Daydreamin'


[Chorus - Prodigy]
Daydreamin' of dirt bikes, and four wheelers
Shoppin' sprees at the diamond dealer
Hats and jackets, shirts, pants and sneakers
That brand new car smell
We sceamin' daydreamin' of penthouses in L.A.
The illest yachts, the hottest broads they make
Can't wait 'til it's my turn to get dough
So I don't gotta fuckin' day dream no more

[Verse 1 - Prodigy]
Coming up we ain't have much, a lot of canned food
cereal in the white box, with powdered milk too
my moms couldn't buy me the shoes I want
we put lay-away on shit that only cost a few bucks
its cool to have shelto, I had the libeaz
with the weak ass velcro, looking ridiculous
I knew way back then we had to step it up
Cause waiting for the bus in the snow wasn't us
Me and hav' took the train from Manhattan to Coney
Everyday and night, just so we can got songs done
We had guns, weed, and a couple of fourties
If we got lucky on the way, we could jook someone
We used to watch video music box
and pray maybe one day we could get a shot
Outside, my niggaz had all that shit you see on T.V.
From money that they made off the block

[Chorus - Prodigy]
Daydreamin' of dirt bikes, and four wheelers
Shoppin' sprees at the diamond dealer
Hats and jackets, shirts, pants and sneakers
That brand new car smell
We sceamin' daydreamin' of penthouses in L.A.
The illest yachts, the hottest broads they make
Can't wait 'til it's my turn to get dough
So I don't gotta fuckin' day dream no more

[Verse 2 - Havoc]
My day dreams, is more like nightmares
A vigi, bullet proof cars, supped up time shares
My friends did a turn cause it's not they turn
Or how the streets gonna be, when they release fur
When I get that million bucks, will I remain the same
Or will I have to get at niggaz cause they sayin' I changed
Will everybody wanna ball, be my friend and leech
When niggaz put me to the test, have me clapping the heat
I used to think bein' rich, ain't all that bad
A far cry from what a dream, was all I had
Do I got the right team, or they riding for cash
Would they jump in front of me, when them cameras flash
Is the 'pop police, gon' be up my ass
Can't leave the heat under the seat, gotta find a better stash
Gotta collect receipts cause that bitch uncle sam
Invades your space when you evade his tax

[Chorus - Prodigy]
Daydreamin' of dirt bikes, and four wheelers
Shoppin' sprees at the diamond dealer
Hats and jackets, shirts, pants and sneakers
That brand new car smell
We sceamin' daydreamin' of penthouses in L.A.
The illest yachts, the hottest broads they make
Can't wait 'til it's my turn to get dough
So I don't gotta fuckin' day dream no more

Biografia

Mobb Deep was an American hip hop duo formed by rappers Havoc (Jason Irvine) and Prodigy (Albert Johnson). Active from 1990 until Prodigy's death in 2017, they are considered pillars of the Golden Era of East Coast hip hop. Their musical style is characterized by raw, realistic lyrics about life in the streets of Queensbridge, New York, and dark, atmospheric productions. Their debut album *Juvenile Hell* (1993) introduced the world to their distinctive sound. However, it was their second album, *The Infamous* (1995), that cemented them as icons of the genre. With tracks like «Shook Ones (Part II)» and «Survival of the Fittest», Mobb Deep defined the sonic aesthetic of East Coast hip hop in the 1990s. After *The Infamous*, the duo continued to release successful albums, including *Hell on Earth* (1996) and *Murda Muzik* (2000). Prodigy also pursued a solo career, releasing several albums. Prodigy's untimely death in 2017 marked the end of Mobb Deep, leaving a void in the hip hop landscape.
