Thats true, that could happen, but not to me, i never experience that for some reason

If the coffee is preventing you from getting to sleep then it is an issue. If it is not it may very well help.
Caffeine may help to engage the conscious mind while at rest.

Well i should be able to nod off to sleep no problems even with the coffee going on, and i was thinking the same that it could trigger consciousness in the dream, or better yet, keep my mind awake and bring me to sleep paralysis!

Thanks for the help guys, any other opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Ok well, that changed my views of what SP is, i always saw it as your body falling asleep before your mind. Don't think it's gonna have any effect on that now...

Well, i come back with news...I think the coffee stuffed around with my dreaming because i cannot remember a thing.

No, you probably aren't going to lucid dream until about 4 in the morning at the earliest. The caffeine will be out of your system by then, that stuff gets metabolized very quickly.
