Chains
Chris Rene Lyrics

They say that I'm a dreamer
People believe that I am someone who hopes for unrealistic things.

That makes me a believer
Despite being called a dreamer, I remain confident that my dreams can come true.

Even got it inked upon my arms
I am so dedicated to my beliefs that I have a permanent symbol representing them on my body.

I've been thinking
I have been pondering about something important.

I got a reason
I have a specific purpose or justification for my actions and decisions.

Make a plan to start all over
I am going to create a detailed way to begin anew.

See we all could be happy people
Everyone has the potential to live a fulfilling life, full of happiness.

If we stop feeding our own egos
We should stop giving undue importance to our own desires and self-interests.

And live our lives right where we are
It is crucial that we appreciate the present instead of constantly desiring for more.

Instead of where we wanna be
Rather than focusing on where we want to go, we should learn to value and be grateful for what we already have.

Are you ready to break these chains
Are you prepared to liberate yourself from the limitations and restrictions that hold you back?

Are you ready to find a way
Are you prepared to discover an alternate path or method to attain what you want?

We were meant for more than this
We were destined to be greater than we currently are.

Times is all we got to give
Our lifetime is the only thing we can use to make a difference.

We don't have to live this way
We can choose to alter the manner we live our lives.

Yo this ain't no fairy tale
This is not a make-believe story or fiction.

I made life long friends in jail
I developed strong bonds with individuals I met during my time in prison.

I love them 'til the day I die
They mean so much to me that my affection and loyalty towards them will last until the end of my days.

You remind me
You make me recall or reminisce about something or someone.

A little of me
You have some similarities or traits that I possess.

And there is nothing we can't change
We have the power to modify or improve any situation, regardless of how dire or hopeless it may seem.

I've been locked down chained to my Own thoughts
I have been feeling trapped by my own negative thoughts and emotions.

Now I rock out break out my own box
I have broken free from my self-imposed limitations and I am now confidently expressing myself.

I'm so blessed I'm so happy it's so right
I feel incredibly fortunate and content because things are going well for me.

I'm fresh dressed my best vest is so tight
I have dressed my best and my vest fits me perfectly, making me feel confident and comfortable.

Yo that's what I'm saying
That is exactly what I mean or what I wanted to convey.

Crazy in a whole another lane that's amazing
I am unique or exceptional in a different way, which is truly astounding.

Just to let you know yo I'm coming from the other side
I am coming from a different place, with a unique perspective and experience.

Still I'll always be a kid in my mother's eyes
Despite everything, I remain and will always be my mother's child.

See are you ready now
Are you prepared at this moment?

Ready ready 'cause I'm ready I'm ready I'm ready
I am absolutely prepared and excited to move forward.
