Song lyrics

[Refrain:]
Some people really,
Some people really,
Some people really are still dreaming,
They are still dreaming.

[Intro: Kanye West]
And as the sun sets,
And the night falls,
And them hoes call...

[Verse 1: Kanye West]
He pulled up at 6:30 in a 745,
As he wavin', "Shorty, hi!" You know he showin' his bling out,
She got in the car, he drove, he pulled his thing out.
His girl caught feelings, she mad, she threw the ring out.
How she found out? She dreamt the whole thing out.
Y'all be goin' through problems, you gotta work the kinks out,
When you go to sleep? What do you think 'bout?
If y'all get a divorce,
She gon' take everything except the kitchen sink out,
Make it so cold that you gotta pull your mink out
Or grab your roller skates and turn a roller rink out.
You now back up in the club, in the club tryna mingle,
Meanwhile, she out doin' the same thing now,
Nightmares from your dream gal make you scream out.

[Hook: Kanye West]
Wha-wha-wha-what? One-two, one-two,
Some dreams stay dreams, some dreams come true.
Wha-wha-wha-what? One-two, one-two,
Some dreams stay dreams, some dreams come true.

[Verse 2: Nas]
How you a man waitin' for the next man to get rich?
Your plan is to stick out your hand real quick,
So if he feed your family and he serve you shit,
Then he need that head you get and he deserve your bitch.
Since you wishin' cash fall from the sky all your life,
Dwellin' on the past when you was alright,
When you was gettin' cash but wasn't too bright.
Now your luck down, you feel like bustin' them shells,
Nobody owe you, can't do nothing for self,
Want niggas to show you how to come up with green,
I schemed since I'm 14, what the fuck was your dream?
Rental cars, little broads, sayin' you was seen
With little niggas with a chain, you was doin' your thing.
How high was I? You the thousandth guy
That came around thinkin' we can see eye to eye,
We on a different echelon,
Could've got bread together, now you get skedded on.
So keep dreamin'!

[Hook: Kanye West]
Wha-wha-wha-what? One-two, one-two,
Some dreams stay dreams, some dreams come true.
Wha-wha-wha-what? One-two, one-two,
Some dreams stay dreams, some dreams come true.

[Verse 3: Nas]
She had several cars, she had credit cards,
A castle, large master bathroom, getting' a pedicure,
Bellinis by the glassful, said she been meanin' to ask who,
Who in need of cash who, who could blast tools.
And I'm eatin' cashews, knew she was bad news,
But we mad cool, nothing sexual
‘Cause I knew her since high school,
Grew up with my dudes, like one of my crew,
She worked for Fox News.
One of her mans that she lent her drop to
Won't come back with it, so she want him clapped in it,
Says it's important that it looks like an accident,
She was snortin' and her eyes had bags in it,
She was recordin', had a wire, askin' shit,
Four days before I came by she got bagged with bricks,
Crossed the line from her world of news castin',
To a world of entrapment, a good girl gone backwards.
Still dreamin'.

[Hook: Kanye West]
Wha-wha-wha-what? One-two, one-two,
Some dreams stay dreams, some dreams come true.
Wha-wha-wha-what? One-two, one-two,
Some dreams stay dreams, some dreams come true.
