Dreams are still alive They don't ever die Close your eyes and imagine it right now We got to keep dreaming we giving life meaning Staying clear of the lies
I wasn't suppose to be here, compose and flow here Perform for your ears saying ah yeah's My dream was to skate, Cali calling my name Who'd a thought my foot would break, me limping in pain? I ate my own pride, when I started to rhyme Mamma told me ye got to grow up can't skate all your life Picture me history is shaping me sifting me, Changing me to a man, Xing out all my plans Not what I wanted my dreams was so different I deal with what I'm giving not trying to be him or him
Dreams are still alive They don't ever die Close your eyes and imagine it right now We got to keep dreaming we giving life meaning Staying clear of the lies
I used to fantasize a lot about what I don't got Chick on my arm even a necklace with a cross I didn't have money, No dad and only mommy To raise two kids, even my toes looked funny I thought I missed out when really I'm on clouds I did my work while all my friends went out I didn't party much I think I touched drugs once My buddies all laughing at me about that Christ Jesus stuff Now if you seen us how the cards of switched hands They sleep at their parents while I'm living in first class Every night I'd always pray to God for tomorrow Who'd thought I'd be married lying next to a model Crazy how I elevated everyday celebrating Dreams do come true exercise patience
Life is kind a bitter ain't it, it's full a pain and changes Parking tickets that tick us off and leave you tainted Heart pumping, your thinking of jumping Devils hunting don't do it cousin You don't know what is forth coming Brighter days a higher raise Light the fire play the game Regroup or hide ye face That's why I'm authentic that's why ye need effort Credit is deserved, I re-worked my world If everything worked out the way I first wanted I'd a married the wrong chick and I'd been stuck think Life's embarrassed ye, laughed and stared at ye In the end it only builds up your character
You know what I'm saying man, everybody's got an opinion in this industry You got to just do what you know, don't let know one tell you nothing, hold on to your dreams and feel it go for it
