O'Neal - Dreamer lyrics

[Intro:] Uh, yeah Believe it or not What kept me alive Is my Dreams [Hook: x2] I'm a dreamer, but I ain't the only one Got problems but we love to have fun This is our world, from here to your hood We alive man, it's okay to feel good! [Verse 1: K'naan] I got a friend named Flow Who got a friend named Blow With a finger named Clap That'll leave you on the side like a Kangol hat He ain't have no choice he was born this way These streets pull your number like a phone display And you gotta be defensive with your life You gotta be like Bush and take pre-emptive strikes And "The boys from the hood are always hard" Let alone in Mogadishu it's a mastered art If you bring the world hoods to a seminar We from the only place worse than Kandahar Man that's kinda hard But we still like to party and Hardy-hard Something good happens we say "Mashallah" Something bad happens, "Que sera, sera" I close my eyes and all I can see, is you dancing with me [Hook x2] [Verse 2: K'naan] It's okay to feel good It's the truth! Ayyo, and check it out What would it take for a boy about my age To hear cheers in his head upon that stage? And the cheers they would drown out the tears from my brown eyes C'mon backstage You see the screams ain't the screams from gunshot screams In my dreams these screams are from hot teens And I'm barely thirteen and pack a dirty Ol' Russian firearm that shoots thirty Just then I hear the bus engine I'm transcendin' I'm crowd surfin' I can't see the time burnin' I'm not hurtin' With my mahogany pen "I'm on a world Tour, with Muhammed and them!" And we be overseas, and not in these streets Where my peeps stay alive, like the Beegees And the likes of Jay-Z would say my steez Say he handily brought, hip hop peace [Hook x2] Sometimes we just like to have fun, man we like to forget All the fighting, all the guns and the tires burnin [Verse 3: K'naan] Back on the verse Imagine crack wasn't birthed Imagine that Earth wasn't hurt Imagine no Homeland alerts Imagine no record locator So I wouldn't have to get a criminal waiver Imagine the piece wasn't in my briefs Instead peace could stretch across the seas So finally we could we could just rest in the East No Refugees And you, well you could dress in a book And I could read your body with less than a look I got a dream girl in my mind, that's the hook An intellectual, s**ual and still can cook And I feel good right now...I feel good right here You feel good right now? You feel good?? [Hook 2x] [K'Naan speaking to end] We not down and out...just because the times are hard Uh-uh...uh-uh...yeah...shout out to the strugglers In my country...the hardest place on Earth right now But still...I still know how to get down I still know how to vibe out Still know how to talk to a pretty girl Take it easy now...YEAH
