I remember my brother used to listen to this song growing up. He passed away two years ago and this song really gives me a nostalgic feeling. Hope you're listening with me big bro!
But can we show much love to Jill Scott on this one??? Everything she touches is GOLDEN, but this remains one of my favorite performances of hers. Immaculate! (Also: "You Got Me" live with The Roots 😍)
Lupe has always been one of the best to ever do it..Such a slept on MC..smh..I miss low hair cut lupe though..He's still good, but this is when his music was so timeless....
I have been listening to this song since 2007 and I just found out that the "Giant Robot" is a metaphor for the inner city...mind = blown. I swear when Lupe passes he will be studied like shakespeare in schools. His lyrics and songs are on THAT level.
This video is almost 8 years old. EIGHT FUCKING YEARS. I know there are older videos but it just gets me every time when i just come across one naturally.
On another note...i saw Lupe perform this song a few years back, and i have to say, it was the greatest hip hop performance of any 1 song i have ever witnessed!
Man I was listening to this during Lil Wayne's mixtape era. I was in middle school and the people around me thought this type of music was lame. I still love this
i hate how great artists like him are only appreciated for mainstream crap music rather than stuff like this he's a really realistic encouraging artist. he's not like all of todays rappers that only tlk about sex and drugs
Excellent performance-- The original version is Daydream by the Wallace Collection performed in the late 1960's; another remake by I-Monster. I like all versions but I think this re-make takes the cake!
Lupe, in 2050 your music still persevered and its message and lessons has surpassed other short lived hip hop artists and music. It pass through club music and mumble rap and is taught in schools. Thank you sir.
I love Jill Scott in this. her voice was made for this song. I wasn't sure if she was covering the original song as well but she just had to put her touch on this one
Meu Deus!! Procurei por tanto tempo essa música, eu era criança quando assistia esse clip naquele dvd de 99 clips de black! Meu irmão vai surtar quando mandar o link pra ele hahahahaha Que nostalgia!!
On of the best songs i have heard in my life i grew up with this hit wow it brings me back just a all TOGETHER classic the moment it was recorded thanks lupe fiasco for this piece of art frozen in time
My favorite Lupe song and that's a tough choice because almost song he drops is classic. This beat is phenomenal, my favorite part being the little part at the end before it fades out. So beautiful.
wow some times a rapper is to smart for there own good Lupe is the one of the most intelligent people I know he has so many bars that go over these chumps heads
I remember in 9th grade my English teacher had us do a project where we break down rap songs and what the lyrics mean and she used this song as an example, ever since i fell in love with the deeper meaning of rap and lyrical rappers. Forever grateful
This dude hasn't released a single bad track but he doesn't get recognition like shitty popular rappers. I guess fame is bad for one's content. Greed, and shit like that fucks with your mind.
I was reading an article about weed which i use and love.and they said it causes daydreams.n hey jus like that.i remembered this jqm from back in 06.which was da best year ever.keep smoking the good herb🔥🔥💯💯
It’s because of you, YOU introduce me to Lupe fiasco through this song. You’ve changed my life for the better. The words don’t exist for how empty I now feel without you by my side. Thank you God for letting our paths cross in this crazy world against all odds, we met and fell madly in love. I’m so lost without you, no woman could ever take your place you will always be the one who got away😓 I WILL ALWAYS LOVE U 🥺🥺🥺 R.I.P MIKAYLA BARRY 😥😓😓😓😓😞
Lyrics Daydream I fell asleep beneath the flowers For a couple of hours On a beautiful day Daydream I dream of you amid the flowers For a couple of hours Such a beautiful day As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes I keep 'em happy cause I might fall out if he cries Scared of heights, so I might pass out if he flies Keep 'em on autopilot cause I can't drive Room enough for one, I tell my homies they can't ride Unless they sittin' on the shoulders but that's way too high Let's try, not to step on the children, The news camera's filmin', this walkin', project building Now there's hoes selling hoes, like right around the toes And the crack heads beg, at about the lower leg There's crooked police, that's stationed at the knees And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs And there's car chase, going on at the waist Keep a vest on my chest I'm sitting in my room, as I'm looking out the face Somethin' to write about I still got some damage from fightin' the White House Just a Daydream I dream of you amid the flowers For a couple of hours Such a beautiful day Daydream I dream of you amid the flowers For a couple of hours Such a beautiful day Now come on everybody let's make cocaine cool We need a few more half naked women up in the pool And hold this mac-10 that's all covered in jewels And can you please put your titties closer to the 22's And where's the champagne, we need champagne Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand And know hold up your chain, slow motion through the flames Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain But not too loud 'cause the baby's sleepin' I wonder if it knows what the world is keeping Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin' Me and my robot tip-toe round creepin' I had to turn my back on what got you paid I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Ghraib But I like to thank the streets that drove me crazy And all the televisions out there that raised me I was Daydream I fell asleep beneath the flowers For a couple of hours Such a beautiful day Daydream I fell asleep beneath the flowers For a couple of hours On a beautiful day Daydream I fell asleep beneath the flowers For a couple of hours Such a beautiful day Daydream I fell asleep beneath the flowers For a couple of hours Such a beautiful day
...Some of the Best 2 Hours of storytelling I've ever seen(next to The Leftovers). That premiere was Nothing short of amazing. Also the reason I found this Dope fucking song!
Lil sis When u was high on ox cotton at 13 pregnant and begged me for a place to stay and I was busy drunk homeless in self pity...I'm sorry. I was never around. God willing I want to change When he pushed you and you lost my niece or nephew...part of me died inside I could have stopped it. Words can't explain my regret. I won't ask you to forgive me

