The Dreamer
(专辑: The Collection, Vol. 1 - 2015)
I
am the
Dreamer and I
say, "I'm dreaming 'til I'm dead and gone!" Cause life is like a
breath that fades upon an hourly stage I
am a
Dreamer, and I
take my pain and put it in another song You can go on and let your dreams die But I
ain't stopping 'til mine gets justified! Wish I
could count on one hand how many heartaches In a
lifetime I
could find from these dirty snakes The
world may never feel me, as I
present the
real me But stopping is not an option until they pop me and they kill me You gon' hear me in your thoughts while I
got a
voice to sing... The
icon of a
dream like Martin Luther King As long as I
breathe the
devil is gonna tempt me But I'd rather die tempted than to live this life empty. Seal it Cause for the
moment haterz are gon' try, but Dreamers don't die We leave a
legacy to speak in our place Long after we go down to the
grave But I
dream, though it seems... Everyday it's just me against everything Trials are gon' rise until I
rise with the
King But I
know what it means to defeat their sting You can tell me that I'm never gonna be nothing But I'm loving every minute cause I
know I'm destined to dream! I
am the
Dreamer and I
say, "I'm dreaming 'til I'm dead and gone!" Cause life is like a
breath that fades upon an hourly stage I
am a
Dreamer, and I
take my pain and put it in another song You can go on and let your dreams die But I
ain't stopping 'til mine gets justified! I've been through hell and back... and hell ain't what I'm planning for I
over-stand the
pain... but still don't understand it though I've been persecuted... until I
found the
antidote So go on and die for nothing... I'm gon' die for what I'm standing for Walking through this sea of suffering, but still I
persevere I
done cried enough... don't need no tattooed tears I've been dreaming for years, doubting the
man in the
mirror But if God is with me, homie tell me what I
got to fear? I
count the
cost on the
day I
was marked by the
Cross I
could die tomorrow as a
martyr and there's nothing lost So you can't kill me with your weapons, words or prejudice... How you gonna take my life when God already scheduled it? Cause I
dream, though it seems... Everyday it's just me against everything And everyday it's just me against everything I
am the
Dreamer and I
say, "I'm dreaming 'til I'm dead and gone!" Cause life is like a
breath that fades upon an hourly stage I
am a
Dreamer, and I
take my pain and put it in another song You can go on and let your dreams die But I
ain't stopping 'til mine gets justified! I
wait for a
new day, where everything's okay and I
Can see my dreams before my eyes... before I
die I'm gon' dream until I'm dead and gone! I'm gon' dream until I'm dead and gone! I'm gon' dream until I'm dead and gone! Cause I
am THE DREAMER I
am the
Dreamer and I
say, "I'm dreaming 'til I'm dead and gone!" Cause life is like a
breath that fades upon an hourly stage I
am a
Dreamer, and I
take my pain and put it in another song You can go on and let your dreams die But I
ain't stopping 'til mine gets justified!
