Verse 1:

Hey what's good fam, I hope you good

Remember, I was homies with you back when we was both in school

You never graduated, I never understood

You were the smartest person back in the old neighborhood

I saw you on TV, what was that about?

Overnight celebrity, OD on some charlie pow

Yo that's some gangsta shit I never even thought about

Pacino in Miami or with Sonny, adios and ciao

I'm feeling the nostalgia

We used to dream of manors with hangers filled up with dollars

While smoking marijuana, we reaching for nirvana

Mountain lions in Nevada, or perhaps in the savanna

We used to dream of Havana

Smoking Cuba's best cigars with Castro in cubanas

I know you feel encumbered by the weight of your medulla

Oblongata, with the weight of revolution lying on your shoulders but

 

Chorus:

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

 

Verse 2:

Hey what's good, I hope you feel better dude

I hope the medication is still something you consume

The homies and I visited but they didn't let us through

So I'm writing letters hoping the message just gets to you

I read this article the other day, I guess it's true

They say comedians are more likely to have depressive moods

So that changes how happiness is to be assumed

Cause you're unhappy but you were always were the funnest dude

I always viewed them as lucky and super blessed

But all these negative emotions were just simply suppressed

So I guess, we never really know when are depressed

Until the demons in your head visually manifest

I hope you're getting better won't be long 'till you coming home 

And I sent some pictures of a place on your phone

Pictures of Havana

I'm hoping we can go, when you finally regain some stamina

 

Chorus:

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

Smoking a cigar, sipping on pina coladas

We used to dream of Havana

Filling up my cup, barbecues in La Fontana

We used to dream of Havana

I was gonna get a souvenir for my abuella

We used to dream of Havana

Chilling by the beach while we singing with gitaras

 

Verse 3:

Hey man, you've been there for quite awhile

I ain't tripping though these things really take awhile

So I'm sending you some files I compiled

Of old projects we used to do when we were juveniles

I hope you find some inner peace

I'm glad you're off the drugs, man addiction is a disease

I'm happy for you dawg, soon you'll be back on the streets

Leading protests and screaming fuck the police

You're always fighting for the underdog

I'm glad you fighting for yourself now, slam it in like tomahawks

This'll be a new beginning not an epilogue

We're swinging back: full force like a pendulum

We're channeling Havana

You was always Che, and I was part of the armada

Every sorcerer needs to recharge his mana

We're about to box, sayonara to Pandora

 

Chorus:

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

We used to dream of Havana

Smoking a cigar, sipping on pina coladas

We used to dream of Havana

Filling up my cup, barbecues in La Fontana

We used to dream of Havana

I was gonna get a souvenir for my abuella

We used to dream of Havana

Chilling by the beach while we singing with gitaras
