Dreamer - Journalist 103

Yo, I dream of blue skies—never seeing cloudy days\nI’m on a high all the time without the purple haze\nClaiming a bounty when everybody’s health is good\nNo more shots getting sprayed within our neighborhoods\nCall me a dreamer, but this here is an achievable goal\nJust depends on how far that you’re willing to go\nTo believe in what’s real or will you choose the matrix?\nIt’s 2000 and 12—it ain’t no time for fakeness\nAchieving greatness only because My Lord decreed it\nAnd for that I’m forever humble, my people peep it\nThis ain’t a secret—just overshadowed by false desires\nYou can’t see what’s in front of you, keep looking behind ya\nNo more sadness leadin' to the sad stories\nNo more trapping on the block leadin' the war stories\nSome niggas scheming, other is niggas is frontin'\nBut I’m a big dreamer, so watch me come up with somethin'\nYo, I always dream about being with the ones I love\nNo more days of the purple brain and crying thugs\nTo get the wisdom of the prophets, I studied they mission\nTo have the faith for the Christian, so I bear witness\nUpon hearing the clear message, some people listen\nThe truth can never be denied in any condition\nSipping on the finest wine—no intoxication\nNo longer needing the protests and demonstrations\nDraped in the silk robes with the green bouquet\nArms covered in gold, gauntlets is set astray\nGot the purified mace with the blushest eyes\n'Cause we struggle from day to day in our worldly lives\nBut until that time arrives, it’s a constant battle\nTryna stay out the Devil’s shackles and hell’s castle\nSome gents scheming, other gents be frontin'\nBut I’m a big dreamer, so watch me come up with somethin'\n«I'm going on a one-way street…»
