Pandemic Rap Lyrics: 1.1

Firstly, I didn't pen the post, but here is just one personal musing why The Game achieved "overrated" status on the G-List. What follows is the chorus from Dreams:

"Russian and this 40 ounce, lettin the ink from my pen bleed
Cause Martin Luther King had a (dream)
Aaliyah had a (dream), Left Eye had a (dream)
So I reached out to Kanye and (I brought you all my dreams)
(Cause I love you, I love you, I love you)(I love you)"

...Now, if Martin Luther King, Aaliyah, and Left Eye were somehow grouped together in a SAT/GRE type question, I wouldn't choose "dreams" as the unifying concept. "Tragic" death is a possibility, but I don't see "dreams."* But maybe, its just me.


The Game probably should have had Hov ghostwrite some lyrics for him, say maybe:

"I'm pulp fiction, colt 4-5th and, young homies that blast-for-me (blasphemy), no religion." - Hov

You've seen it before folks, and you will see it again, but if you drop a double entendre that works so well and fits so perfectly like that, it's well deserved. Sick...flu...and as it was said...Pandemic.


*Why is "see" italicized in "I don't see dreams?"...because the phrase has a personal application in another sense altogether (though I'm trying to change that - I'm trying to see). So, for future reference, there are hidden messages everywhere.
