The Dreamer - D. Green

27 years young, I never thought I’d make it that far

Life a luxury where I’m from, and some don’t make it outta that trap y’all

So this is me and my great escape, ain’t looking backwards, behind me that’s

where it stays

Mark the words I say, that’s all I got at the end of day and a set of stones

that’s gone help pave a nigga way lord willing

I wanted more than what the dealer of the cards dealing, to me life is more

than jewels, women and car dealings

It’s not what eyes on… I come from nothing, I want a Fortune 500,

what your on?

I had to evaluate the things I spend my time, I want to see what life is like

in different time zone

Meek said there’s level to this shit and be not wrong, don’t want to get stuck

on the one I’m on

There’s more to life then New York inner city.

I try to tell em man

I come from where options are limited, and very few make it out

Where people become complacent with their situation

I was either that our find something better

I choose the latter baby

Only time will tell me what I’m fit for, no man, no chick that exist can tell

me what I’m not equipped for

That fight you’ll all lose, someone told me law ain’t in my future,

well future has it, I’m in law school

People doubt me, I look at them, like its all cool, I know they waiting to see

if I make the wrong move

I don’t sweat tho, I’m too cool that, I’m confident In myself, I can’t lose

with that

You can’t bind what’s in the mind of a visionary, permanent thoughts of dreams

they thought were temporary

Until I’m buried the word failure is my adversary, and I refuse to lose

They said that ill amount to nothing, wouldn’t finish school, And crime would

be the best way for me to make the news.

Well watch me change that

If ever you need me to prove you wrong ill arrange that, my mind-state our 50

state couldn’t contain that nah

See…

I always told myself…

That i’ll be damn if I let anyone else be my voice of reasoning.

That’s a conversation between me and time.

(laugh)…

Yeah

I swear its only up here, cause this ain’t where it ends for me

I still have quite a way go, and i don’t know exactly where it’s gone lead

But the heart of a believer, The mind of a leader, searching for a to a better

day, that’s the life of a dreamer
