Life is a Dream Lyrics

[HOOK]
Life is but a dream I hope I wake up tomorrow x3
Praying to the Lord to take me away from this sorrow

BKGD: Where do we go
[VERSE]
Last summer up in VA, I had this MDMA
She said she had a boyfriend who’s coming down the freeway
I said is that too quick girl? She said lets skip the foreplay
Talked about last semester, I said college it bores me
That’s when I had this feeling, that life is just some circles

When I tried my hardest they called this nigga Erkel
Why I work so hard for? Stay moving like it’s parkour
TJay get an ice pack you’re bruising up those bars boy
Nothing less but far more but still this shit be hardcore
People tell me down boy they see my race like Al Gore
You see that double meaning that’s what I need my crown for
They try to keep me down for my skill and for my talent

Knocking me off balance, but I haven’t looked around since
My grandpa left me lonely and dealing with this pressure
Instead I see a challenge and I take it like my pleasure
[HOOK]
[VERSE]
It was just a dream to be on the television
If you knew my dreams you’d see I have hella visions
Lately though my angel been taking an intermission

I hope I understand and focus my own ambition
I can’t tell you when but something is about to happen
Cause Jesus knows my plan is much bigger than rapping

This cruise is finna take off, I got no time for ‘laxing
Push away distractions and put out words like captions
Ain’t no looking back since, can’t hear you like an accent
No I cut no slack bitch, over your head like back flips
Holding like a tight grip and never letting go
Even when I feel weak I never let It show
Some people try to hold on and never let me grow
And I have done some things some people will never know
So I’m praying to the father to open the doors before
To show the whole world that they can never ignore me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • 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 [?]
