VERSE |
|
Where everything's fair, people live without care |
|
Unless it's coupled with health, we would all share the wealth |
|
Where our planet won't melt, don't like the hand you were delt |
|
It's no biggie for real, you just tell them re-deal |
|
And you'd learn how to play your cards right from the day |
|
You saw light and could make it alright anyway |
|
Your life would be great so all I gotta say |
|
I can dream, can't I?! |
|
Where my daughter could play and there's no possible way |
|
She could be kidnapped or raped or even hit by a stray |
|
Where relationships last like my grandparents |
|
And nobody is glass, you know, transparent |
|
Unbreakable soul, we'd be great as a whole |
|
Unafraid to be bold till we're taking control |
|
Even making our goals but it's fake, yeah I know! |
|
I can dream, can't I?! |
|
HOOK |
|
I'ma speak on it |
|
Then come up with a plot, give it all I got then sleep on it |
|
And I just might pray before I rest I say |
|
Amen. Yeah. (I can dream, can't I?!) |
|
VERSE 2 |
|
Where you wouldn't need drugs to get rid of your pain |
|
All you need is love would be more than a saying |
|
We would value our people and not the money they earn |
|
We'd never stop growing always looking for something to learn |
|
And our women would know that their scalp ain't something to burn |
|
You were beautiful long before you were fuckin' with perms |
|
Tummy tucks, implants and such |
|
Girl... I can dream, can't I?! |
|
Where there's only crabs on your plate or in the sea |
|
Then maybe I wouldn't have bastards hatin' on me |
|
Where hate don't exist and happiness thrives |
|
Where we struggle much less and live happier lives |
|
We'd believe in ourselves like we believe in God |
|
Wouldn't be up in jail life wouldn't be this hard |
|
I know this dream is far fetched, I guess |
|
But... I can dream, can't I?! |
|
HOOK |
|
VERSE 3 |
|
Where people stop wishin' and start completing their mission |
|
Where we all would teach fishin' always eager to listen |
|
Where the industries stable and people pay you your fee |
|
Then maybe I would be able to do this youth work for free |
|
Where there's no need for a center for Alternative Learning |
|
And the teachers would be worthy of the money they're earning |
|
Better education, constant elevation |
|
I can dream, can't I?! |
|
I work toward it everyday so I can make you see |
|
The world I'm talking about ain't just gotta be make believe |
|
So whenever you decide to do more than complain |
|
Maybe the world would change instead of more of the same |
|
Children in horrible pain, floss without any AIM |
|
Lost, trying to maintain cause their family's lame |
|
They need some dedication even a better nation |
|
I can dream, can't I?! |
