BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
Dream
- They say I dream, while I’m just dreaming of a family
- one that will love me, and appreciate who I want to be
- but I’m wishing on the stars, that my dream will go real far
- but my star went and fell, and now I’m bringing broken bones to show and tell
- I want to be who I am, don’t want to fake, don’t be pretend
- I want to make people proud, go on stage and rock a crowd
- I spend each moment and prep, trying follow in Macklemore’s footsteps
- I want to be him rap like him, while I’m trying my best to fit in
- trying to repent of my sins, to many don’t know where to begin
- All i know is I want to rap, I want a beat that goes rap tat a tat tat
- Screaming Ollie Ollie Oxen free, hey you want to be my family
- I doubt time is what I got, cuz right now it’s me versus the clock
- They said things will get better, they got worse, tell me doctor am I cursed?
- I’m just trying to make it through the verse, help me I need a nurse
- no i need life support, cuz my heart beats falling a little too short
- Keep me alive keep me alive, tell me you need me by your side
- that’s only thing I need to survive, so will I live or will I die?
- I found myself in a grave, crying cuz the best is all I gave
- Wonder who felt more pain, me or you knowing I could’ve been saved
- But no, you let me die, I’m over here wondering to myself why
- Did you think it was my time? Or would it be easier to say goodbye?
- I mean I really don’t know, Is this all you got to show?
- Can I not have just one friend, who will stay with me until the end
- One that will give me a helping hand? Save me from drowning in quicksand
- Or maybe save me from my thoughts, I don’t know even what I’m not
- Am I bad, am I good? The struggles of living in the hood
- Am I a bad boy? Breaking little kid’s toys
- My life is getting destroyed, front line duty getting deployed
- But look now I’m dressed in green, this is not who I wanted to be
- Front line facing the enemy, hoping they don’t see me
- Now I’m holding a gun, how do people see this as fun
- Why was I bad in my past, now bullets are going a little to fast
- Can’t run, can’t hide, can’t get away I already tried
- I’m down I’m crying in pain, veteran gives a meaning to my name
- One thing I want you to know, getting to the top means taking things slow
- I didn’t get to follow mine, I promise you’ll get there if you try
- I’ll be cheering from the sideline, and one secret don’t ever deny
- I know you can go far, so you can be driving your nice sports car
- Go out there and be who you want to be, go out and let your life free
- It might not happen, it may seem, but do it for me and follow your dream
