lyrics

[Verse I]

What is a life worth living, he asks?
What's the price of dreams in this world run by cash?
Is mediocrity hand-to-hand with contentment?
Are we only alive if we shine through the heavens?
He's burnt-out so he's inclined to think this way
The elitism sinks further into his brain
Living conditions make it difficult to escape
The jagged fangs of his self-hate
Then he remembers, a dream that he had shelved ages ago
That maybe he should give another shot but take it slow
Is it a ray of hope or just a another way to cope?
He doesn't care, his once lost flames were stoked
Who could have ever thought that you could turn a new page from an old book
And reclaim the will to live this world took
Now that he's got his inner demons at bay
He takes his first jump back to the fray


[Hook]

'Cause when your heart is crying out loud for change
You've got no other choice but to obey
The passion overflowing inside your veins
No matter what lengths you have to chase
It goes beyond the...
Money, fame, power and pride
The urge to burn alight 'till the embers turn white
When only ashes remain, the lives you touched will sing your song
And then inherit your will, the dream goes on


[Verse II]

Even though we live in fearful times
It was his way of telling fate to read between the lines
Never again gonna crumble to his knees
Unfazed by the hunger and fatigue, because
For the very first time in this life
He doesn't feel like a nuisance
Seeing past the road between winning and losing
He was a rogue in the divide between diamonds and roughs
Blurred the lines, pulverized the whole framework to dust
He lived only for exhilaration
Treating every battle as his greatest creation
He wasn't even thinking of dreaming, he just did
Only madness could push someone so off the grid
Yet somehow, the world felt connected to him
They admired his pursuit that was untainted by sins
Unrelenting though he wasn't the best by any means
So this is what it truly means to dream


[Hook]


[Verse III]

Through the rise and fall, he never missed a step
Even if it meant criminal neglect upon his health
Like he truly wished to burn to ash
He kept playing with the fires that his works had cast
There was no better elation than the euphoric sensation
Of making whole-hearted creations out of self-elevation
And a sense of indignation towards the petty racing
May he be an inspiration for this generation, ugh
For the aspirants whose confidence is shaken up
By the culture that only values the greatest, ugh
9 to 5ers, providers under stagnation, ugh
Everybody with a dream who'd like to chase it, ugh
Take the pain and break your chains
Forsake the fame and make true change
'Til the day only your deeds remain, and a new dreamer takes your place,
The dream goes on!

[Outro]

Yeah, this is to all my riders, providers
9 to 5ers and trife life survivors
Truth writers, freedom fighters and dream igniters
True friends and loved ones that's always there beside us

Dreamchasers, carving out a path of your own
Or bringing change for society as a whole
Earnestly, without selling your soul
Keep living your extraordinary ordinary lives
Yeah
