Poor Mans Dreams

[Intro] Yeah, yeah Poor mans dream Poor mans need Can You save me [Verse 1] Yeah, stuck in a world living a poor mans dream Truly a search for what this poor man needs A little bit of Jesus and a cup of Codeine Remedy to a melody that's putting me at ease But only for a moment And leaves me though I hold it Leaving like a memory Disowned atonement Disrobed at his home when I sit alone with The shame that consumes, surrounds and then it closes Humility covered with layers of insecurity Pride of aside in place of what truly worries me We attempt to grow up Grow cold, hurriedly Perfect a Facebook of self pain, it's so perfectly Allowed us to Photoshop salvation Oh p90x I wait to the Saviour Self relying tendencies Coupled with false worship In pursuit of this lie, what the world calls perfect Close the gap of worth and what's worse and Make beautiful the sin that we've been cursed with Ration all the evil and bring it to the surface And accept it as holy and ignore that it's murder Open the word of God and find compromise Turn on the radio and vibe out to lies Excuse me, I don't mean to over analyse Just try and see it through my eyes [Hook] We're living in a poor mans dream Trying to find what this poor man needs Lord can You tell me what's Your name And can You save me In the poor mans dream Trying to find what this poor man needs Lord I know Your name And can You save me with the poor mans dream [Verse 2] How does someone else out there define poverty In the same way I guess you would define honesty Personified subjectively riches come in all forms And a sincere lie can calm all storms No right and wrongs seem to be set in stone Fingertip of God carving the road to a perfect soul And though not your own You can do as commanded And still be damned and never even know it You see the law was provided to define steps Until that law was required and divined flesh Never to [?] the ten laws said by God Himself Only acknowledge weakness and deny guard of self You see for me this is much more than a dope 16 When they quote my verse they quote my King And my hopes and dreams are rooted in the Lord never given me an award Or any applause Whole world trying to find peace Lost sheep My mission is to show them hope is within arms reach Just reach out and grab it Surrender your heart and then God will come and take all that baggage I know it's weighing you down making it hard to survive I'm just trying to see it through your eyes I know it's weighing you down making it hard to survive God sees it through your eyes [Hook] [Outro] Poor mans dream Trying to find what this poor man needs Lord can You tell me what's Your name And can You save me In the poor mans dream Trying to find what this poor man needs Lord I know Your name And can You save me with the poor mans dream
