Dream Lyrics


I like the talky talky happy talk
(I'm not gonna pull this off man without signing the dots)
Talk about things you like to do
You got to have a dream
(This is too sensible for me man)
If you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true ?I used to dream about crazy little things like fame
In the days hanging outside the off license
We used to run around the streets reckless with no shame
Mainly up to no good the whole world would ask us
And when the girls would walk by we would try to catch their eye
And if they didn't show face we would act immature
Had a thing for south and hackney girls since I was a kid
A couple of west girls on my radar I was rawAnd I was dead sure that I knew it all
The whole world got my attitude I nearly blew it all
I find it a real big struggle gettin' through at all
I swear I didn't wanna listen 'cause I'm sure didn't care
Not knowing for reality that I'd have to prepare

'Cos money don't grow on no stick, well it's rare
Me and boy was still looking less and less the lick
Plus I was growing up, life was looking as a scareI like the talky talky happy talk
Talk about things you like to do
(Talk about things you like to do)
You got to have a dream if you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?I used to love music it was like my hidden hobbie
But I couldn't get on on local radio back then so I went
To North London and trot to Tottenham to be precise
And got some air time on heat Fm and then it escalated
I was getting ratings here and there and carried on until
Eventually I was everywhere, I started doing all the hot spots
Ministry Ceasers Palace P area taminin' V, I did the grimAnd the glam I done the poor and the posh, I didn't hang
Around I wanted my money in a rush mind frame in the
Studio at this stage no time to chat I didn't wanna n-gage
I found myself a new hustle it was beautiful a none like
The one before a bit more suitable, the more challenging it got
The more I thought it made an album over 100,000 people bought it
Thank youI like the talky talky happy talk
Talk about things you like to do
(Talk about things you like to do)
You got to have a dream if you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?To all the youngers cotchin' on the stairs in the flats
With the superstar sockalings Beckham in the making
You can go far if you put your mind to it
Your a star, don't wait to be told, just do it
Try to keep school in your plans don't be worrying about your mans
They'll be there in the end if they're real, if they ain't
Don't be making no effort to impress
'Cause you'll find out where you are just do what you feelYoung baby mother I got your back as well
Young baby fathers hold it down for your girl
I ain't trying to preach but for what it's worth
Back is the next generation planet earth
Big shout to the world 'cause I've been all around
And when I'm gone I'm always thinking about my home town
I'm from the LDN there's no forgetting that
And the big UK, I stay reppin' thatI like the talky talky happy talk
Talk about things you like to do
(Talk about things you like to do)
You got to have a dream if you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?You love that
You tell me you don't love that

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Dylan Mills, known professionally as Dizzee Rascal (born November 1, 1985), is a grime solo artist, formerly a Roll Deep crew member, who emerged from the UK Garage music scene. His music was a blend of garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga, with some more eclectic samples.

Dizzee began MCing on pirate radio and at raves at fifteen, but since his mainstream success he has distanced himself from the fledgling scene. Rascal grew up in the East End of London in south Bow in a council estate, raised by his single mother, a Ghanaian immigrant. Little is known about his father, though it is thought that he died when Mills was two. He attributes his musical development to a school teacher who allowed him to skip regular classes and spend time working on music on the school computers.

His music is an eclectic mixture of garage and hip-hop beats with an extremely broad palette of influences, ranging from metal guitars to found sounds, drill and bass synth lines, eclectic samples and even Japanese court music. His vocal performance is also distinctive, he uses a fast version of rapping (known as 'spitting') which blends elements from garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga.

Dizzee Rascal has numerous rivals within the Grime scene, mainly from the Bow, East London area. A notable rival of Dizzee Rascal is Crazy Titch who produced and recorded a diss called "Just An Arsehole" which used the backing track of Dizzee's record of "Jus A Rascal".

Dizzee Rascal has had international endorsements deals with urban brand Ecko and designed his own shoe with Nike. He has also worked with cross genre artist, Beck, on a remix of the song Hell Yes.

He released his first album in 2003, which was called Boy in da Corner. His second album Showtime was then later released in 2004. His third effort, Maths and English was released in 2007. He experienced commercial success in 2008 when Dance Wiv Me reached the number one spot in the UK charts.
