Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sticks and stones may break my bones, words killed me long ago
Ever since I heard the word "enough"
I see people walking, taking stride, I learned every man is mad with pride
Built on a love for the lie
Power is the meaning of life
[Chorus]
And I'm dying for something new
Why can't we change the world when we can change the truth?
They'll say, "Boy, keep on dreaming", it's all this boy can do
Tryna dream myself out of this nightmare
[Verse 2]
Old ways bringing me to tears, don't cry for death, it's just a fear
Something that you made up in your head
Work me till you break me down, retire once I'm in the ground
Just to replace me when I'm gone
Yeah, it's the same old song
[Chorus]
And I'm dying for something new
Why can't we change the world when we can change the truth?
They'll say, "Boy, keep on dreaming", it's all this boy can do
Tryna dream myself out of this nightmare
[Bridge]
And I wonder if there's something wrong with me
They're screaming at me through my television screen
I just wanna live my life, oh, say can you see
Can you see?
[Outro]
And I'm dying for something new
Why can't we change the world when we control the truth?
They'll say, "Boy, keep on dreaming", it's all this boy can do
Tryna dream myself out of this nightmare
