Dreams & Shadows Lyrics

Oh you thought it was over, huh?

Chorus:
Your ends justify their means But i just defied their means
Do you you know what that means
I'm Heath Ledger tryna be better
No matter what reach for ya dreams never let em sweat ya

Verse 1:
This is my life, this is my scene
It's my nightmare as well as my dream
Facing fears conquering demons
Looking in the mirror for obvious reasons
Am I, good enough do I have what it takes
Will they, feel my stuff or is failure my fate
Rappers don't make it in Australia mate
Well this is the mind state i try to escape
But it's so difficult every move is pivotal
Day by day I improve searching for that miracle

My people support me, my people adore me
I ain't tryna sellout the records will do it for me
I don't spit american and i don't spit ocka
I let myself by myself so myself can prosper
Now who's hotter.(You tell me)

Chorus:
Verse 2:

This my first try so why I second guess
Second so many times seconds away from success
Applying second natures scent
So i can wake up, smell the roses that they laid on the bed//
Broke but I'm not a joke
Smoke i ain't even toke
40 years ago my parents stepped off that boat
Irony she wrote why am i tryna float
They came here with next to nothing but shoes, cigarettes and coats

Dream Apnea yo I'm feeling like i choked
Have you ever had the right them words stuck in your throat
Personal note Fuck being a sheep
I ain't a part of your machine society is weak
A variety entirely comprised of repeat
You have to play by their rules where they get to silently cheat
Move mountains with my speech I'm climbing to my peak
I've sacrificed a normal life for this life on beats
Rights have been breached sights have been bleached
What goods a degree in bullshit compared to science of the street
Revise what they teach nullify unique
You lost for words tongue tied I'm just finding my feet
I wonder through the thunder will the sunshine bleed
Or will the sunrise unblind these shadows of grief
My purpose in life is to speak
Their purpose is to have you dying before you breath debriefed

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
