When they know they got bricks in the street
At the country club, fixing to eat
I can see 'em now
I wish we'd get this shit figured out
And actin' all nigga'd out
On the block with the nine cocked
I wish we wasn't so obsessed with death
Tell me is it 'cause we blessed with less?
I don't know really
I wish the world was safer, I'm scared to travel abroad
That's why I travel with the Lord (Yeah)
I know you wanna call me insane
I'm a dreamer
will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream...
We are the dreamers of dreams
If there's life after death, is Heaven this cold?
I wish I could wipe the tears of all the crying mothers
Wish New York niggas didn't start flying colors
We need changes for teenagers as they go through phases
More than just a concrete jungle, a world of green acres
I wish I'd been more diligent
Smart cats rhyme militant, the rest rhyme ignorant
I wish the world didn't give us funny looks (Uh-huh)
Think we all just dummies and crooks
Athletes and entertainers singing hooks
We need more black babies that's into books (Read on)
I wish God could take away the pain
I know you want to call me insane
I'm a dreamer
We are the dreamers of dreams
I wish I didn't get searched when I come through customs
Wish the poor didn't have to take welfare
Wish America had universal healthcare
'Cause there ain't no help here (Nah), in a country where we don't fight fair
The American Dream becomes a nightmare
It's all hype here, and on this track my soul I might bare
I wish Bush just get out of office (Get out!)
Before he start World War Three and try to off us
It won't cost them, but it'll cost us
And right now, believe me, you lost us