Saw this live in Denver. And a tear came to my eye. This album saved my life!
BRAVO SWEET SOUL

Still song like it's new for me
Of course is still dope...BECAUSE current hip hop is CRAP
All day, everyday.
faxx bro
Ye
But can we show much love to Jill Scott on this one??? Everything she touches is GOLDEN, but this remains one of my favorite performances of hers. Immaculate!
(Also: "You Got Me" live with The Roots 😍)
One of the best examples of how to do sampling the right way
This beat has a sample of a song that uses a sample from a song that was covered.
That's just some ultra sampling right there lol.
Lupe has always been one of the best to ever do it..Such a slept on MC..smh..I miss low hair cut lupe though..He's still good, but this is when his music was so timeless....
Super slept
Goat
He cut off his hair
I have been listening to this song since 2007 and I just found out that the "Giant Robot" is a metaphor for the inner city...mind = blown. I swear when Lupe passes he will be studied like shakespeare in schools. His lyrics and songs are on THAT level.
werd
LOL
ehhh,, wouldn't go THAT far
U just taught me something fuck
His Drogas Wave album was something else man 🔥
This video is almost 8 years old.
EIGHT FUCKING YEARS.
I know there are older videos but it just gets me every time when i just come across one naturally.
Stfu. There's older stuff than this. Stop exaggerating pointless shif
Shit*
now 10 :')
now it's 11 years :o
Official Leotique Naw fool it's still 10. As of May 2017
Lupe is one of the few artist that we have today that makes us feel that Hip-Hop is not dead.
So glad i have music taste this song is older then me
@@flzoe813 me 2005 lol
Second verse shitted on whole hip-hop wanna-be-thugs. One of his best songs and most def his best album. #classic
Truuuuee...hip hop is dead only a few real mc left and he one of them
deff made me a fan for a life...this track with jill on the hook....played this song over and over for so long...
The man was way ahead of his time. Speaking on the game now.
Lupe Timeless this whole album & The Cool Are Truely Classic
Alexander Lex Facts
My dad used to play this song when we would ride around his hometown and it still makes me happy. Those were the good days man.
On another note...i saw Lupe perform this song a few years back, and i have to say, it was the greatest hip hop performance of any 1 song i have ever witnessed!
underrated rapper
Understatement
All i can describe Lupe as is Underrated. Like all of these main uploads and best of his best have like a couple mill views...its really sad
Man I was listening to this during Lil Wayne's mixtape era. I was in middle school and the people around me thought this type of music was lame. I still love this
Kylo Rod bruh i was in middle school and all my friends were Wayne heads but i was into kanye and lupe.
Kylo Rod same, this song is a gem bruh
OG Rod 2006 was wayne and boosie jeezy shit lupa flew under the radio.
I had this CD in 2007 man remember listening to this classic at the age of 18 years old going on 19.
anpataje znmim
Can't believe Lupe made this Mr Robot has a great soundtrack. Shit I want to watch part 2 now.
actually the song in mr robot episode was Daydream in Blue by I Monster
+Hivancar but we all initially think Lupe. It's the first connection made if you don't know the sample.
Is there a version out there other than mr robot with out Jill scott
imdb says its by Lupe( but i want it without rap((
the version by I Monster is pretty good, but not exacly what i expected :\\\
search for the instrumental version. thank me later. :)
listening to this for a couple of hours on a beautiful daaayyyy
i hate how great artists like him are only appreciated for mainstream crap music rather than stuff like this
he's a really realistic encouraging artist. he's not like all of todays rappers that only tlk about sex and drugs
You really gotta Realized and Recognize the beauty in the work of an artist, and Lupe Fiasco is one of the best artists of our generation ❣️❣️❣️🤓

