[Intro: Martin Luther King, Jr.]
I have a dream
That one day
This nation will rise up
And live out the true meaning of its creed
We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal. [applause]
[Hook: Breana Marin]
I got dreams, got dreams, got dreams I'm striving' for
So I'm gonna live higher
I'm gonna live higher
I got dreams, got dreams, got dreams, I'm string for
So I'm gonna live higher
I'm gonna live higher
[Verse 1: Paycheck]
What's a dream,
Without actions?
What is love
Without passion?
Actions turn dreams to visions
Martin had a dream
So Dre got a vision
And we both pushing for change
Tired of playing these games
Tired of feeling lame
I ain't rapping for fame
I ain't tryna make a name
Ever since a youngin I was spitting flames
See I speak the truth
And I respect the truth
And I live the truth
I'm not prideful
But I'm christ concious in the booth
People always tell me I'm never gonna make it
Now I'm on the path to greatness
And I'm done makin' sacrifices
I sacrificed my time
I sacrificed my life
But I will never sacrifice
A blood price
This lil' light of mine I'm gonn' let it shine
This is much deeper
Than the meaning read between the lines
[Hook: Breana Marin]
I got dreams, got dreams, got dreams I'm striving' for
So I'm gonna live higher
I'm gonna live higher
I got dreams, got dreams, got dreams, I'm string for
So I'm gonna live higher
I'm gonna live higher
[Verse 2: Paycheck]
I got a million dollar vision
With a billion dollar grind
A billion dollar scheme
With a trillion dollar rhyme
How longs it been since you paid attention?
Look around, the worlds so one dimension
Racism causes disputes with growing tensions -
If life was a school y’all should face suspension
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know what I’m doing
But I gotta keep growin
Because I know this is a movement
I know I got this dream
People sayin I won’t make it
Won’t stop til I’m outta steam
I have a chance I’ll take it
“You gotta rap on the trap beats”
If I spit on one I’d break it
And now that I am in the game
I’m seein artists shakin
They sayin Broken Mirrors trash
Thinkin that I don’t agree
Bars are quick like I’m the Flash
All these rappers better flee
Catch me on the starting line
Flexin number 70
Rap trio on a grind
Dom, Ewan, then there’s me
[Outro: Martin Luther King Jr.]
I have a dream that one day
On the red hills of Georgia
The sons of former slaves
And the sons of former slave owners
Will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood
I have a dream [applause] that one day even the state of Mississippi
A state sweltering with the heat of injustice
Sweltering with the heat of oppression
Will be transformed
Into an oasis of freedom and justice
I have a dream. [applause]
