lyrics

VERSE 1:
Yo a little Jim Beam, now let's get it crackin!
i'm in a scene in my den relaxin',
tryna dream but this pen is graftin,
had a long day i'm tryna forget about,
i can't imagine with all this stress about,
but i got a measured dose of what ya toast,
and what ya call a "Night-Cap",
knock the sedative back then Vamonos! Let's GO!
try to open your eyes and find closure,
from life's 9 to 5's and close the blinds over,
Cos Night Sky's glow don't end as far as i know,
so ima let the medicine flow until my mind slow,
and let the coil slowly unwind from all the time,
spent on the Grind, while ya fantasies playin' on ya mind!
and i'm back! tryna shake off reality in a flash of the pan,
If the Beam's toasted? homie...i'll be 'Jacked' on the Dan!
and the dreams comin fast now i'm laxed in the sand,
driftin off to the shores of another land.

HOOK: So slide Back! slip into these Jim Beam Dreams,
And Riiiide That- Coat-tail to a midsummer scene,
Just like That! turn reality to somethin serene,
then right back! in the room when the mornings keen

VERSE 2:
Yo i'm dreamin about-playin venues that's packed to shit,
recordin LP's that's makin platinum lists,
and makin ya iPod's 'Most Played' a no brainer,
then Click! - i'm runnin through forests that's rife with danger,
then i'm - fallin off cliffs and wakin before i land,
roamin 'Land-before-time' had ever embraced man,
and as i stand, i'm fightin this crime of imagination
...but all the while lyin' in Horizontal equations,
cos, the Beam hit me and i soak it up,
ya deemed tipsy, then ya liable to throw some up,
but i be flyin through sky's as a pilot of planes,
and then i'm droppin the lines to be lyin' with dames,
it's gettin Heavy now! i'm sinkin deeper into waters,
goin down with the ship when the crew is relieved of orders,
steady toastin the 5th, while the dreams leavin these borders,
slippin into wonderlands that Alice'd never have thought of!

VERSE 3:
So when the toxins-in, i'm dedicatin rhymes to Jack, Jim, and lotsa Gin!
whethere tossin back the Henn', or i'm 'Off the tin',
Couple cans on the train driftin off again?
probly missin where i'm gettin off...then hop back in!
and while i'm dozin i'll be slippin so much closer to R.E.M,
and the fantasies tickin over,
and the part i been playin could change any moment,
like "that's scene" and that Maxine is a Mona?
and i ain't in Dubai tryna Emirate-act-fly,
i'm just gettin by up in Conneticut?
in fact I - might be drivin by on the strip in a new whip?
or 'laxed lyin kickin it with chicks that are toooo thick!
so catch me in Miami tryna roll to clubs,
or on Safari in Zimbabwe yellin - "Show Me Some.LUV!"
with a Tecate in Tiahuana? or rollin back up..
to party in the OC - but that's reality Cuhhz!

So sliiiide back!
