Aretha Franklin - Dreamin Lyrics

[Intro: Common & Pete Rock]
From the stellar regions of the soul
Say what? Uh huh
Dreamin', dreamin'

[Chorus: Aretha Franklin & Pete Rock]
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Woo)
D-d-daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you

[Verse 1: Common]
Baby, we could do it, take your time, do it right
I was hearin' melodies and rhythms through the night
This was a dream that felt real like a fight
What made it realer, J Dilla was there in the light
A movement was happenin', H. Brown was rappin' and
Kool G and Polo talkin' 'bout they back again
I seen Prince; he was time-travellin'
Through the Morris Days and Gladys Knights (Woo)
Sheila E. reminded me about the glamorous life
Ali was tellin' me why he had to fight
The struggle, he never left so we could have our rights
Biggie and Prodigy told me to grab the mic (Yeah)
I was shook; now ain't no such thing
'cause when I touch dreams, they become things
As the sun beam, I seen queens like Latifah
Chaka as I daydream with Aretha (Woo)
[Chorus: Aretha Franklin & Pete Rock]
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Dreamin', dreamin')
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Dreamin')
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Dreamin', dreamin')
D-d-daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh)

[Verse 2: Common]
It was all a dream; I was talkin' to Dr. King
He told me to dream in ways that the prophets dream
Like the one he had when nobody could wake him
Or Nelson Mandela when prison couldn't break him (Woo)
Malcolm was in the window, he said, "As-salamu alaykum"
Told Barack to rock the nation again, he got my nomination
The population in prison was labeled as forgiven
This was a god dream; hip-hop was our religion (Wow)
Stevie's vision of ribbons in the sky
It's the good life, we was livin' in the Chi' (Chi')
Seen Trugoy the Dove; he began to fly
Told him, Pos and Mase, "De La will never die" (Come on)
Me and Yasiin was holdin' rappers at bay
One-two check the niggas like back in the day (Back in the day)
That's when Dr. Angelou told me I should sing
A caged bird with brave words for higher things, I got wings
[Chorus: Aretha Franklin & Pete Rock]
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh)
D-aydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh, uh, uh, uh, dreamin')
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh, uh-huh. uh-huh, dreamin', dreamin')
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Yeah, dreamin')
D-d-daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh, uh, uh, uh, dreamin')

[Verse 3: Common]
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh)
I was sittin' by myself, that's what drinking'll do
I was nice, nice as I escape the mean world
I'm telling you, you the supreme dream girl (Mmm)
If I could interpret the way Joseph did dreams (World)
Then everyone would be as close as it seems (Yeah)
Whether I'm with a woman or a microphone (Uh)
Ajile told me to dream but write my own (Own, own)

[Chorus: Aretha Franklin & Pete Rock]
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, dreamin')
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Say what)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Say what, say what, dreamin')
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh, uh, I'm dreamin', I'm dreamin')
D-d-daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you (Uh, uh-huh, uh-huh, I'm dreamin', uh)
[Outro: Pete Rock & Aretha Frankin]
Twenty-four (Twenty-four), Auditorium (Auditorium)
Common Sense (Common Sense), Pete Rock (Pete Rock)
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you
D-d-daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you, you, you—
