big deal - one dream lyrics

intro (martin luther king):
so even though we face the difficulties
of today and tomorrow
i still have a dream…

verse 1:
we got the whole music scene sleeping on us/
moms weeping on us, cus we skip cl-ss, spit raps
deaf ears to the teacher speaking nonsense/
dads feel we’ll end been nothing, so i’m just been honest/
i don’t wanna be your neighbors son/
i know u tryna save your son but what u tryna save him from?
his dreams, his idols, i know u hate his favorite song/
but how u gonna suppress the art form he was raised upon/
so u place upon him bonds, make him do what you want & afraid at home/
till he sneaks out, gets in the wrong company
plays a song, talk & chill, blaze a bong/
now his grades is gone bonkers/
& everybody looking at you like u raised him wrong/
maybe, u recall when he was just a baby/
never thought generation gap be this crazy/
but i got a dream..

chorus:
[i know you tryna live your dreams
yeah, i can feel your pain
i know it gets hard but please don’t give up]-2

verse 2:
dad, i’m just working on my sk!ll and/
i ain’t k!lling, i ain’t into drug dealing/
so, why do you always see me as a villain/
and treat so different from the other children/
see i just love to play/
football and there ain’t no other way/
to put it, it’s the truth like you wanted to be a doctor but you couldn’t/
at least i wanna be something that i’m good at/
so, respect that or hear my neck crack/
from the burden of your dreams, might twist my head back/
and be dead that’s all
i don’t know if it matters/
footballers are the same for you as rappers, right?
ironic, i got a friend who raps/
and he just like me has been through cr-p/
you know the usual, cus his dreams musical
but it’ll be “kicks” and “snares” and then you’ll “clap”/
cus we win…

chorus:
[i know you tryna live your dreams
yeah, i can feel your pain
i know it gets hard but please don’t give up]-2

verse 3:
mom, i’ve been a poser all my life/
i love the cameras and the photos and the lights/
some boys like i’m p.chopra look alike/
ha, silly right? but i know that this is right/
i mean, i wanna be a model/
and that don’t mean i’ll be in the club with beer bottles/ nope
trust me i won’t sleep around/
you should check the news, things are strict and different now/
i’ll be in different town but i’ll make you proud/
take you out to oberoi’s, oh i’m so overjoyed/
at the prospect of a perfect career choice/
mom, do you even hear my voice?
don’t block me out
i know i failed three times/
but don’t look at me every time and hit rewind/
i thought we agreed to leave it behind/
can you please consider my dreams in the meantime?
one dream..

chorus:
[i know you tryna live your dreams
yeah, i can feel your pain
i know it gets hard but please don’t give up]-2

bridge:
[live your dreams, heal your pain
don’t give up]-2

outro (j.cole):
you know it’s never too late to accomplish what you set out to accomplish
to follow your dreams
