Living the Dream (For Real)

Lived in a bubble doing my thing
Dreaming 'bout my music happening
I did the best I could at the time
Wished for more but keeping it mine

The dreams weren't real, but my feelings were
Could reality be preferred? Could reality be preferred?
Could reality be preferred?

Now I'm living the dream for real
Never a need for a record deal
Decades later can't beat how I feel
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right

If not ready you cannot rush
Taking your time is a must
Gotta create your own space
In a world where you feel in place

Develop and progress
An entity with identity
Making progress
With artistic integrity

Now I'm living the dream for real
Never a need for a record deal
Decades later can't beat how I feel
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right

Now the pieces have come together
And now I'm living
Happily ever after
With meaning love and laughter
Reaping no income but fun
Love what has become
The way I did what I did was the way
That it had to be done
Before the time wasn't right
I was not quite at the point I had to be
Waiting for the pieces
To come together eventually

And now I'm living the dream for real
Never a need for a record deal
Decades later can't beat how I feel
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right

Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right

And now I'm living the dream for real
Never a need for a record deal
Decades later can't beat how I feel
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
Doing what I like, how I like right - too right
