Dream Street

[Verse 1]
Dreaming long hours while I'm awake
Tryna pick which path maybe I should take
Grew up round people saying I won't make it
But you never know
Had a rough patch, no other way to explain it
But here it goes
Homeless in the streets, but before that
Lost my damn car, but before that
Could only see my son through a FaceTime call
He a thousand miles away and it's all bad
It's all bad
Yeah it's all bad
I wonder how I got on such a lost track
Sidewalks keep me safe in the space of night
Gotta fake that I'm alright
But I don't know for sure
Staring up at the stars sitting here wishing I could be that
I could be that
Maybe one day
One day when the time is right
One day when maybe I can fight
One day when the price is right
Brightest thoughts on the darkest nights
Until they fade away
Once a colorful dream now it's shades of grey
Dunno what to say about it
But I ain't gonna complain about it
And although I ain't a Christian
Some nights I really broke down and prayed about it
Damn
Can this situation, end
Don't know what's in store for me
I need love, can you share a little more with me
And promise you would go to war for me
Even lie to court for me
I ain't tryna be saved but would you pray to lord for me
Don't judge by exterior
See past that, and maybe look into my core for me

[Hook]
This dream street is all I'm hoping for
This dream street is sure to open doors
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
I'll make it
(Keep walking)

[Verse 2]
God damn, I made it
God damn, I prayed it
Spent a lot of long nights
Thinking bout my sons eyes
Thinking bout the sunrise
Thinking I don't wanna cry
Nah, I don't wanna cry
I hope my faith don't die
Though I know sometimes I might've shed tears
But I know one day I'll have the best of years
Break from my fears
Ain't it funny how I ain't afraid to die
But I'm afraid to have my son see me cry
I'm afraid for him to see these lies
All I really want is him to see me fight
Fight for my dreams and goals
Though I do suppose
If he see me hit rock bottom
Then maybe when he's older
And we living in a big house
Got a few cars
He can understand how I got em
The way I faced every problem
Never let them beat down cause I solved em
Never let them beat down cause I solved em
Giving life lessons and shit
I just really wanna be the best at this shit
I'm talking bout fatherhood
I hope my seeds get watered good
I really hope they see, a lot of good
Block out the the bad
Fight like they dad
Stay on the right path
Believing that vividly they could be
Any fucking thing that they could dream
Of
I hope he get the girl he like
I hope she treat him like my wife
I hope that on his darkest nights
He thinks of me and still lives to fight

[Hook]
This dream street is all I'm hoping for
This dream street is sure to open doors
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
I'll make it
(Keep walking)
