In us all in our hearts, in the ticking spot that starts
From the times we laughed at farts
And thought mud was a way to make art
lies the kid who rested their head, dreams forever in the head
with friends that shared a time
that no one could out rhyme
age beholds us, and now time grabs hold of us
grow up is whispered then shouted into us
our dreams are picked clean till money is the dream
you become blank just fuel for the machine
lies become truth,
anything is possible becomes don't be a fool
just let this world use you like a tool
the kid in us balls and cries
some may say their kid has died,
as your heart becomes empty of dreams when you could fly
then you grow old have kids of your own
see that joy and hope that you have "outgrown"
so why let it die?
This world wants us all on our knees to never dream of things
it screams it out the days about, for you to work until yoir back gives out
yet it tells you not to dream
don't you wonder what it means?
a dreamer can do anything to anyone at anytime
change the world on the quickest of lines
so don't let the kid die it's not to late for us all to fly
to find a home up in the sky and smile away as our dreams go by
and turn to truths right In this sky.
I always tell my daughter the
I always tell my daughter the key to real maturity is knowing when its okay to be immature ;) dream on friend
