thecitizen - sweet dreamer lyrics
[intro: thecitizen]
d_mn
okay, okay
(okay) yuh
[verse 1: thecitizen]
my momma always told me that i’d make it one day, and i know she ain’t lying
i had to come up from nothing and see my family crying
i had to witness all the psycho sh_t, and drunken violence
i had to carry on through school when my homie was dying
that sh_t caught me by surprise
i had to learn to hide my pain, but that’s a waste of time
and i can’t say it to your face, so let me say it now
and i can’t stand it with this mothaf_ckas, who think i’m just saying sh_t to make it rhyme
[chorus: lenny white]
dreams are very often meant to be
if you believe, your life can be so very free
we have our cares
sometimes our future seems unclear
there is a place
we all can go, it’s very near
[verse 2: thecitizen]
my last good memory that i had was with jalen, and then he went away
back in 3rd grade, thinking my life was gonna stay the same
he showed me that i can learn to play, and cope with all this pain
ever since that day, man, i ain’t been the same
sh_t..
i was robbed of my childhood, now i’m more mature than y’all
i was thinking is it life or death? is this the only chance i get?
i used to wonder in my bed, when y’all were playing ball
and i be hearing shots outside, but they ain’t 3’s
man these 9’s will come and then get you paralyzed
and you could call me weak, but this isn’t no f_cking happy life
i used to dream of a happy life
i’m used to it now, i can’t do nothing but fantasize my, dreams
[chorus: lenny white]
dreams are very often meant to be
if you believe, your life can be so very free
we have our cares
sometimes our future seems unclear
there is a place
we all can go, it’s very near
