessings, Uncle John watching Westerns Headphones in, my pen game steadily progressing This lil’ hobby of mine had turned into an obsession Now, this is back in ’06, now I’m back in ’05 Mama had to choose between her dreams and keeping a job I said, \”Mama, maybe you should make a dancing song\” She said, \”Son, that type of music don’t last too long\” Dream deferred, meanwhile, my dreams is worse Explicit bars, but I swore I wrote the cleanest verse Fast-forward, I’m fifteen and got the biggest plans I’ll make it big since my mama didn’t get the chance N!gga, that’s real. 06 dreamin lyrics – Cordae : Get lyrics and music video of this song here on LyricsBull.com
