Tekst piosenki
Chorus1:
Dream a dream for me, a dream for you, a dream for two of us.
Shema Yisrael, That’s my Daddy ya know, that’s my Daddy you know.
Verse 1:
I’m ahead of my time, out my head comes this rhyme
I got tossed in a well, well there’s slime to my grind
I was snitching (’he was snitching’) all up in my brothers’ face
Poppin’ Poppa’s collar, now I got the collar of a slave
Don’t worry Rueven, it’s not a dream its a plan,
Sold to Potiphar, the officer, his wife thinks I am the man
That lady crazy – she won’t take 'No’ for an answer
Tore my threads, I fled she said that I was trying to romance her,
Got that drama, (’Where’d you get that face from?’), I get it from my Mamma
Jaws drop stop and pause my face is a comma
Whats my sentence? Toss me into a cell
I tell my cellmates bout their dreams they hope I’m their wishing well.
Well, one you gonna die and one you gonna live
And I ain’t tell no lie, I’ll told em’ which one it is
Holler back though, cause you know what it is
I’ve been here for some years – turned this jail to my crib (shout out to Pharaoh)
Chorus 1
Chorus 2: If you a Gd-hearing man but not a Gd fearing man
You can tell me all your dreams and I will try to understand
Shout out to Phoarah, thats my partner you know
He bring me down to his town and said ‘Let my people grow’
Verse 2:
7 years to live on what 7 years can give
You’ll have to lick the lid up and you’ll eat your baby’s spit up
Let that sink in…
Pharoah’s straight up trippin’
He takes a second announces his decision so its written
'Go find some one with a vision, ask him what he is thinking’
I’m glad you asked as a matter a fact I was thinking here’s the mission
We need to work together for better weather than ever
Let’s get clever we can weather the weather with effort
7 years will come, as seven just past
And though it will be tough I think we got enough to last
Here come my brothers, some is from another mother
Some are just some bustas I’m a play them out – suckas…
Why you stealing? I caught you red handed
You never abandoned or stranded Benjamin
Now just look at us, we’re the opposites of Exodus
Tell Jacob to leave Israel and to come live with us!
CHORUS:
If you a Gd hearing man but not a Gd fearing man
You can tell me all your dreams and I will try to understand
Shema yisrael, that’s my daddy y’know
I’ll bring him down to a town Pharoah ‘let my people grow’
