DREAMS (Outro)

[Intro: Alan Watts]
Let’s suppose that you were able every night to dream any dream you wanted to dream, and that you could, for example, have the power within one night to dream 75 years of time, or any length of time you wanted to have
And you would, naturally, as you began on this adventure of dreams, you would fulfill all your wishes. You would have every kind of pleasure you could conceive

[Verse 1: Young Prophet]
A dream is just a dream you got to have the vision
They saw my worth, it’s safe to say it’s not for penny pinching
They actin’ different but I’m not surprised
They sellin’ fantasies, no wonder they been tellin lies
And I despise
Any soul that’s on this Earth without a passion
How it feel to live a life with no reaction?
You follow suit and play routine instead of moving off compassion
No relaxing in this life of mine
My movements everlasting
How it feel to live a life wit’ no dreams?
Got me thinkin’ that this life is not at all what it seems
I played the game down to the strings
They told me “Tighten up”
Then got to maximizing bags, they talkin “Lighten up”
The Midas touch & Gift of Gab is what it seems I’m blessed wit’
And not to mention all these problems that I’m sittin, stressed wit
Time and devotion been invested
I ain’t get my credit
I guess a dream is still a dream, but you still gotta go and get it
Yea

[Speech: Alan Watts]
And would come out of that and you would say “Wow that was a close shave, wasn’t it?”. Then you would get more and more adventurous and you would make further- and further-out gambles what you would dream. And finally, you would dream where you are now. You would dream the dream of living the life that you are actually living today

That would be within the infinite multiplicity of choices you would have. Of playing that you weren't God, because the whole nature of the dogma, according to this idea, is to play that he is not

(Yea)

[Verse 2: Young Prophet]
Dreams fade
Then the dust settles
A tough pebble hit wit pressure
Is a diamond in the rough
Remember
Them things change, so do not settle
Just have that pedal to the metal and you go wherever God send you
(And now let’s have a surprise)
Yea

[Outro: Spoken Word]
If you gotta dream, show me
Reveal it to the world and own it
If you gotta passion, disown your inaction and make a habit of climbing the steep hill of your goals, or else dissatisfaction will echo in your soul
Go after your dreams fearlessly
You've got all the potential you need
Just find the why for the motivation you lack
Conjure the reasons why you've laid low and cut yourself slack
Well
You can't hide behind excuses no more
Because you're a dazzling star and you're too bright to hide behind confining bars
You think you're a nobody?
Too scared to show your true colors?
Don’t ever doubt yourself
You got a dream
Stop hiding it under your bed
And make it into your reality
Dont think life got magic
But it's full of meaning
Once you awaken from your brain dead anxiety
Because you worry too much of what people think of you
Your heart will come alive, beating with all the colors of the rainbow and the music you love will revive you
I speak from experience
Stop letting your fears hold you back
Because they’re just lies
No one is gonna believe in your dream as much as you do
Not until you accomplish what you dream of
I mean
When you get there then they'll believe you
What else have you got to live for
But your dream
It's your purpose
And your responsibility
To make your dream a reality
Until then will you to see
