Dreams (feat. Kofi Stone)

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
