Daydreamin' (a cappella) Songtext
von Lupe Fiasco feat. Jill Scott

Daydream (daydream)
I fell asleep beneath the flowers (I fell asleep beneath the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
On a beautiful day (on a beautiful day)

Daydream (daydream)
I dream of you amid the flowers (I dream of you amid the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
Such a beautiful day (such a beautiful day)

As I spy from behind my Giant Robot′s eyes
I keep him happy, 'cause I might fall out if he cries
Scared of heights so I might pass out if he flies
Keep him on autopilot, ′cause I can't drive

Room enough for one, I tell my homies they can't ride
Unless they sittin′ on the shoulders but that′s way too high
Let's try not to step on the children
The news camera′s filmin', this walkin′, project buildin'


Now there′s hoes sellin' hoes like right around the toes
And the crackheads beg at about the lower leg
There's crooked police that′s stationed at the knees
And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs

And there′s a car chase goin' on at the waist
Keep a vest on my chest
I′m sittin' in my room as I′m lookin' out the face
Somethin′ to write about
I still got some damage from fightin' the White House, just a

Daydream (daydream)
I fell asleep beneath the flowers (I fell asleep beneath the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
On a beautiful day (on a beautiful day)

Daydream (daydream)
I dream of you amid the flowers (I dream of you amid the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
Such a beautiful day (such a beautiful day)

Now come on everybody, let's make cocaine cool
We need a few more half-naked women up in the pool
And hold this MAC-10 that′s all covered in jewels
And can you please put your titties closer to the 22s?


And where′s the champagne? We need champagne
Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
And now hold up your chain, slow motion through the flames
Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain

But not too loud, 'cause the baby′s sleepin'
I wonder if it knows what the world is keepin′
Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin'
Me and my robot, tip-toe ′round creepin'

I had to turn my back on what got you paid
I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Gharib
But I′d like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
And all the televisions out there that raised me, I was

Daydream (daydream)
I fell asleep beneath the flowers (I fell asleep beneath the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
On a beautiful day (on a beautiful day)

Daydream (daydream)
I dream of you amid the flowers (I feel asleep beneath the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
Such a beautiful day (such a beautiful day)

Daydream (daydream)
I fell asleep beneath the flowers (fell asleep beneath the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
On a beautiful day (such a beautiful day)

Daydream (daydream)
I dream of you amid the flowers (fell asleep beneath the flowers)
For a couple of hours (for a couple of hours)
Such a beautiful day (such a beautiful day)
