Abstract, Drama B - Dreamin’ lyrics

Wishin' that the world was a better place
Where everybody's treated equal
Not about the race
Good pay and jobs, fathers wanna stick around
Mothers not left alone to raise
The kids all alone
A place where enemies turn to friends
Beginnings, no ends laughin', jokin'
Sunrise, sunsets
Friends you could call the best
No homelessness, they got a place to stay

I had a dream last night and it felt so real
My heart was breathin' once again, I was up
But still pinch me
Am I dreamin'? Is this
Really what I'm seein'?
Woke up, got me still waitin' for that call
I had a dream last night and it felt so real
My heart was breathin' once again, I was up
But still pinch me
Am I dreamin'? Is this
Really what I'm seein'?
Woke up, got me still waitin' for that call

Got me dreamin', got me dreamin'
Dreamin', dreamin'
Got me dreamin', got me dreamin'
Dreamin', dreamin'

Dreamt I took a drift back to 1968
April 4th, shots fired, almost took out MLK
Shots grazed him
But we all rejoiced to know
The dream was safe so we continued fighting
Watched the world become a better place
I hit 1980, drivin' through NY in a Mercades
Hopped out, tackled Chapman
Just to make sure Lennon got home safely
John must have thought I was crazy
Didn't phase me, not a bit
'Cause in the future of that dream
Peace and love is all there is
Then I woke up to chaos on the news
Learn what I have dreamt
Can not be farther from the truth
Realizing both of them had so much left to do
So, how we change it? What's the move?
There's something that we gotta do
It's a big step
I don't think one man can fit the shoes
We're not beaten, only bruised
We can change it if we chose
We just gotta realize that that change
Starts with us and you

Got me dreamin', got me dreamin'
Dreamin', dreamin'
Got me dreamin', got me dreamin'
Dreamin', dreamin'
Got me dreamin', got me dreamin'
Dreamin', dreamin'
Got me dreamin', got me dreamin'
Dreamin', dreamin'
