Sunset Tone - Living The Dream

We don't dream what we live, we just living the dream
We don't dream what we live, we just living the dream

They ask Tony how you doing, I said living the dream
Got my health, fly first class to switch the degrees
Water come out the sink and it's clean
Can't really complain, can't take it with you
We ain't as rich as we seem
But it start to make you wonder, when your wonder is stale
And every tool got a hammer acting tougher than nails
This curriculum ain't covered in Yale
You gotta eat with the sharks, before you start having lunch with the whales
I was waiting for the check and it was stuck in the mail
Now I take it all in, smile, puff and inhale
Sometimes the winners are losers, sometimes the suckers prevail
So when I leave a job, I always hope the company fails
Got the luck of the Irish and I'm drunk off the ale
And I covered my tracks but they still up on my trails
If my mom's ain't got enough for the bail
And I get locked up, at least I'll see my cousins in jail
Thats real

Is it a dream
We been living, we been living
What you do when you gotta make paper
Kill to make a mill, then people hate ya
American dream
Caught up in illusion
Gotta get mine, what's the reason for confusion

We turned tap into Perrier
Hard to give a fuck they giving up on you
When they never loved you anyway
Hustle every day, mornings like I'm Ed and Dre
Put the company on my shoulders just like the NBA
Hear about my life and say it sound chill
But if you're feeling like you coasting then you probably going downhill
Ain't no peace of mind, struggling but we survived
Tell me when you take a leap of faith, you get a deeper dive
They read your rights, way before you read or write
Kids was doing 3 to 5 for weed and now it's legalized
Hoop dreams, youth leagues you need the height
So it's stoops, feinds, booth, beats and deeper rhymes
I'll agree to give my keys up and let Jesus drive
But keep in mind it's just a DUI cause he be bleeding wine
Godspeed, guess we all need that demon time
Let the Phoenix rise, I keep it fly like Easter time

Is it a dream
We been living, we been living
What you do when you gotta make paper
Kill to make a mill, then people hate ya
American dream
Caught up in illusion
Gotta get mine, what's the reason for confusion

They never really love you till you dead or you gone
You get your flowers up in heaven with God
Never tell me the odds, just deal the cards
Know I'm betting the farm
My life will never be as hard as all these records I'm on
You ever contemplate closing the door revving the car
Just remember Amazon started in a garage
Thinking bout staring it down, tempted with ending it all
Just remember Google got it's start in the garage
Mom always told me dress like you meeting the mayor
But me as a player, dressed more like I was meeting Zendaya
Grew up needing the praise wanting to be entertainers
Speak your mind and finally find a way for people to pay ya
It's all trolls now, we beefing with robots
Always your own people mad you leave in the old block
We used to rock sneakers with no socks
I don't kneel down to pray cause I ain't creasing my toebox

We don't dream what we live, we just living the dream
