Dead Dreams

Money
How many dreams die cause of money?
How many dreams have we killed subconsciously?
To keep our fake perfect picture world goin'
To later on, to confess the kills we've done
Teary eye, ramblin' on like Patrick Bateman
To realize the dreams are now dust gone as Paul Allen
How we ridiculed the ones that went for them
Foolish dreamers
Until now that they're successful
They're not the foolish ones are they?
All the dreams that I had
Which succeeded are so low
That it can be counted with one hand
I've lost count on the dead dreams
I was to busy on materials, being a consumer
Till I got a punch of reality from Tyler Durden
Woke up
From a splash of water like Jordan Belfort
Knowing now that I need to be rich to be noble
That I need to be successful with my dreams
It's no longer ifs and wants
It's now whens and needs
My mind was at the brink of snappin'
The Tate brothers fully broke it
Like Morpheus pullin' Neo out of the Matrix
The lights have turned on
And my eyes have been able to adjust
The world I used to know is completely different
I was able to keep focus
Thanks to Jordan Peterson
I look at the ground
I see broken pictures of me
Past and present, future ones too
Now I realized that these must be broken dreams

Broken dreams
So many here lie
Been focused on the modern world
Not focused on myself
Past, Present, Future
Dreams successful, unsuccessful
Broken dreams
So many here lie
Been focused on the modern world
Not focused on myself
Past, Present, Future
Dreams successful, unsuccessful
Broken Dreams

Baseball
Soccer
My biggest griefs
Dead with time and age
Can't become a professional in either realm
I have faith I would have a career in it
10 year old me thought
Still living with my parents
He would be ashamed what I'm doing now
And for the most of it, I am too
Believin' that I'll win the Powerball
So does the rest of the world
Workin' to be the biggest name in the rap game
Yea put that near impossible
But I'll do it
The idea of the dream dyin', shrivelin', disintegratin'
It's to much to bear
The classic quote
"The odds aren't in your favor"
Hove the odds ever been in my favor?!?
Like Batman in Dawn of Justice
"The world only makes sense if you force it to"
The world can identify as metal
And I'll be Magneto
Bend the world to my will
Now, I'm not becomin' psychotic
But you have to become a bit crazed to make the dream a success
Or you be crazed knowing your dream died
That you killed willingly

Broken dreams
So many here lie
Been focused on the modern world
Not focused on myself
Past, Present, Future
Dreams successful, unsuccessful
Broken dreams

Now I'm not here to be your enemy
I'm a reminder
Think of the dream you have right now
Now what about the one before it
Did it die?
Now do you want it to have the same outcome?
Good
Work on this dream
It won't be easy
It'll be hard
But you got to keep pushin'
Pressin'
To get that dream open
Out of the chest that's locked
Make that rock become diamond
Dreams are like pretty girls
They're endless
An infinite amount
You only need one to focus on
Keep your eye on the ball
The surroundings will change
You got to be prepared mentally
Prior to the song endin'
Make the goals to earn that reality
You know the drill
Walk, jog, then run
Marathon style no sprint
I'm motivation
Not discipline
Wake up everyday ready to work
It doesn't have to be big
Just don't let that dream die
Visit the graveyard every once in a while
To remind yourself what'll happen
If you let it slip your mind

Broken dreams
So many here lie
Been focused on the modern world
Not focused on myself
Past, Present, Future
Dreams successful, unsuccessful
Broken dreams
