Following Dreams

Lifestyle is what you make Not what they have told you A lifestyle within their wake You follow what they do A lifestyle of soul retort The dreams of their empathy Lifestyle of what you bought The mind is the enemy Afraid now of what you think Ignore it like they do Pray now that there’s a link Pray now you’re normal Ash and dreams will cover all There’s no way you’ll die now This very second you could fall But you’re too caught in your lies Follow all the gatherings Safety now in numbers You’ve no clue of the hate you bring You’re too lost and bitter It seems their dreams had tricked your mind You’re ageing and you’re wasted As long as you believe you stood their line As long as there’s some life you tasted God came He showed me why It seems that he is in me I know now I must please him White came Am I in a dream? Turns out that I’m in limbo It’s a test of what I make it Hate rules and takes our souls But I know I must grow stronger If I resist and see my goal This hate will rule no longer Within my mind I see the key My dream is what I make it I’ll make it turn so I can see A world where dreams are happy
