Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah
Just go ahead and hum to 'em
Uh, everybody
Let the beat breathe
[Verse 2]
I have a dream
That's similar to Dr. King's
Let freedom ring in the streets
I have a dream that there was nothin' left to protest
Because all of God's people would treat each other equal
[Verse 3]
I have a dream
That our bloodstained blocks where young men are shot are now clean
No more shoulders cried on with mothers' tears
I have a dream that the #MeToo Movement was not needed
And all of our women like queens they were treated
[Verse 4]
I have a dream that our soldiers came home and the war stopped
Prison wasn't for profit, treatin' bodies like stocks
I have a dream
[Verse 5]
That from dawn until dust
That we all know Your love
Till we turn into dust
[Verse 6]
Oh, God, I have a dream
Dream, dream, dream
I have a dream
Dream, dream, dream
I have a dream
Dream, dream, dream
Oh, Lord, I have a dream, dream, dream (Dream)
I have a dream, dream, dream (Dream)
I have a dream
I have a dream
[Verse 7]
I look around the world and all I see
Is just a broken version of what it's supposed to be (Yeah)
Murder, lie, cheat, kill, steal for the love of money and pursuit of power
Kids wounded by adult figures and they cry at night in their scar tissue
Politician made decision that hinders the lots of the poor
And don't see the issue
[Verse 8]
Churches take money from God, children didn't play any part in the politics
It's hard to know who to trust when the truth is irrelevant to the reverent
God, we really need your medicine
'Cause the painkillers never kill the pain, they just numb it all
(They just numb it all)
We wanna feel (We wanna feel)
[Verse 9]
I have a dream (But it's lost)
Dream, dream, dream
I have a dream
Dream, dream, dream
I have a dream
Dream, dream, dream
Oh, Lord, I have a dream, dream, dream (Dream)
I have a dream, dream, dream (Dream)
I have a dream
[Verse 10]
Uh, this is PSA for all of my dawgs who've been gay
And all of the others that work 9 to 5 and they grind
But they can't get a raise on they pay
I look to the day when chemicals not in our food
And judges, they judge by the truth
And malice is not in they rules
The police and can stop, 'cause really there's nothin' to do (Nothin' to do)
[Verse 11]
I keep on talkin' equality 'cause I see families dyin' (Dyin')
I don't want more than we're supposed to have (Supposed to have)
I just want all of us thrivin' (Thrivin')
I really prayin' the prayer that God said in the New Testament
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on Earth like in heaven
This is my dream
[Verse 12]
They can hold us down, pray for our fall
When all is lost, dream on
Dream on, dream on
When all is lost, dream on
They can hold us down, pray for our fall
When all is lost, dream on
Dream on, dream on
When all is lost, dream on
