Dreams

Look, I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do
Look, look, look

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to the ones that do

Peace, love, and unity, yeah
I hope they preach that at my eulogy, yeah
'Cause what I'm saying isn't new to me, yeah
I'm just tryin' to build up fluency

Listen, I ain't as proud as I used to be
To say that I'm broke when I know I ain't right
I got flows that are colder than the oceans at night
I want my people to be free
Like, what's your goals in this life?

The limitations they creatin' and trifling our minds
You got a dream, go out and get that, brother
Love, peace, and honor
Could never be afraid of no other
I'm accomplishing some self-worth
Now what's your self worth?

You see the pinnacle turning up and about
Never fading, I'm saying there's no debating
They waiting, anticipating for something that won't come
I put my dreams in my hands, I'm gonna get that job done
Dreams in my hands, I'm gon' get that job done

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do
Look, look, look

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do

Yo, what's being gentrified, people must assemble
Colorism got my sister feeling less special
The pain runs deeper than great Grand Canyon
Feds arrest Kuwami, but forget about Adam
Look about the scene, something's really out of balance

Black Lives Matter, that was in and out of fashion
Talking revolution, I'll believe it when it happens
We riot when they kill us, it's a reoccuring pattern
I ain't being sour, there's a lot we gotta do
And I ain't got the answers, I'm just harboring the truth

Willie Lynch fear me got me thinkin' 'bout a move
Revolution ain't tidy, what the fuck is in the truth?
Garvey on Monday
Martin on a Tuesday
What I'm trying to say is it's an everyday flex

My people's in the state, brother, nothing ain't blessed
I know that I'm a king, and I don't ever second guess
If you got dream, better grab it by the neck (word)
You should never let it breathe 'til your shit's in full effect
I ain't done nothing 'til my brother's seeing checks
Like why's he on the bus, how can I be in the left?

Ride religion and captialism
Martin had a vision
We need an abolition for this mad ambition
Never been a mathmetician
But something isn't adding up

They want my brothers all up in the prison
I'm on a mission, look and you'll see the difference
I was ripping through the rhythm
It's nothing that they envision
They love it when a brother' singin "Kumbaya"
Like Koffi isn't threatening, I love him, he's a star

Well, fuck that
Things that a brother gotta say
And if I get in trouble, I can never run away
I ain't wishin' on a star, I just do it and it pays
You should label me the realest in the game

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do
Look, look, look

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do

Have you thought about this life of bliss?
This life you live, some in a race to try and get rich
But why so quick, be missing out on life's best bits
I fight for this, our ancestors died for this
Look, freedom of will, trust to the side
Options we have to live our best life
That's a luxury that most still can't afford
I can't ignore the fact we don't love no more

Like why the rich so rich
Why the poor so poor
Probably talk 'bout text, but we don't talk for sure
But why the people making laws, think they above they law
The drugs, the war, the barrons and the heartless
Move into places where they ain't got penny to spare
But pennies they share, the see it's what's odds is theirs
I can't compare a love that's too much to bear
I dream of days where we don't see no hunger here

Up in the air as the wind breathes
Tell me how every puff fits the needs
Tell me, have you ever thought about what comes next?
Most men the try to hip it like they upset
Like, who want to lead in a search, yeah
How's the proof of your mental?
Look, don't be fooled by that stencil
Carbon copies are like the poof of my pencil

Look, I chose love over everything
I freed up my soul
They say "my freedom of speech"
But how much freedom is sure?
I want my kids to to live good, proper house and home
But that's a dream 'cause I pay London
I can't get out alone

This life is filled with empty promises
More time I kick back feelin' proper pissed
That the proper is ran by the same thugs
Who run our policies
Like what's the cost of it?

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do
Look, look, look

I got dreams, I hope I see them through
But most people don't believe in you
Look, look
Middle finger to the ones that hate
But more life to ones that do
