    Yeah, hey, Cole world

    Hey, I gotta dollar and a dream, that's all a nigga got
    So if it's bout that cream, then I'm all up in the spot
    I got a dollar and a dream, just a dollar and a dream

    Cole, walk with a nigga, I give you my pain
    So much on my mind, I wonder how it fit in my brain
    Scattered thoughts, dark secrets lead me to a blacker heart
    Life can't get any worse, Stevie with his glasses off
    Cause I still don't see hope, lookin' for a quick fix
    When everyone I see is broke, get lost in weed smoke
    Knowin' it make it worse, thoughts roam uncontrollably
    Barely trustin' niggas, over a decade they been knowin' me
    Shit, life at the bottom, nobody but God got em'
    They say he wouldn't leave me, yet I'm fallin' like it's Autumn
    Tell me, what do you do just when you're on your last dollar
    And the stress of this mess you in can make your ass holla?
    Do you fold, grow bitter and grow cold?
    No longer fightin' now the only thing you grow is old
    Or do you flip that fuckin' dollar to a dream?
    Whether a scholar or a fiend, watch a pawn become a king
    Cole!

    Young nigga with his jeans low
    Nice guy, just got a mean flow
    Never seen rich but he's seen poor
    Mr. Dollar and a dream in case yeen know

    That's all a nigga got so if it's bout that cream
    Then I'm all up in the spot
    I got a dollar and a dream, just a dollar and a dream

    Yeah, armed and ready, you niggas strung out, you spaghetti
    Ya paper, confetti, small time, ya'll on one, I'm on mine
    You logged off cause I'm online, small talk from small minds
    I wanna buy the mall but there ain't shit in this small town
    This where I get my dough
    My niggas make sure the money right and then I rip the show
    I run the town they tried to call me underground
    I spun around like, you wish
    Homie my backpack Louis, now watch just how I do this
    I got the nerds rappin' hard shit, dummies rappin' smart shit
    Mozart meets Humphrey Bogart with this from the heart shit
    Play your part, life is but a dream for me
    I get a flash of nightmares when niggas scheme on me
    It's hard to see my enemies, who infiltrated my team
    I take a step back and notice that things ain't what they seem
    That's when a nigga refocus, yeah I turn on them high beams
    I got that red dot waitin', I'm wastin' your whole regime
    I wish a nigga would, boy you can't out-smart me
    I let you feel like you the shit, but boy you can't out-fart me
    Ya never have it, I know you want what I got
    But nigga you ain't me, but you are what I'm not
    And that's a phony ass, lonely ass, Cole is what you know me as
    But we far from homies, if you know my mama, you know me
    If ya don't then well I'm sorry, you should get to know Kay
    Man she been workin' too hard, I should send her a bouquet
    My goal this year is a real one, gonna stack a million
    And as soon as I do, Mama that 9 to 5 is through
    And I know I ain't been callin', but I'm thinkin' bout you
    And all the shit that you been through
    My girl and then my brother too
    Cause this life gets hard on this road, yeah it's true
    I don't never tell you how much I be stressin', but I do
    But I suck it up for who? My fans, and my mans
    Who probably never ever had this type of lifestyle in they plans
    Hoppin' in and out of vans, on the buses, on the planes
    Gettin' brain from a bitch and thinkin' "God damn, what's her name?"
    Sometimes I just shake my head and tell myself this is a shame
    And then my other side kick in like, "bitch, don't be so fuckin' lame"
    Dang, what a life, another day, another night
    At times this shit is all blurry, pray and hope that God heard me
    Just for those prayin' for me, man I know that y'all worry
    But I ain't never failed and you can bet I never will
    Cole!

    Young nigga with his jeans low
    Nice guy, just got a mean flow
    Never seen rich but he's seen poor
    Mr. Dollar and a dream in case yeen know

    That's all a nigga got so if it's bout that cream
    Then I'm all up in the spot
    I got a dollar and a dream, just a dollar and a dream

    Hey, cause nigga that's life, and trust me I'm livin'
    Look what a nigga done made out the shit that I was given
    Look what a nigga made out, look what a nigga made out
    Got a dollar and a dream, three
