Just A Dream (DVs added vox mix)
So a buddy of mine (ConeyIslandRecords) did up this cool lil tune and he wanted someone to rap some more on it. So I did and this is what we came up with. Here's a spoon coz I know yer gonna dig this!
Deep from leftfield comes a solo act from the southeast that attempts to blend different genres of dance into one solid groove. He's wierd, he's different, he's

Story behind the song
So yeah, here's another Looperman Collab between myself and ConeyIsland. I think the sample he used pretty much sold me on this song. I was like- "Hells yeah!" I just hadta do sumfin, ya know. Anyways, I actually wrote the lyrics for this the first day I heard it (when I was reviewing the track). It just started formin in my head and BAM... I came up with a sorta story that's one part Dante's Inferno, one part Alice in Wonderland, and one part MC battle (the loser's side). Basically, a true nightmare, right? Haha.
Anyways, I know that my vocals still need alotta work before I can consider myself to be worthy (atleast in my own mind, I always think I can do better, no matter what I do). Well all I'm headin outta here now. I hope yall enjoy this joint effort. Later on!
PS. the pic is Coney's Avatar on Looperman

PPS. I almost forgot, but this is kind of a
rough draft version. It could def be tweaked
a little to sound better.
PPPS. Am stopping downloads because I discovered that the site alters the ID3 tags. Sorry bout that. Adios!
Lyrics
Just A Dream (verses 2-4)
By Donald Claus.
I rose from the grave
Head hung in shame
I was buried alive
and upstaged
But I won't rage
Letting the anger pass away
Pass today and fade
sliding into the gray
This cloudy turmoil won't
foil my plans to post
verse for verse
and line by line
while I hike away
Miles and miles from the hurst
Stuck in the desert of my mind
unable to find ways to quench my thirst (2x)
or worse... sound like I'm rehearsed
I suppose, yours, is a finer specimin
but I'll grow stronger, longer, faster
go past and surpass you- becoming the master
through exercise, study, and lotsa vitamins
Or Spinach, I'll be strong to the finish
Never diminish while I push a mush on ya pisser
Gabbin on and on spoutin like a garbage dispenser
Nasty foul smellin yo mouth needs a good rinsing
Cleansing out all of the profanities
While you profess to be
Better than me, indeed
but are you betta than god (I think not)
couldn't he see through yo hard facade
down to the rickety-kneed shaky Ichabod
Crane in this eternal Sleepy Hollow
(where weary souls wallow)
with a sun that never rises marking tomorrow
And a trail leading back into pitch black
Must I ask, where does it lead and will you follow
If I go down it, hmm, I highly doubt it,
but ahead I step, wondering how many more I have left
Right, I'll descend or climb it
and look up ahead
on the horizon
I see a needle of light piercing through
What's on the other side- I have no clue
But pressing forward appears to be the thing to do.
It only seems fitting
And as I near it I open my eyes
Man this was just a dream?
So that means that you...
Holy sh** , dude!
