about

“Dreams” personifies the often unbelievable goals we have. Writing as if one’s dream is a very real and impatient person, the song focuses on the back-and-forth nature of deciding to trust your vision. Bright production and a playful volley of rhymes bring joy to acknowledging the truth of how hard it is to bet on oneself; light, airy singing offers exuberance throughout. This track serves to gently remind listeners that their “dream[s] can’t wait outside” for them to stop doubting themselves.

lyrics

[V1]

dream say let me in
dream cant wait outside

Go head open up
Spent last year as an opener
Headline coming I’m closing em
Dreams stay big as the sky outside
So I hope them clouds gon show me some
So I hope them clouds don’t

Rain on all my favorite days
Take this kinda of change away
Every night I hope and pray
Something boutta rearrange
Enter in a different phase
Dreams can look a different way
But listen when they come and say

[HOOK]

dream say let me in
dream cant wait outside
she knock on that door
get your feelings right
turn that doubt to gold
put your pride aside
dream cant wait outside

cause push done come to shove
wish done came to life
you been praying for more
keep your goal in sight
gone and open up
you know it’s your right

dream cant wait outside

[V2]

go ahead shut it down
i ain never let a nigga do the run around
i keep my head on a swivel like a gun around
uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
yeah i'm from around the way!
we was duck them shots & the dirty needles
all a nigga wanted was a brighter day
when my prayers were neglected thought god was evil
then my irises turned to a shade of gray
and i always been different from a lot of people
ima say what these niggas afraid to say, hey

can't wait for the process, my niggas killin & stealin in the projects, hey
i'm the strong of the strongest but i still be dreamin like the hook of the song says, hey

[HOOK]

dream say let me in
dream cant wait outside
she knock on that door
get your feelings right
turn that doubt to gold
put your pride aside
dream cant wait outside

cause push done come to shove
wish done came to life
you been praying for more
keep your goal in sight
gone and open up
you know it’s your right

dream cant wait outside

[OUTRO]

I need a refresh
I need a taste of the sweetest pieces
I need a reason
MEANING I NEED TO KNOW WHAT IM LEAVING
JESUS I WAS ONLY BEING FACITIOUS
I was never thinking bout leaving
I was only thinking myself and I and me I was thinking we could 3v3 ya
I WAS THINKING WE COULD TIGHTEN UP
THERE AINT NO GARAUNTEES
I WONT TRY MY LUCK
CAUSE I KNEW ABOUT THE RISK WHEN I WAS SIGNING UP SIGNING UP
Think it’s time that I righten up
Think it’s time them stars start lining up
But until I’m there I’m
climbing up
Climbing up
Til I’m high enough
