Had a dream last night, that my father was in my life
He raised me to be a man, and he taught me wrong from right
But all I had was my mama tellinâ me itâll be alright
But I wonder, did he love me? Did I not deserve his sight?
The cuts was deep from this broken dream, so I was scared of the night
No male figure, so I couldnât tell the dark from the light
I fell into depression, a dream to a nightmare
Somebody save me (Iâm in the middle of nowhere)
Feet movinâ (But I canât go nowhere)
Iâm strong, but things ainât what it seem
Only a few of yâall will understand what I mean
Bare witâ me as I share my broken dreams, hold up
If you wanna know what I been through
Just count my broken dreams
It all ainât what it seems
And some of yâall know what I mean
I remember what I been through
When I count my broken dreams
And It all ainât, what it seems
Let me share my broken dreams
Had a dream last night, that my family was closer
Pride didnât divide us, we let love decide us
But I was tossinâ in my dream
Because we let satan beside us
Everyone wants to lead, but we need somebody to guide us
Got a sickness that canât be cured by you doctors
(Too deep, well let me go deeper)
Abortions across the nation, âcuz we all think itâs cheaper
Never really cried, but on this song Iâm a weeper
Had a dream my aunt didnât overdose on crack
Had a dream my friend neva got shot in his back
Had a dream the World Trade wasnât under attack
Had a dream the biggest crime wasnât black on black
Had a dream that the church neva got off track
Iâm strong, but things ainât what it seem
Only a few of yâall will understand what I mean
Bare witâ me as I share my broken dreams, Hold up
(Chorus)
If you wanna know what I been through
Just count my broken dreams
And It all ainât what it seems
And some of yâall know what I mean
I remember what I been through (What I been through)
When I count my broken dreams
And It all ainât, it all ainât what it seems
Let me share my broken
My broken dreams
Let me share my broken dreams
My broken dreams
(Yeah)
