The Dream

Verse1

I wake up

in the mornin' light

she's gone

not a trace in sight

good luck

see you around

it's not meant to be

I won't turn my life up side down

I have better things

to do

with my time

with my life

without you

 

Verse2

Anger and madness

haven't set in

it's kinda crazy

'cause relief is runnin' through my veins

it's not drivin' me insane

I hear a voice

tellin' me to relax

there's a better plan for me

from my Lord up above

 

Bridge

I can't stop lovin'

but I won't lay face down

with my hopes sky high

rocketin' into outter space

hopin' you'll be with me

believe me

if this ain't true love

you better leave

 

Chorus

I'm not dyin' for someone else

who don't love me

I won't rip my heart apart

I'm not the man I used to be

I wanna live

The Dream

until I die

it's the only thing that gets me high

I wanna live

The Dream

until there's nothin' left

no pride

only glory

to my God

who put me here on Earth

on stage with my guitar

singin' you this song

I wanna live 

The Dream

 

Verse3

I can't hold on

to what let me go

I'm not even gonna try

what's done is done

it's over

you left me behind

now it's just God and me

and I'm just fine

 

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

 

Verse4

I'm lettin' go and lettin' God take control

of me

I know He's gotta better plan for me

He saved my life

I owe Him everything

that's no lie He let me live my life

 

(solo)

 

Verse5

I'm not perfect in any way

I make mistakes all the time

I'm a simple sinner

who believes in God

I trust Him with my life

when the world I knew walked away

He was by my side

He didn't give up on me

I won't give up on Him

He is the better way of life

 

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

Haven't put music to it yet, but believe heavy electric sounding music is what ran through my mind. Thank you.
