Better lyrics
by K-Rino
[Chorus]
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
[Verse 1: Nickeli Vocalz]
I couldn't think about it, how can I help better the situation
Looking through a pair of angry eyes, ready to face the nation
I'm not a mental patient, I have a little patience
I always considered I have to have consideration
If I ever plan to over exceed their expectations
I saw injured unkindly with no hesitation
Then walked away with no explanation
I got to become better, woke up, had a revelation
Forget the reputation, building up stronger relations
Like an underground phone call, deeper conversations
Startin' at the bottom, repairing the foundation
It's some poor people down here who need our motivation
Then clean out the big house, startin' with the legislation
You should be non-biased with your rules and regulations
Now why you waitin' so long to givin' that compensation
You should punish yourself, that's a total violation
[Chorus]
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
[Verse 2: K-Rino]
Everyday somethin' be happenin'
When will it get better? All the time we keep on askin' when
The day we stop hurtin' each other, I'm imaginin'
'Cause that's the only way we gonna regain what we had again
I wonder what's gon' make us stop all of the senseless merkin'
'Cause preacher's sermons, mamma's tears and rap records ain't workin'
You think a youngster ready to go shoot up his rival's turf
Gon' sit around and let you tell him 'bout a Bible verse
Bein' straight up with him, that's the way to reach him greater
After we show him a better way, we can teach him later
You think they wanna hear you judge 'em, that'll end quick
'Specially when you the one who failed him to begin with
But you can't fight the whole world, some fights you gotta leave 'em (Listen)
Want you to think before you snap and lose you life or freedom (Listen)
Don't be who they say you are, 'cause they ain't loved you ever
The anger that you got in you, use it to make you better
[Chorus]
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
[Verse 3: Drastiko]
If we stop livin' this way, then this world will get better
Food for the hungry and a home for those who in need of shelter
No evil, no greed, no loss, no government, live free
No violence, no racism, or getting killed by police
No poison in the air, just beautiful skies
No television, all they do it just feed us a bunch of lies
A place of no pride or no stress, or disease
A better economy so no one can live in poverty
A world with no social media, where we teach our kid
Where we cherish each moment and don't let valuable time slip
Work together and restore the world, the hatred just ignore
It's time we must poor love in to these empty lost souls
That's our goal
[Bridge]
If we stop living this way
Then we can all make a change
If we stop living this way
Then we can all make a change
[Chorus]
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
[Verse 4: Clymax]
So much tension buildin' up, I feel the racial division
But we can't think of givin', no we gotta play our positions
They tryna take my freedom but my game is persistent
I spot them haters when I see them just like face recognition
I'm loyal with my fam because we thicker than blood
So when you fall and can't get up, that's when I'm pickin' you up
God protect me from the hatred, give me wisdom and trust
You see, humanity's about race, and my religion is love
Pain and heartache ain't forever so I work through the trouble
We gotta make the world better, let's encourage each other
See, your visions distorted, that's why you think we're opponents
It's a big disappointment to see the spirit is dormant
Too many dreamers nowadays, we gotta wake up and talk
'Cause if you want to see [?], you gotta nurture the soul
Cultivate a private [?] build a reasonable Heaven
It starts with you so be the change you wish to see on the planet
[Chorus]
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
