I knew what I wanted and how to make it happen
I put my people up on it, all of them gave me daps
They said “Do me a solid, you are a gentleman and a scholar
but can I borrow a dollar? I promise I’ll pay you back.”
Man…Promise you’ll pay me back
I knew what I wanted and how to make it happen
I put my people up on it, all of them gave me daps
They said “Do me a solid, you are a gentleman and a scholar
but can I borrow a dollar? I promise I’ll pay you back.”
I’m just a dreamer, can I borrow a dollar?
I’ll pay you back, pay you back
You know how many times I was in your position?
My songs were two minutes long, could you afford to listen?
If you can then of course you’d love the chorus in it
I pray your attention won’t stray before I finish
And I’m content with you checking my content
I hope I gain a fan when the song ends
Started game planning
with a strong sense of confidence to take action
I knew what I wanted and how to make it happen
I put my people up on it, all of them gave me daps
They said “Do me a solid, you are a gentleman and a scholar
but can I borrow a dollar? I promise I’ll pay you back.”
I’m just a dreamer, can I borrow a dollar?
I’ll pay you back, pay you back
When you get to the tip like this is it
You just take a leap of faith over a bottomless abyss
Off a cliff and if you fall in the pits
you will never hit the ground so why call it quits?
It’s all eyes on every act that you commit on the summit
Waiting for your slip to plummet from it
To see number one reduced to nothing
Listen to my two cents I always keep it a hundred
I knew what I wanted and how to make it happen
I put my people up on it, all of them gave me daps
They said “Do me a solid, you are a gentleman and a scholar
but can I borrow a dollar? I promise I’ll pay you back.”
I’m just a dreamer, can I borrow a dollar?
I’ll pay you back, pay you back
