Lyrics[]
(Juicy by The Notorious B.I.G.)
Yeah, this album is dedicated
To all the teachers that told me I'd never amount to nothin'
To all the people that lived above the buildings that I was hustlin' in front of
That called the police on me when I was just tryin' to make some money to feed my daughter
And all the people in the struggle
You know what I'm sayin'? It's all good, baby baby, uh
It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up! magazine
Salt-n-Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
Hangin' pictures on my wall
Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped
Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack
With the hat to match
Remember Rappin' Duke? Duh-ha, duh-ha
You never thought that hip-hop would take it this far
Now I'm in the limelight 'cause I rhyme tight
Time to get paid
Born sinner, the opposite of a winner
Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
Peace to Ron G, Brucie B, Kid Capri
Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starski
I'm blowin' up like you thought I would
Call the crib, same number, same hood
It's all good
And if you don't know, now you know
You know very well
Who you are
Don't let 'em hold you down
Reach for the stars
You had a goal
But not that many
'Cause you're the only one
I'll give you good and plenty
I made the change from a common thief
To up close and personal with Robin Leach
And I'm far from cheap
With my peeps all day
Spread love, it's the Brooklyn way
Keep me pissy
Girls used to diss me
Now they write letters 'cause they miss me
I never thought it could happen, this rappin' stuff
I was too used to packin' gats and stuff
Now honeys play me close like butter play toast
From the Mississippi down to the East Coast
Condos in Queens, indo for weeks
Sold-out seats to hear Biggie Smalls speak
Livin' life without fear
Puttin' five karats in my baby girl's ear
Lunches, brunches, interviews by the pool
Considered a fool 'cause I dropped out of high school
Stereotypes of a black male misunderstood
And it's still all good, uh
And if you don't know, now you know
You know very well
Who you are
Don't let 'em hold you down
Reach for the stars
You had a goal
But not that many
'Cause you're the only one
I'll give you good and plenty
Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis
When I was dead broke, man, I couldn't picture this
50-inch screen, money-green leather sofa
Got two rides, a limousine with a chauffeur
Phone bill about two G's flat
No need to worry, my accountant handles that
And my whole crew is loungin'
Celebratin' every day, no more public housin'
Thinkin' back on my one-room shack
Now my mom pimps a Ac' with minks on her back
And she loves to show me off of course
Smiles every time my face is up in The Source
We used to fuss when the landlord dissed us
No heat, wonder why Christmas missed us
Birthdays was the worst days
Now we sip when we thirsty
Uh, damn right, I like the life I live
'Cause I went from negative to positive
And it's all (It's all good, that’s right)
And if you don't know, now you know, uh
You know very well
Who you are
Don't let 'em hold you down
And if you don't know, now you know
Reach for the stars
You had a goal
But not that many
'Cause you're the only one
I'll give you good and plenty
Representin' B-Town in the house
Junior Mafia, mad flavor, uh
Uh, uh, yeah, aightItem Shop Appearances[]
It Was All A Dream has appeared in 9 different Item Shops, on 8 different days.
|
Why are there shops labelled as 'parts'? For varying reasons, Epic Games may decide to add or remove items from the Item Shop before the usual rotation occurs. The Fortnite Wiki treats each change to the Item Shop within a single day as a separate 'part' that makes up the day's Item Shop History. |
Why are there two different numbers for It Was All A Dream's appearances? It Was All A Dream has, on at least one occasion, appeared in more than one shop in a single day. This has resulted in its count for appearances in the Item Shop being higher than the amount of days it has appeared in it. Both counts are listed by the Fortnite Wiki in order to be as accurate as possible, unlike other sources. |

Trivia[]
- A Jam Track of the same song (Juicy) was later released in Chapter 5 Season 4, along with two other songs from The Notorious B.I.G to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his debut album "Ready to Die", originally released in September 13, 1994.
- To keep the song in line with the game's rating, several lines of the song are missing.
- These lines reference Alcohol, Drug Usage and Terrorism as well as using Inappropriate Language. Furthermore, the last two verses of the song are cut off.
- Differently from the Lobby Music, the Jam Track of the same song (Juicy) keeps those references uncensored in the lyrics, with only a few slurs and other swear words being censored.
