Make Believe

[Intro] I wish you were real Instead of make believe [Verse 1] Where everything's fair, people live without care Unless it's coupled with health, we will all share the wealth Where our planet won't melt, don't like the hand you've been delt? It's no biggie for real, you just tell them redeal And you learn how to play, your cards right from the day You saw light and could make it alright anyway Your life will be great, so all I gotta say (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? Where my daughter can play and there's no possible way She could be kidnapped or raped or even hit by a stray Where relationships last like grandparents Nobody is glass, you know transparent Unbreakable soul, we be great as a whole Unafriad to be bold, so we taken control Even making our goals, but it's fake yea I know (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? [Hook] I'ma speak on it Then come up with a plot and give it all I got then sleep on it And I just might pray before I rest I say (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? [Verse 2] Where you would do drugs to get rid of your pain All you need is love would be more than a saying We would value our people and not the money they earn We never stop growing always looking for something to learn And our women would know that their scalp ain't something to burn You were beautiful long before you were fucking with perms Tummy tucks, implants, and such Girl I (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? Where there's only crabs on your plate or in the sea They maybe I wouldn't have bastards hating on me Where hate don't exist and happiness thrives Where we struggle much less to live happier lives We believe in ourselves like we believe in god Wouldn't be up in jail, life wouldn't be as hard I know this dream is far fetched I guess but I (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? [Hook] [Verse 3] Where people stop wishin' and start completin' their mission Where we all would teach fishin', always eager to listen Where industry stable and people pay you your fee Then maybe I would be able to do this youth work for free Where there's no need for a center for alternative learnin' Where the teachers would be worthy of the money they're earnin' Better education, constant elevation (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? I work toward it everyday so I can make you see The world I'm talkin' about ain't just gotta be make believe So whenever you decide to more than complain Maybe the world will change instead of more of the same Children in horrible pain, floss without any aim Lost trying to maintain cause their family's lame They need some dedication, even a better nation (I wish you were real) Hey, I can dream can't I? [Hook]
