Hopes & Dreams

Hope, hope in all the visions

Hope in all the dreams of my livin' where I was living

Hoping some day I wouldn't be bound by my division

Thinking through the grey, I found my inner mission

Time is tickin and I got nothin to waste

I been workin' for days, making music like it's my craze

Reminiscing to the days before I wanted the pay

I was, making my way, now I'm goin' insane

From all the change in my life, thinking my change wasn't right

Rocking chains for the name when the chains wasn't mine

I was, shaped by the light

Blurred in the dark, I was dead in the night

Thinking to myself what death might be like

Now I'm caught up in the dream of makin' my own reality

But I would be rather be working where I got guarantees

And not here gathering cents, this shits so maddening

But I've been livin' with a lack of respect