My fav Lupe song 🖤🖤. Still listening in 2019... His words, rhymes, and creative vision...
Excellent performance--
The original version is Daydream by the Wallace Collection performed in the late 1960's; another remake by I-Monster. I like all versions but I think this re-make takes the cake!
Also, Jill Scott's voice is so mesmerizing.
Lupe, in 2050 your music still persevered and its message and lessons has surpassed other short lived hip hop artists and music. It pass through club music and mumble rap and is taught in schools. Thank you sir.
Lupe keeps it real. I wish the world was smart enough to decode what Lupe is trying to get to, like I do.
I love Jill Scott in this. her voice was made for this song. I wasn't sure if she was covering the original song as well but she just had to put her touch on this one
One of my favorite songs and albums of all time period 🔥 Lupe forever one of the 🐐
Lupe was so way ahead of his time!! 🔥🔥
I'm going through Lupe's back catalogue and all I'm seeing is comments about Mr Robot...must be a good show.
It is indeed.
A good show in my opinion, you should check it out.
AGHarris I will 👍
Kamal Hussain Love that show Fsociety!!!!!!!
I love the production a lot, definitely one of my favorite Lupe songs.
Meu Deus!! Procurei por tanto tempo essa música, eu era criança quando assistia esse clip naquele dvd de 99 clips de black! Meu irmão vai surtar quando mandar o link pra ele hahahahaha Que nostalgia!!

Under-Rated Jam......Lupe Fiasco Gem Along with The Talented Jill Scott......
With this song, and particularly those closing two bars, he became one of my favourite rappers. Hasn't left my top 3 since!
Mr robots rocks!!!
Previous Lupe Fiasco music brought me here.
I love this kid...not a kid anymore. One of the few hip hop artists that I show my son, as the best.

Lyrics
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes
I keep 'em happy cause I might fall out if he cries
Scared of heights, so I might pass out if he flies
Keep 'em on autopilot cause I can't drive
Room enough for one, I tell my homies they can't ride
Unless they sittin' on the shoulders but that's way too high
Let's try, not to step on the children,
The news camera's filmin', this walkin', project building
Now there's hoes selling hoes, like right around the toes
And the crack heads beg, at about the lower leg
There's crooked police, that's stationed at the knees
And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs
And there's car chase, going on at the waist
Keep a vest on my chest
I'm sitting in my room, as I'm looking out the face
Somethin' to write about
I still got some damage from fightin' the White House
Just a
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
Now come on everybody let's make cocaine cool
We need a few more half naked women up in the pool
And hold this mac-10 that's all covered in jewels
And can you please put your titties closer to the 22's
And where's the champagne, we need champagne
Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
And know hold up your chain, slow motion through the flames
Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain
But not too loud 'cause the baby's sleepin'
I wonder if it knows what the world is keeping
Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin'
Me and my robot tip-toe round creepin'
I had to turn my back on what got you paid
I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Ghraib
But I like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
And all the televisions out there that raised me
I was
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
On a beautiful day
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
noodle boy *I fell asleep amid the flowers...
thanks Noodleboy for writing these lyrics down here.
thanks!
Quarantine music in 2020..🤲🏿

ThePlain Biscuit Show about sone hackers taking down the 1%

Hip Hop is barely breathing
Lil sis When u was high on ox cotton at 13 pregnant and begged me for a place to stay and I was busy drunk homeless in self pity...I'm sorry.
I was never around.
God willing I want to change
When he pushed you and you lost my niece or nephew...part of me died inside
I could have stopped it.
Words can't explain my regret.
I won't ask you to forgive me
I love u Megan.
Matt Jeevas I'm so sorry

Damn bro. If you need help, call the National Suicide Prevention Helpline at 1-800-273-8255. They are always there to help.
I heard this song for the first time in my buddy's explorer on his system circa 2006. Fell in love instantly. Such a dope classic
incase you're curious. background music to this song is Daydream in Blue by I Monster
+Josh Gibson yup, I knew that song for awhile and recently came across this and I definitely dig it
+Josh Gibson the the original to that is Daydreaming- Wallace Collection.
Very nice
+Josh Gibson A real old 1950's song by Art Tatum called Blue Skies sounds so similar, too. I wonder if its any inspiration at all
+brileeka Music goes full circle doesn't it?
