Nothing but a Dream

[Chorus] This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream [Verse 1] I wake up in the morning like Bright eyes, blue skies Sunlight peeking through my blinds Open it a little now I'm seeing outside The pane of the window seems to block the rays Of sunshine, that I feel in my soul Still I let in molecule after molecule Living life for the thrill not the ridicule Like the world made us cynical So I'm looking up to the sky making sure I'm not identical To all the darkness around me Haters tryna clown me Dark rain vapors but they'll never ever cloud me So I'm staying dry; dry cry in my tears I'm living in the moment overcoming all my fears Cos where I come from we ain't taking up the rear We're the chosen Feel the time get frozen Tick tock in my watch, non-existent I know I got good intents But sometimes I get pulled into the system I hope The Lord still listens To the sad cries of a low life fella When I let it out no beat, acapella I know I've been to hell and back But the stellar fact Is that I've been getting up when I fell on my back [Chorus] So I'm living my life Like it's nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream [Verse 2] It's nothing but a dream and there's nothing in between I'm tryna paint a picture but I'm running outta ink And every time I figure that's the time I never think I put in so much rigor and it passes in a blink Like 1,2,3 and it's gone I know you feel it too when I say I'm the one My light shining bright you could say I'm the sun And even when it's dark I just let the fire burn Put the ashes in the urn I pray I never turn I'm seeing all these visions but somehow I never learn I'm going on a mission for the passion do I yearn Hope it never ends Hope it is eternal Hope it lasts forever, forever, forever Ever When I spell it out, go hard to the letter Cleaning off the mirror so I'm seeing me clearer My eyes on my dreams as I'm heading to the finish Line Gimme time I'll be proving me right Feeling only I could understand my plight Racing down the middle never veering to the right Got it in sight Now it's full blast ahead Going to the future leave the past in my wake I know I'm in a dream but I'm feeling wide awake You gotta go hard when your life is at stake So I wait [Chorus] This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream This is my life Nothing but a dream
