Dreamin'
(专辑: Healthy Snacks - 2018)
Yeah Uh Yeah I
remember when we could be ignorant to urgency 'Cause back then Pokemon cards were the
currency At 8
years old, the
word "old" meant like 23 And that seemed far away so the
future never worried me We were just kids with GameBoys in backpacks Spending our time with Hot Wheels and hacky sacks Those were goods days in between VHS stacks Sometimes I
wanna go back Growing up was never part of the
plan but Before I
knew it the
process began Now here I
am years later tryna understand 'Cause life looks different to a
boy than a
man As a
kid I
thought someday I'll be an astronaut Maybe a
superstar or superhero fighting robots Perception was reality so I
called all the
shots I
had a
world in my thoughts 'Cause I
was just dreaming Yeah Uh, see I
was just dreaming Cruising down the
street yelling "look ma, no hands" Me and the
neighborhood kids wearing off brand T-shirts and tennis shoes, playing in garage bands Leaning on those kick stands Happiness was in a
juice box, pet rocks, knock-knocks and bicycles Hop-scotch, flip-flops, ring pops and popsicles Thinking I
was rich 'cause I
had 5
dimes and 3
nickles Forget living large it was good living little Now I
sleep a
little less and work a 9
to 5
Traded in my faded jeans for button-ups and ties I
gotta say the
real world caught me by surprise 'Cause when you graduate you have to navigate the
lies Like "settle for a
job where you can make the
most green" "Your career is everything, it's your identity" But the
kid inside of me ain't buying those schemes I'm older now but I'm still me So I'ma keep dreaming Yeah Yeah I'ma keep dreaming Yeah, dorm recording with the
door shut Far from home, in Seattle with the
cord cut People telling me I
gotta generate buzz But I
won't ever have the
stomach to develop guts So you're saying I
won't ever draw crowds? Got my head down on the
desk with some crayons drawing clouds And a
stick figure picture labeled Jacob the
King With a
little yellow crown and a
big old ring What do you think that I
am, an egotistical guy? Man, I
ain't tasted any Eggo since the
gluten-free diet I
ain't dealing with your feelings man, I
severed the
tie You're not a
family guy but you a
critic like Brian And I'm a
broke college rapper tryna open the
vents I
just want some room to breathe and maybe do some events Everybody looking at me, school is asking for rent I
can't pay off all the
damages but here's two cents, yeah Yeah, yeah, I'ma keep dreaming Don't get caught up in the
high Never tell your dream goodbye Don't get caught up in the
high I'ma live the
dreamer life Don't get caught up in the
high Never tell your dream goodbye Don't get caught up in the
high I'ma live the
dreamer life
