I'm a dreamer It's for the world world world world world Dream on We take, uh, we make, uh, paper And build skyscrapers Walking on water, building my faith up Niggas with no heart, I'm the pace maker Get the beat from No I, feel the pulse of the Chi Survival of the fit with hope in they eye Taking notes from the sky to fly above understanding They notes from the most high, so I gotta land them Career ain't random, make anthems, streets chant them Rock roles like a phantom Mad hoes like they throwing tantrums I tell them I need space like Richard Branson Dancing, with (?) and stars getting full at bars And then pass out like a pamphlet Never taking Grants for granted It's Common, I'm high above standard Fly nigga, keep my feet planted To rock the planet, I don't stop for panic Maybe I'm a hopeless hip-hop romantic I'm a dreamer It's for the world world world world world Dream on He introduced me, I stepped to the podium Said peace, gave thanks to the holy one Put my water up, thought about my daughter for a second The youth, the living resurrection Reflections of the sun glaring through the window Now the audience staring at my mental Feeling like the world, the world is at my fingers 'Bout to speak to an auditorium full of dreamers Kinda took me back to when I first had a dream To be like the king that sang Billie Jean Now it's gold records, and I'm on silver screens At the mountaintop, you still gotta dream To the dreamers If I dream you're here And you dream I'm there We'll be no where near You should just come here If I wake you up Only difference is You can live the dream Just believe in it
