[Intro: Joyce Wrice]
My reality is my fantasy
I know I'm so gone, I know I'm so gone
Is my fantasy
When there's nothing wrong
My problems are gone

[Verse 1: Aminé]
Ahem, can I feel myself?
Used to need a handout, now I need no help
Niggas that I used to look up to is gettin' shook up too
And nigga, you don't know how weird that felt
Look, I went from skippin' class to making a classic
I'm steppin' over niggas and I'm skippin' the practice
AI, when it come to the checks, I'm like, "Taxes? Taxes? Taxes?"
I always did what the fuck I wanted
And now, girls scream like my shows all haunted
Livin' out the words that I used to say
We all dream, but to live this way

[Chorus: Joyce Wrice & Aminé]
Is my fantasy (And my fantasies lookin' like it's reality)
When there's nothing wrong (God gave me the audacity)
My problems are gone (That's why these niggas probably mad at me)
Is my fantasy (And my fantasies lookin' like it's reality)
When there's nothin' wrong (God gave me the audacity)
My problems are gone (Now I smile 'cause it's reality)

[Verse 2: Aminé]
Fantasies, boy, I just can't believe
And we all got dreams, hopin' for reality
You know I can't make it (Hey), you know I can't lie to ya
You know I can't fake it, you know I can't lie to ya
Yeah, so as I skrrt in my brand new Range
The grapefruit fills a void I can't explain
They be like, "Woah, what's that, my nigga?"
I be like, "That's a banana link chain"
As I sit here and stare at my things
The glass half-full from the joy that they bring
Livin' out the words that I used to say
We all dream, but to live this way

[Chorus: Joyce Wrice & Aminé]
Is my fantasy (And my fantasies lookin' like it's reality)
When there's nothing wrong (God gave me the audacity)
My problems are gone (That's why these niggas probably mad at me)
Is my fantasy (And my fantasies lookin' like it's reality)
When there's nothin' wrong (God gave me the audacity)
My problems are gone (Now I smile 'cause it's reality)

[Outro: Daniel Caesar]
Who would've thought we'd live where the Sun sets?
Livin' a dream that still isn't done yet
I'm livin' out my fantasies
Don't know if the glow could handle me
I'm with my dawgs, we stay gettin' money
I gotta say, this shit isn't funny
We livin' out our fantasies
Don't know if the glow could handle we
Who would've thought we'd live where the Sun sets?
Livin' a dream that still isn't done yet
I'm livin' out my fantasies
Don't know if the glow could handle me
I'm with my dawgs, we stay gettin' money
I gotta say, this shit isn't funny
We livin' out our fantasies
Don't know if the glow could handle we
