Lyrics

Yeah baby, uh
Come on
Gotta keep dreaming
Yeah
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Come on
I wasn't supposed to be here, compose and flow here
Perform for your ears, singing all years
My dream was to skate, Cali calling my name
Who'd have thought my foot would break, me living in pain
I ate my own pride when I started to rhyme
Mama told me I gotta grow up, can't skate all your life
Picture me, history is shaping me
Sifting me, changing me to a man
Exing out all my plans
Not what I wanted, my dreams were so different
I deal with what I'm given, not trying to be him or him
Dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Come on
I used to fantasize a lot about what I don't got
Chick on my arm, even a necklace with a cross
I didn't have money, no dad and only mommy
To raise two kids, even my toes looked funny
I thought I missed out when really I'm on clouds
I did my work while all my friends went out
I didn't party much, I think I touched drugs once
My buddies all laughing at me, love that Christ Jesus stuff
Now if you seen us out, the cars are switched and
They sleep at the parents while I'm living in first class
Every night I'd always pray to God for tomorrow
Who thought I'd be married lying next to a model?
Crazy how I elevated every day celebrating
Dreams do come true, exercise patience
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Come on
Ayo, life is kinda bitter, ain't it?
It's full of pain and changes
Parking tickets that take us off and leave you tainted
Heart pumping, you're thinking of jumping, devil's something
Don't do it cousin, you don't know what is forthcoming
Brighter days, a higher praise
Light the fire, play the game, regroup, hide your face
That's why I'm authentic, that's why you need effort
Credit is deserved, I reworked my world
If everything worked out the way I first wanted
I'd have married the wrong chick and I'd have been stuck
Think, life's embarrassed you, laughed and stared at you
In the end it only builds up your character
You know what I'm saying man?
Everybody's got an opinion in this industry
You just gotta do what you know
Don't let no one tell you nothing
Hold on to your dreams, baby, you know
Go for it
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Ayo, dreams are still alive, they don't ever die
Close your eyes and imagine it right now
We gotta keep dreaming, we giving life meaning
Staying clear of the lies
Come on
Ayo, dreams are still alive
Dreams are still alive
Uh, right now
