Planet VI - The American Dream lyrics

[Intro] Now you can let them dreamk**ers k** your dreams Or use your arrogance as a steam to power your dreams Power your dreams Use your arrogance as a steam To power your dreams Now you can let them dreamk**ers k** your dreams Or use your arrogance as a steam to power your dreams Power your dreams Power your dreams [Verse 1: Anything Ill] Yea nah mean Yea. Before the age of eleven He knew he was destined for something great when he was seven Came from the slums but still ain't nobody could tell him That he wouldn't make it cause that wasn't even a question Pops worked hard. Mama prayed for them better days Where life gets sweet as his grandmamas lemonade So everyday of the week He's constantly trying to pave His road to success cause he knows that he's on his way Yeah. Too determined to get it so he ain't settle Ambitions of a kid tryna make it up out the ghetto A young martin luther with dreams of being a hero So everybody above him ain't even up on his level Most of his homies either dead or they serving time A few of them made it out But the rest of them selling dimes On the corner Where he knows its just a matter of time Before that happens to him So hell die trying [Chorus: Musiq SoulChild] When your so far down You can only go up Don't you dare stop now Don't you dare give up When your time to shine comes You can change your stars So keep every dream you have Trust me you can live them all All I know Can get this out of my mind That's why am always on my grind Nobody knows when its their time So I can't stop Cause am a dream chaser Til am dead and gone Am always gonna hold on Can't tell me if am right or wrong So I won't stop cause I'm a dreamchaser [Verse 2: Anything Ill] A single mother of two But still a firm believer In the fact that its never too late to become a dreamer A little too pretty to be a high school teacher Play piano plus she can sing her a** off like alicia All the students encouraging her to take a leap of. Faith She hesitates cause her daughter and son needs her Little do she know her kids are her biggest cheerleaders Same kids who she told anything that you wannabe is possible So now she considers taking a shot She hops on a plane to cali auditioning for a spot To possibly be a backround singer for Jill Scott Her students already know that she headed straight to the top She couldn't stop crying cause what happened was something epic She ended up landing a record deal over at epic So Keep dreaming That is the only lesson Just don't forget it Yes sir [Bridge: Musiq Soulchild] So dream on Dreamers Life is what you make it Dream on Dreamers Life is what you make it All I know And all I see Are all my dreams That's all I need Dream on dreamers Life is what you make it [Chorus] When your so far down You can only go up Don't you dare stop now Don't you dare give up When your time to shine comes You can change your stars So keep every dream you have Trust me you can live them all All I know Can get this out of my mind That's why am always on my grind Nobody knows when its their time So I can't stop Cause am a dream chaser Til am dead and gone Am always gonna hold on Can't tell me if am right or wrong So I won't stop cause I'm a dreamchaser Aww yeaaa I'm a dreamchaser Aww yeaa yeaa [Verse 3: Musiq SoulChild] Look anything you want in this life You can get it Whatever you put in your mind so don't forget it And all the dreams you had They will come to past (yea yea) If you want it all cause I believe in you Now all you gotta do Is believe in yourself And I promise in no time You will start to see yourself Living out your dreams So don't give up Don't stop now What you waiting for Why not now Don't let no one Stop you now You only live once The time is now Daadaa woooohh-oohhh Yeaaahhhhhh Daadaa woooohh-oohhh Yeaaahhhhhh Wooooohhhhh-ohhhhh
