Day Dream Lyrics
Verse 1;
Rise & shine
once again on the grind every time
Every day it goes by, realize yo life
aint no different than mine, and so I try…
to walk a straight line, but it’s like I gotta struggle and strive
So I take it in stride, So I hope in my ride
I get my mind right, cause now I gotta fight
All the hours that it takes to get paid, Fight for a raise
So in the end I can pretend everything is OK
Such a beautiful day
But around my way; kids die, moms cry
Aint nobody surprised, but somebody sure died
So now my point of view changed from
What you see in your eyes
And for me it seems the… only times that I breath
Is when I do it on beat, life is hectic on streets
So now I smoke weed…
That’s the only time I can spit a rhyme about a bad life and still sing!
Chorus 1;
Daydream. I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours, on a beautiful day
Daydream. I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours, such a beautiful day
Verse 2;
Now next is a test of strength for all of those
Caught up in the system
Reform never came from a trip to a prison
Better yet we miss em
Like the homie Crime doing time up state
And can’t nobody say he was raised the wrong way
Just a victim of a circumstance, and so he took a chance
Three ended up shanked, and when he took the stand
The man gave him 3 counts all back to back
3 years later, homie’s out again
On parole with a smile cause he can be
With his baby and his wife again
It must’ve been … the time of his life
Cause one year later, one night…
One time caught him chilling with the wrong type
Now his little girl and lady gotta make the drive
Upstate
To daddy’s old home, it’s the same old song
But one day we can sing a new tone.
Chorus 2;
Daydream. I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours, on a beautiful day
Daydream. I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours, such a beautiful day
Verse 3;
So now look around, take a deep breath
Cause it aint just my town where I see death
Gotta be naïve to believe
What we doing in Iraq is really bout
Liberty, Democracy, and Freedom
Better yet, dumb.
If we really wanna fight communist,
Why’d we skip the other names on the list?
Cuba, Cambodia, El Salvador
If Big Brothers watching, why’d he leave his balls at the door?
You got a war on crime
Cause we’re stealing too much Hondas
What about the killings by militia in Rwanda
What about the kids, the women
Who pray one day we will offer some aid
But I guess, It’s easy to ignore the poor when they aint living next door
And even God’s birthplace has become a battle field
Where Christians, Jews, and Muslims getting killed
But we can sing once the prophecy is fulfilled
Chorus 3;
Daydream. I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours, on a beautiful day
Daydream. I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours, such a beautiful day
