The Dream

They say what you crave for is gonna be yours
But what I crave for is already mind
As I look in the past, I feel depressed
When I look in the future, I feel delighted
Am living the live, am chasing a dream
Mama said I always gotta believe in my self
Keep your family close and God closer
And that's how you gon reach for the stars

And they might push you to ground
But you gonna bounce back
You might think of all the times
When you were laughed at
But you gon have the last laugh
With your head held high
Coz all the pain and the struggle
Took you to the spotlight
Let's toast to the underdog
Toast to the dream
Toast to all who believed in the dream
Coz that dream is reality
My goal's right in front of me
Now every single day is an excuse to be proud of it
Let's go

I believe that
I can be the one to succeed
I don't get why
Everybody's looking at me
It's not their life it's mine
And I want to be free
They don't know what it's like to be
Chasing the dream

And it just started like a dream
Spitting verse when I was only a teen
Back then we were too broke to dream big
So we kept 'em tight
Locked away and threw the keys
Society conformed us
Reality consumed us
While in the main time our dreams remained locked up
We tried to keep our face up
Did everything to keep
We didn't know
That this game was rigged from the start up
But you can only hold back talent for so long
My dreams big and my arms aren't too long
Not to touch this
Pack up my bags and move on in to a better me
With lyrics the strength I draw from
With every stroke of a pen
With every drop of a line
I never live with regrets
My only goals to survive
In a world that's govern by fear
I plan to raise up the bar enough
No despair
Let us be clear
I got my eye on the prize and I won't disappear
Into the darkness of fear and despair
Coz the only true strength is believing in your self
So am leading myself to a place were
Everyone lives free from stress
Yeah with zero percent of the stress and the hustle
No need for the struggle
Evade all the huddles
With nothing but bubbles just floating on your glass
Like you just won the lotto

I believe that
I can be the one to succeed
I don't get why everybody's looking at me
It's not their life it's mine
And I want to be free
They don't know what it's like to be
Chasing the dream

So, pick up one dream
So, pick up one goal
Coz the truth is, it's all under your control
No more excuses
Just take the chance and don't let go
Of the edge standing between now and the next door
To a whole new world
Where hardships are distant memories that you own
Who would have thought that underdogs could be so bold
Now you racing to the top like Hussain bolt
Let's go!

I believe that
I can be the one to succeed
I don't get why everybody's looking at me
It's not their life it's mine
And I want to be free
They don't know what it's like to be chasing the dream

Yeah
So there you have it
Keep going man
Don't let nobody tell you
You can't do nothing
Hustle everyday
All day
Keep going
And keep growing
Peace out
