Shonlock - I Have a Dream lyrics

[Hook: Manfest] I have a dream For every neglected child & teen I have a dream That I could do almost anything I have a dream To spread truth love & harmony I have a dream Where I could change the world without it changing me [Verse 1: Manafest] I had a dream I was flying so high I could see and hear the nations crying out to the sky I had a dream I could save them No ultimatums Bring them to a haven where the earths not shaking Dreaming of a day where the worlds not hating Dreaming is believing, I'm seeing salvation New generation, stop confrontation I can see it now were all one in the same To no more poverty New technology Healing our economy Someday it's got to be Where we can all stand And march together Sing a song of freedom Let it dominate forever [Hook: Manfest] I have a dream For every neglected child & teen I have a dream That I could do almost anything I have a dream To spread truth love & harmony I have a dream Where I could change the world without it changing me [Verse 2: Shonlock] Pardon my pa**ion an plea How do I say politely? We lived this nightmare long enough I'm trying to see Martin's dream I had a talk with a teen timid but told me some things And it made me think about myself and how we perceive the scene He said my mommas a fend, my daddy's queen Ain't never had a man in my life, left when I was 16 The streets is all that I've seen Get up get the cream If you get popped in the pursuit just chalk it up as routine I'm thinking what do you mean? Lil homie what do you mean? More then that poverty mentality no scholarly dreams I'm holding hope for some things You keep the rubies and rings My j**elry is the community how thick is the chain I dropped my heart and picked my life up at the foot of the King Listen close you can hear Martin sing [Hook: Manfest] I have a dream For every neglected child & teen I have a dream That I could do almost anything I have a dream To spread truth love & harmony I have a dream Where I could change the world without it changing me [Verse 3: Tedashii] My dream like Dr. King's is something rarely seen Still holding on for the day that we let freedom ring In between, what's real and what we really need They persecute my pain and others tell me let it be Man please I tried to move past it They see my kindness but mistake it like I'm pa**ive Pleading with the main in the mirror, Michael Jackson To them this freedom talk sounds funny like a accent Yes, the cop said that this is protocol America this system needs an overhaul In this system I'm the underdog but, I refuse to loose They tell me that's it's fine man it's really you They in the matrix, that's why kids taking Blue pills Truth is You can't escape it [Hook: Manfest] I have a dream For every neglected child & teen I have a dream That I could do almost anything I have a dream To spread truth love & harmony I have a dream Where I could change the world without it changing me (2x)
