[Verse 1: C.Sar]
Someone is calling me, telling me to wake up
I'm living life in a dream, everyday stuck
Thought I woke up but I found myself in bed again
The same dream is restarting in my head again
I false awaken to your real life
But you've never been awake so you don't know what real's like
'Cause you've never seen the dream from the other side
I feel like everything I've seen is an utter lie
A fabrication, I'm challenging the status quo
Avoid the pills that'll take you where the addicts go
A fantasy of the cash and the baddest hoes
Illusions of the mansions and lavish clothes
The world'll feed it to you, keep you in a dream state
Tell you it's the truth, even if it seems fake
They fed it to me and I slipped into this dream with you
I was content with a lie, building scenes with you
But a voice told me that I was dreaming
Does it mean that life doesn't have a meaning?
So what happens when the spinning top, stops spinning?
That means we're living out our dreams, not locked in it
I'm laying down tracks, waiting on a train
Into the lights, I'm escaping to the fame
I can't tell, am I awake or am I comatose?
I'm alive, I survived a f**ing overdose
[Hook: Darius Rey]
Life is just a dream, you know
Wake up before
Better wake up before you go
And if life is just a dream
Better wake before you leave
Better wake before you leave
[Verse 2: Darius Rey]
Eyes open, did my dreams leave
Or are they bleeding while I'm wide awake?
I've been lost in the carnage of my dream beast
And he's waiting on the edge in case I die today
I'm trying to keep him contained
Feeding on the drops of the sun through his cage
Pushing on it 'til my skeleton breaks
And everything I really am finally escapes
'Til then, chasing the same dreams
The same shapes through the fantasies in sheets
Cherry red lips that I trace when I sleep
Mirage on the platform fading when I reach
So now I'm asking where are you?
Astronaut of imagination
With no oxygen to save him, with my spacesuit blazing
Through the atmosphere, reaper there waiting
If life's a dream, I'll make it lucid
And I'll do it just to get to you
I'm in a dream so I'm making music
Hope the notes make their way to you
Sky vanilla and I'm Tom Cruising
Need Penelope Cruz for this view, so I choose
To leap off the skyscraper
I'll find you in my real life, not the fake one
[Hook]
[Verse 3: C.Sar]
I'm here to free you, trying to make you see through
Fantasies here, only 'cause you need to
And now you feel like Amy Lee on the balcony
Screaming that you've never been awake and don't know how to be
It's Evanescent, this heaven that I've incepted
Is starting to fade away once I made a way to address it
The dream vanished, a scene lasting a lifetime
Was almost trapped in it, but I happened to write rhymes
When I couldn't fathom the sadness, rapping in times I
Felt defeated, Victor made me believe in myself
And I see us leaders, hoping people succeed us
Get you out of this dream, I'ma try to lead you to freedom
[Darius Rey]
Same way that I'm leading Cesar, d**h a fine woman
Lord willing we about to leave her, biggest trick pulled
When she lied to us don't believe her, want to tell us we're living
The sky above us, the limit, the sky above us, a lid in
A coffin don't know we're still in, dead but still dreaming
A ghost dreaming and wishing, coming back to life in the music
Give me three minutes, or four or five, won't diminish my soul
Shuttle launch through horizons, the life I chose
Shuttle either bursts through the blue sky or explodes
Only living illusions 'til I'm lucid, in control
Life is just a dream, you know so
Going to wake up one way or another, choose a way to go
[Hook x2]
