[Verse 1]
I've been on a writing binge, I've been writing since
Five in the morning, and I woke up with all these lines in my head,
And I've been living in this fantasy world since I was a kid,
Grew up thinking it was normal until I was in
High school and realized no one cared as much as I did,
Black and white notebook with my earliest songs inside it.
Front to back filled with sixteens, at only sixteen,
With big dreams, released my first mixtape and it seemed
As if I was unstoppable, my popularity grew
And I was getting asked to sign autographs in high school,
Thinking I'm cool, yeah the whiteboy got an ego,
Feeling like I could do anything I set my mind to

My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, because I don't only dream at night.
My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, because I don't only - dream at night.
My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, because I don't only dream at night.
My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, and he was right..
[Verse 2]
Now I'm listening to my last mixtape, like this shit's straight,
I just seem fixated on talking about how I'm the greatest
Rapper in this day and age, which might be true, but let's face it,
Compared to Eminem and Jay Z, I'm just basic,
I'm basically saying all this shit when I've barely step foot in his game yet,
And maybe I'm getting ahead of myself,
And I could come across cocky as hell,
But I say confident shit that people can repeat
To feel good about themselves..

And he was right, because I don't only dream at night.
My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, because I don't only - dream at night.
My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, because I don't only dream at night.
My father always said "You're living in a dreamworld kid,"
And he was right, and he was right..
[Verse 3]
'Cause I write like it's an addiction, flipping through pages,
Finishing shit from years ago that I wrote while I was still in a
State of depression, I'm over it now, but the lyrics still reflect that
Feeling I had when nothing else mattered,
Except this pen and this pad, and this overactive imagination
With a little faith in the fact that anything can happen.
Like man, what if blow up from rapping,
And finally reach celebrity status..
