Common, will.i.am - A Dream lyrics

(I have a dream) I got a dream
(That one day) We gonna work it out
(That one day) We gonna work it out
(That one day) We gonna work it out

(I have a dream) I got a dream
(That one day) That one day
(That one day) I'm a look deep within myself
I gotta find a way (I have a dream)

My dream is to be free my dream is to be
My dream is to be my dream is to be free

In search of brighter days
I ride through the maze of the madness
Struggle is my address
Where pain and crack lives
Gunshots coming from sounds of blackness
Given this game with no time to practice
Born on the black list
Told I'm below average
A life with no cabbage
That's no money if you from where I'm from
Funny, I just want some of your sun
Dark clouds seem to follow me
Alcohol that my pops swallowed bottled me
No apology
I walk with a boulder on my shoulder
It's a cold war, I'm a colder soldier
Hold the same fight that made
Martin Luther the King
I ain't using it for the right thing
In between lean and the fiends
Hustle and the schemes
I put together pieces of a dream
I still have one

The world see me lookin' in the mirror
Images of me, gettin' much clearer
Dear self
I wrote a letter just to better my soul
If I don't express it, then forever I hold
Inside, I'm from the side where
We out of control
Rap music in the hood play the fatherly role
My story like yours, yo it gotta be told
Tryna make it from a gangsta
To a godlier role
Where it scrolls and stow slaves
And Jewish people in cold cage
Hate has no color or age
Flip the page, now my race became freedom
Write dreams in the dark
They far but I can see 'em
I believe in heaven more than hell
Lessons more than jail in the ghetto
Let love prevail with a story to tell
My eyes see the glory, and well
The world waiting for me to
Yell "I Have a Dream"
