Lyrics

Intro

I got a dream
I got a dream
I got a dream
I got a dream I got a dream yeah

VS 1

Ive been dreamin
Clouds over head circling like demons yeah
I've believing,
these crows tear me down they been ripping at my seams yeah
nightmares of a rapper trying to stay true
cold sweats i can't sleep my whole night through
I see my people trying to get through
mama on the floor cause she feels she can't find you
god
where did you go?
left us so long
in this world so cold and now
i've been screaming
screaming while i sleep dont let the reaper find a reason
to take my soul cause theres so much more to me
than these sins I hold
forgive my soul
and erase my history

HK

Cause I got a dream yeah
I got a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yah
I got a dream yeah
I got a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yeah

VS 2

I close my eyes so I can dream
so i can dream
pray for the better for myself
for my team
if I start to tell you all that i've seen youd be appalled
the things that ive done been through man you would applaud
but hold your applause it aint time for that
Here for a cause and i aint taking naps
Here to cause your freaking
Ears to pause when you hear my words
I probably break the laws knocking down the walls
that they created
I see your mind sets locked
its been gated
im trying to help the soul, I feel so elated
the foundation he laid it
now its time for me to take it
translate it into something thats weighted
doors open only if you knock
shootin at these dreams without a glock
so i look up at the clock
the time ticks
and i pray that I do not get impatient
but here for my dreams just like the doctors

HK


Cause I got a dream yeah
I got a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yah
I got a dream yeah
I got a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yeah
Manny has a dream yah
