Dream on

Dream on
|
|
Stop saying the game is sold and not be told
|
Try to help the child that's only 4 years old
|
Why, why would you sit back and relax
|
And watch them kids fall off the tracks?
|
|
How, how can we sit on the sideline
|
And watch it go down
|
You, you need to make someone feel really proud
|
Rhythm is the key, can't you see?
|
Just don't do it for publicity
|
|
I, I was the boy in the little picture
|
Always asking questions
|
But never getting really good answers
|
So I screamed out loud and said
|
Please give 'em the answers
|
Give 'em the answers, they need the answers
|
|
Some people ask me how is life for me
|
Growing up in a dark pretty city
|
It was scary but life was good
|
See in my neighborhood
|
In my neighborhood, in my neighborhood
|
|
In my neighborhood
|
|
It's all coming back to me now
|
See, when I was growing up
|
There was a lot of people raising me
|
I didn't know at the time
|
But I listened to everything I heard
|
|
Every man, every woman
|
Every teacher, every preacher
|
Yes, I listened too
|
And you gotta do the same things
|
Oh yes, you do
|
|
March to the drums, look all around you
|
Help somebody find their way
|
We gotta show 'em the way
|
Do it today, show 'em the way
|
|
Show 'em the way
|
Don't let 'em find out the hard way
|
Show them the way
|
Show them the way
|
