[Verse 1:] I’m gonna make my way through this world someday I don’t care what nobody say American dream, political scheme I’m gonna find out for myself someday But I’m half-lit, I can’t dance for sh** But I see what I want, I go after it And my girl’s alright, treats me nice Sayin’ nothin’ but a woman puts out that light [Chorus:] I got a dream I’m gonna fight til I get it I got a dream I’m gonna fight til I get it right Til I get it right [Verse 2:] Oh well, my baby no doubt dreams further out Makin’ moves to get us someway someday Well my honey don’t trip, shoots from the hip Tell me everything gonna be OK [Chorus] [Verse 3:] Well, my mama so sad Daddy’s just mad ‘Cause I ain't gonna have the chance he had My success is anybody’s guess But like a fool, I’m bettin’ on happiness [Chorus x2]
