[Intro (from “The Wire”)]

-What about the fence? -Fuck the fence.
-What about the dog? -Fuck the dog.
All that time I was resting yo, it got me thinking.
It got good to me, too.
-Copper house.
Gracious.
I gotta go, can you cash me out?
-If you ain't got dreams, Bubs, what the fuck you got?

[Verse 1: Silas]

Now let me tell you what I dream about
What I pray for, what I live for and what I’m all about
‘Cause if you ain’t got dreams it feel like you ain’t got shit
Without hope and without love, life feel like it ain’t worth shit
So I try to make sure that’ll never be the case
Even though the world outside can make you feel so afraid
You really care about my color or my creed?
Don’t even mention all the money and the greed
What’s so different about you and me?
Blood running through our veins man, it’s a fucking shame
Seems like we can never let it be
We should though
And every single day I really wish we would, yo
So I’ll never lose my faith
And when I look closer often find myself amazed
By the people out there and the ones close to me
So I sing this song and hope you’ll sing along with me

[Hook: Silas]

Maybe one day we gon wake up and we gon make up
Maybe one day we gon get it straight and we gon face off
With our biggest fears, get rid off all the tears
We’d much rather smile, let’s go the extra mile
Maybe I’m just a dreamer - I’d say I’m a believer
Maybe one day

[Verse 2 - B.g. Bene]

Now let me tell you what I scheme about
What I stay up for - I got to
Keep my head above the water
Cause in this life we lead,
we’d rather feel the need to oppress than digest
We try to make the pain go away, by hiding it inside
Tell ourselves some fucking lies
Then go to bed, wake up in sweat
Rise again, like ain’t shit changed
We want change, without change
I think I’ll put the pen to the side…
So wake me up when the world is sleeping
I think I try too hard, but I kind of lust in
Feel the blood rushing through my veins
Part of these growing pains, growing pains
But maybe one day, we’re on this island together
Telling love stories, never minding the matter
And all this fucking cheddar
I feel it melting away, ey
One day I’ma live to see another day

[Hook: Silas]

Maybe one day we gon wake up and we gon make up
Maybe one day we gon get it straight and we gon face off
With our biggest fears, get rid off all the tears
We’d much rather smile, let’s go the extra mile
Maybe I’m just a dreamer - I’d say I’m a believer
Maybe one day

[Verse 3: B.g. Bene & Silas]

Maybe one day, we can settle this mess
For what is love if you receive but give nothing back
Only pilling up those dollars,
It’s about time for an intervention.
Something that ain’t conventional
Not to live up to the hype, rather to your own potential
Excel in the mental
Now go ahead and build on those fundamentals

Maybe one day we gon live in peace
No more blood in the streets, no more RIPs
Maybe we gon finally see
Love and equality, not police brutality
Now this might be Utopia
But I don’t care who you are
This is reaching for the stars
And I’m not settling for less
In my most vivid dreams, this world isn’t such a mess.

[Hook: Silas]

Maybe one day we gon wake up and we gon make up
Maybe one day we gon get it straight and we gon face off
With our biggest fears, get rid off all the tears
We’d much rather smile, let’s go the extra mile
Maybe I’m just a dreamer - I’d say I’m a believer
Maybe one day
