'The American Dream (C.R.E.A.M.)' re-make
 
heres a piece i wrote awhile ago

(Chorus X2)
LISTEN,
I took my Niggas Over Power,
Im Still On the Ground When i coulda Been Higher Then a Tower,
Is It Me or is there notin To CREAM,
But in life it will Always be the American Dream,

Me

Life use to be easy on the block, just flowin and rhymin, keepin it on the grind,
Jokin from time to time, what would happen if one of us got signed,
It always been in the back of my mind, but I look back and find,
A quiet storm inside of me like lashin out at a mime,
Well what do you know.. days later I got a call from a label,
All nauseous and crazy, fallin over half of the coffee table,
Why me? Both sides can't understand my situation,
Initiation to a future ahead or forgettin the past that I was raised in, then again,
I had the nicest writtens, now im thinking of being considerate, gettin images,
Id rather be in the studio sittin, not spittin for illiterate citizens,
It's menacing, and the medicine doesn't help the headaches,
Until the bed breaks, im stuck in between a rock and a hard place,
So I let my heart race, heartbreaks, and the pen make my decisions,
But I invision my crew with deep incisions if I sign it and ditch em,
Odds of this is like findin a diamond on Christmas, you feel me,
Should I live an easy life with no thuds, so my minds a whole lot lighter,
Or take the joe budden stance, cause im my sole prodiver,
Brain stems a cadaver, now its a battle of thoughts, like,
Matter of fact my crew'll get slaughtered at an adamant cost,
Cause we had a pact, that can never be broken atleast im hopin,
Im either blind, or blurry as fuck cause both of my eyes are open,
Fuck it, I gathered em both by my phone an told em,
Question my saneness and ya money is answered,
But my crew is all I got and I take nothing for granted,


(Chorus X2)
LISTEN,
I took my Niggas Over Power,
Im Still On the Ground When i coulda Been Higher Then a Tower,
Is It Me or is there notin To CREAM,
But in life it will Always be the American Dream,

Me

money is a powerful thing, a tower of sin...
that makes a woman do the most absurd, preposterous things....
the power it brings, to those which are it's beholder...
makes them disregard the angel that pop's onto their shoulder...
it takes the heat from a warm heart and makes it into ice...
and makes a person disregard the greatest things in life...
it's a shame that a person with a gun, could make ya whole world twist...
and how a car accident could bring numerous blades to my wrists....
but it also brought words to my lips, cause I spit to ease pain produced by the shit...
I'm loosing my grip, engulfed in the blasphemy...
only 19 years of age, afraid that people tryna blast at me...
robbing me, for the money they need to survive, cause they can't get job...
unworthy in society's eyes, so they did time...
doesn't make them less of a person, the reality of it all probably hurts them...
have to feed their family, so their out pushing rocks or robbing a person....
they don't want to but it has to be done, to put food on the table for a hungry daughter or son....
so when I open my wallet and it's empty, I just wanna scream...
cause I know, CREAM get the money's the American dream....




(Chorus X4: Gradually fades out)
LISTEN,
I took my Niggas Over Power,
Im Still On the Ground When i coulda Been Higher Then a Tower,
Is It Me or is there notin To CREAM,
But in life it will Always be the American Dream,



Me
"I GOT 3 SHOTS AT DEALS ALREADY BUT PEOPLE DONT LOOK AT THE OUTHA SIDE OF MONEY,
THE DARK SIDE OF MONEY CAN MAKE U LOSE PEOPLE MONEY MADE ME LOSE MY BROTHER,
AND ILL NEVER ACCEPT ANYTHING AFTER THAT..............
IM ONLY BEING REAL THATS THE ONLY WAY I CAN PUT IT.................."
