lyrics

John Lennon and Dr. King
Shared a similar dream that bears a simple common theme
The brotherhood of man was meant to unify as one
It's not about the prophet or the crucified son
It's the feeling within that inspires you to be
The physical embodiment of positivity
Just to see a human being smile because you gave a compliment
To live at peace and to overcome the prominent
Issues you wish you could squash, we have to grow
If we never pay it forward then the kids will never know
I've come so far it's like I finally saw the light
As I knelt in that field on that dark spring night
I'm a dreamer, I see it. I'm not the only one
Captivated by the beauty of the moon and sun
It was Guru, Gandhi, Gandalf, and Yoda
The inner force within that just knows we're suppose ta
Take a stand even in the face of death
To sacrifice yourself, as the dreamer drew his final breath
He ascended into infinite the prophecy fulfilled
His spirit lived on despite the fact that he was killed
I challenge you to build on the pre-existing dreams
Of beautiful souls that existed because we as human beings
still love after we die
Just imagine, it's easy if you try

Morpheus: "Let me tell you why you are here. You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life. There's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there ... like a splinter in your mind"

I saw a film called A Bugs Life back when I was six
About this ant named Flik who could see through all the tricks
Of these evil grasshoppers using fear as a tool
To the rest of the colony Flik appeared as a fool
But it was cool, cuz Flik was a free thinking soul
He stood against adversity this ant played the role
Of a revolutionary figure trying to take it back
From the evil people fucking up the planet trying to jack
Your freedom and your peace and your food every season
Since we are the 99% there's no reason
For us to be afraid of them they need us to survive
It's no surprise that they try to divide
Everybody into categories, race and religion
Are nothing more than tools that they use people listen
This shit has gotta stop this is how the humans fall
It's time to take a stand and make a difference, it's your call
Will you be the change you want to see or die like a punk?
Quit perpetuating sin and quit faking the funk
And please, quit producing junk and pretending like it's music
If you think the point of life is cash then you're stupid
All we have to do is change the way that we think
It doesn't matter if you're man, woman, purple, or pink
Treat a stranger like your brother put your prejudice aside
It's for you to decide, at least this kid can say he tried

Hopper: "Ideas are very dangerous things. You are mindless, soil shoving losers, put on this earth to serve us."

Flik: "You're wrong. -- Mr. President --, Ants don't serve grasshoppers, it's you who need us"

Fuck yeah Flik

Party to another song, this is for the thinkers
Present day philosophers my man I'm talking dreamers
People that would rather live their life in peace
People searching for the truth I think I'll fight the beast
Because I'm sick of being lied to, I just want to live
And make music, I want to be a kid
For the rest of my days, kicking back with misses stunning
Willard told me to walk so now I'm running
To the park with my boom-box what did you expect?
Oh you get Facebook likes? I get respect
From the battles I participate in plus the songs I write well
I never keep my mouth shut, so I just might tell
A seniorita that she shouldn't get naked
For anybody undeserving cuz sex is sacred
When's the last time you heard somebody say that?
It's a shame that these people never play that
Face the facts, all they want is hits
So that every single morning they get pancakes with grits
While the kids like me can't even get biscuits
Because we tried to write rhymes that include lyrics
I'm not telling you to live your life in any type of way
I'm just speaking my beliefs and while I'm here, I'd like to say
Thank you for every single dreamer in existence
If you feel the way I feel be part of the resistance
And take it back this is for real it isn't play
Strive to be a good person every single day
Pay it forward could be real if you let it manifest
It's hard to change the world but at least we tried our best
