"Bad Dreams" lyrics

I wish that I was a simple man
Wish that I was but I've never been
Scared of reality setting in
Wish I was better at giving in
I wish that I was a kid again
Back when I wished I was Eminem
Scared of reality setting in
Taking the time I won't get again
Wish I didn't need a wish
Too concerned with getting rich
Shoulders heavy from the chips
Can you blame me trying to flex
Need to make time for my mom
Be half of the man that my dad is
Learn to accept when I'm wrong
There's some things in life that you can't miss
I've been having some bad dreams
I've been having some bad dreams
I've been having some bad dreams

Yeah, I got a lot on my plate ay
I got to whip into shape
Wait, don't cut the tape
Too much to say
I've got a song
I make a living off writing my wrongs
Virginia to death but my dream in the West got to puff up my chess you can't make pawn
Just got a text said that new shit is fresh man I wish you the best you deserve to be on
Ain't got a deal with Atlantic but they going frantic about it there over the pond
I can't set limits inside of my mind
That shit would feel like committing a crime
Baby that apple pie keeping me calm
You fall asleep and you dream of the shine
I look for peace but there's not much to find
Scared of the storm but I'm stuck in the calm

I wish that I was a simple man
Wish that I was but I've never been
Scared of reality setting in
Wish I was better at giving in
I wish that I was a kid again
Back when I wished I was Eminem
Scared of reality setting in
Taking the time I won't get again
Wish I didn't need a wish
Too concerned with getting rich
Shoulders heavy from the chips
Can you blame me trying to flex
Need to make time for my mom
Be half of the man that my dad is
Learn to accept when I'm wrong
There's some things in life that you can't miss
I've been having some bad dreams
I've been having some bad dreams
I've been having some bad dreams

I got to drunk on a Sunday
The hangover Monday it kind of defeated the purpose
Boy, I'd rather talk about shit in the music than coffee and toffee with someone in person
I'm trying to give more to myself in the world
There's too many ways I could word it
'Cause they like their lyrics in lower case letters in measures
Presented in beautiful cursive
Like jeez
All that we knew was just smoking some weed
Roll up the truck in the bushes and leaves
Droc taught me how to roll up the trees
Back when the first I would spit it for free
Just me and Onzy inside of the Jeep
Back when I knocked down a shorty a week
Break off a piece
Cop me some sneaks
Lay down some heat
Life on repeat

I wish that I was a simple man
Wish that I was but I've never been
Scared of reality setting in
Wish I was better at giving in
I wish that I was a kid again
Back when I wished I was Eminem
Scared of reality setting in
Taking the time I won't get again
Wish I didn't need a wish
Too concerned with getting rich
Shoulders heavy from the chips
Can you blame me trying to flex
Need to make time for my mom
Be half of the man that my dad is
Learn to accept when I'm wrong
There's some things in life that you can't miss
I've been having some bad dreams
I've been having some bad dreams
I've been having some bad dreams
