Dreamer - Atmosphere[00:00:00]
She gotta condition of the heart a heart condition[00:00:19]
So as a kid she had to adapt to smarter livin'[00:00:21]
Not much room to rebel because of health[00:00:23]
No drugs no booze just kiss and tell[00:00:26]
Well known on the scene jailbait queen[00:00:28]
Had the first baby barely eighteen[00:00:30]
Father of the child was after one thing[00:00:33]
When the daughter came the dad was unseen[00:00:35]
It don't matter he ain't got a job[00:00:38]
So she had to go to work[00:00:40]
And leave the baby with her mom[00:00:41]
Second shift 'til the neck is stiff[00:00:43]
But she worked it and built her own nest to live[00:00:44]
Soon after that baby's dadd/lazy bum with no cash[00:00:47]
He wanna come over and crash[00:00:49]
He wanna play his part[00:00:52]
So she let him move into that garden level apartment[00:00:54]
She knew better she did it anyways[00:00:57]
Explain better when you're tryin' to see some better days[00:00:58]
The sun's up catch those rays[00:01:01]
Butterflies now who's got chase [00:01:03]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:01:06]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:01:10]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:01:16]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:01:20]
Two years later two months pregnant[00:01:24]
Same daddy same broke a** situation[00:01:26]
This time the doc said her heart might break[00:01:29]
Praise god that the job got her health benefits straight[00:01:31]
She believes in the right to choice[00:01:33]
But she loves baby girl and wants a boy[00:01:35]
Makes more nowadays on the day shift[00:01:37]
Balance that with night classes[00:01:40]
Take some time and space and make it all fit[00:01:42]
The apartment they now live in is overcrowded[00:01:45]
Raised her voice and made her point[00:01:47]
Told that boy go get employed[00:01:49]
He put on his best shirt[00:01:53]
Said he wasn't comin back 'til he gets work[00:01:54]
She knew what that part meant[00:01:57]
So she swept every piece out that apartment[00:01:59]
Peace out keep out take the scenic route[00:02:01]
Rather only hafta feed three mouths[00:02:03]
She adapts to everything now[00:02:06]
And nobody asks what she dreams about[00:02:08]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:02:10]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:02:16]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:02:21]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:02:26]
Little girl was her first reason to breathe[00:02:30]
And her little man was the first man she believed in[00:02:32]
She gotta live right and do right by self[00:02:34]
She do for self she don't want your help[00:02:36]
Afraid of being alone[00:02:39]
But fear aint' enough to knock her off of that stone[00:02:40]
Gonna make that home a home[00:02:43]
With or without a man that she can call her own[00:02:45]
Big boss at work is anxious[00:02:48]
Continues to hand her the wrong advances[00:02:50]
She passes the test she knew the answers[00:02:52]
Quit the job to go take a chance with life[00:02:55]
This is life we all strain[00:02:57]
While we pray for dollars and we work for change[00:02:59]
It's all the same we all struggle[00:03:02]
Sometimes you gotta say f**k you[00:03:04]
When you smile and she doesn't return it[00:03:06]
Give her room and don't disturb it[00:03:08]
If it makes it hurt less to curse and fight[00:03:10]
Go ahead and hate the world girl you earned the right now[00:03:13]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:03:16]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:03:21]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:03:25]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:03:30]
But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope[00:03:35]
Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope[00:03:39]
