DREAMIN'

Everyone starts with the sweetest dreams Living long life living beautiful scenes Make a million dollars wearing gold and jewels Drive a big black benz or a carribean cruise Or maybe you dream that you just can't lose Or playin blues is the path that you choose Or perhaps you dreams of going back to nature's plan And just live off the land and be a natural man Or of a beautiful girl who's holding your hand Lovin the one you're with, with her beautiful tan Like you're holding the spliff that laying in your hand Or you dream of playing bands from Electric Lady Land Riffs just like Jimi Hendrix Are you feeling the feeling that I'm feeling Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling Are you feeling the feeling that I'm feeling Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling “Stop daydreaming!” That's what my teachers used to say While they kick a bunch of crap that I forgot anyway Education's important to make a man complete But everything I learned in school I learned again on the street Now my time is booked cause I've got the look And when I walk on my path you know I can't be shook Stay alert in this day you have to go for yours The force conspires to help brothers That help others open doors Wars and battles, rage round us everyday While the real troops keep our heads up while we play This game of chance that they busy calling life Can be quite a disappointing ride You can't blame the youth and you can't blame god Now who gonna blame when the dogs in the yard Are you feeling the feeling that I'm feeling Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling Are you feeling the feeling that I'm feeling Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling Wisdom asks “Are you ready for this?” Experience says “the kid can't miss” Professional advice got you thinking twice Don't roll the dice if you can't pay the price The omen says “walk towards the light The first impulse is free and it's always right” Doubt suggest “what you think you can achieve? You're just a philly kid from south 2 street” Rappin blues and playing guitar Now I'm chillin sky's the limit I'm a rock and roll star Making funky music hit records are exploding The free wind is blowing Higher than the liars melting in the fire How high can you ride? The greatest victory is ours When we believe in legends getting busy like the man They call “School's in session” addressing all you people Like I know who you are 'Cause streets are universal and the world is wide But no matter what you're running from you just can't hide If you seek the truth, the truest kid you'll find So trace your tracks a fact's a fact Three aces one king and a one eyed jack You ain't going no where until its time to leave Your mind's just a little story that I'm starting to read Are you feeling the feeling that I'm feeling Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling Are you feeling the feeling that I'm feeling Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
