Just a dream di Nelly, che vediamo nel video musicale youtube, sta sicuramente funzionando benissimo come anticipazione del nuovo album del rapper, almeno a giudicare dal successo di questo brano nelle classifiche di tutto il mondo.
Il rapper ha deciso di presentare il suo nuovo album al pubblico con un brano che parla di amore in modo anche piuttosto struggente. Just a Dream, infatti, affronta un amore finito male, dove una delle due parti, quella che viene lasciata, si trova da sola a pensare ai suoi sbagli che hanno portato la persona amata ad andarsene per sempre, trovando qualcun altro da amare.
La canzone si distanzia, quindi, dal solito brano rap che preferisce parlare di divertimento, belle donne e sesso. Ci troviamo in questo caso davanti ad un brano che parla di amore con toni tristi e con una melodia decisamente marcata che è arrivata a colpire Nelly e a fargli scegliere di includerlo in Nelly 5.0, il suo prossimo album, a dispetto dell’opinione negativa del produttore.
Testo "Just a dream"
I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
I was at the top and I was like I’m at the basement.
Number one spot and now she found her a replacement.
I swear now I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby.
And now you ain't around, baby I can't think.
Shoulda put it down. Shoulda got that ring.
Cuz I can still feel it in the air.
See her pretty face run my fingers through her hair.
My lover, my life. My shorty, my wife.
She left me, I'm tied.
Cuz I knew that it just ain't right.
I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
When I be ridin man I swear I see her face at every turn.
Tryin to get my usher over, I can let it burn.
And I just hope she notice she the only one I yearn for.
Oh I miss her when will I learn?
Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback.
Now I'm in the club thinkin all about my baby.
Hey, she was so easy to love. But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough.
I'm goin through it every time that I'm alone.
And now i'm missin, wishin she'd pick up the phone.
But she made a decision that she wanted to move one.
Cuz I was wrong.
And I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.
I said, if you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.
I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
And I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
