Joel Baker - A Drug Called Dreaming lyrics

"Even if you've got money yeah
You're in trouble fam"

I’m from this place called Notts
That everyone outside knows for
Knifes and Glocks no one dreamed too much at
School don’t be silly man
I was just dreaming of Christina Milian
Like that’s all that we did
Yeah I was in bands i guess
There was a little scene
But nobody ever thought they’d make it
Remember this before Jake Bugg
Or Saint Raymond
No expectations we were just living now
…and no snap chat stories to tell
Us we were missing out
We were just fine, doing great
Cool with anything that came our way


I can’t get enough love
I tried i just can’t give it up love
I can’t put it down now
I tried I just can’t go without now
I can't get enough

Then I grew up and moved down to London
Where everyone thinks that they’re
Something or someone
…And that was all new to me
But these towers and late night tubes
Became everything that’s true to me
And I met Jojo & TJ
And i’d be around them on
Weekends and week days
And they were dreaming something so strong
So I asked if they’d put me on
And they did put me on …They did put me on

Now I’m on stages playing Reading & Leeds
Caught like a kite with my head in the trees
And there’s no going back now
Normal life is just a
Whisper in the background
I used to want to settle down
Now I wanna get about
Dreams of my own I think need to let em out


I met this drug called dreaming
And ever since we met i’ve
Been addicted to scheming
I work too much I work too hard
I work through lunch I go too far
I just wanna break through
These similar ceilings now i’m hooked I need
More than familiar feelings
I don’t know what to do
I’m not even happy if they come true
You see I’m over my head
Empty bottles round bed
Oh I think I need help
This is worse than love cus
