Just a Dream
D-Pryde Lyrics

If I could sleep all day, I'd never wake from this dream
If I could escape reality and live in a dream-like state, I would never want to return.

Happily ever after, in this lack luster reality
I wish to find happiness and fulfillment in a mundane and unsatisfying reality.

A backpack full of burden, strapped on insanity
I carry the weight of my struggles and the madness within me.

I'll be walking on sunshine, till the moon is mad at me
I will remain joyful and positive, even when faced with difficulties or obstacles.

this room is a tragic scene, the worker bees drone on
This place is suffocating and depressing, as everyone continues to work tirelessly like drones.

a busy faculty, they're afraid to show emotion
The people around me are always occupied and hesitant to express their true emotions.

Hold on, the mighty Mao, I'm mixing up a potion
Wait, I, as an individual, am trying to find a solution or remedy.

this freedom of thought can be cold, so put a coat on
The ability to think freely may come with challenges and discomfort, so prepare yourself.

No-one can limit your potential, except for yourself
You are the only one who can hold yourself back from reaching your true potential.

start dancing with the stars, tighten up Orion's belt
Begin pursuing your dreams and aspirations, and embrace the challenges that come with it.

Its hard as a diamond, but you can cast this spell
Although it may be difficult, you have the ability to create and manifest your desires.

You're stock is rising, there's no time to sell
You are becoming more valuable and successful, so don't give up or settle.

Yourself short, lets walk tall together
Don't underestimate yourself, and let's support each other as we strive for greatness.

Life is a sport, as a team, we can ball better
Life is like a game, and we can achieve greater success by working together.

through all weather, we need your individual effort
No matter the circumstances, your individual contributions are necessary.

The ref can make a bad call, we can still break the record
Even if external factors seem unfavorable, we can still achieve extraordinary things.

I'm not prepared to analyze your nightmares
I am not ready to fully understand and interpret your deepest fears.

but I might be aware why you want to fight scared
However, I have some understanding of why you may choose to confront your fears.

Life's not fair, that why I wear my heart on my sleeve
Life is often unjust, which is why I display my emotions openly.

I can feel it in the air, every night when I breathe
I can sense the presence of something significant or powerful in the atmosphere.

I'm catching dreams with a net made of dopamine
I am capturing my desires and aspirations using my own natural motivation and pleasure.

I'm swimming in an ocean of yogurt and Ovaltine
I am surrounded by a sea of comfort and sweetness, indulging in pleasurable experiences.

I'm confused as an chocolate octopus is choking me
I feel disoriented and overwhelmed, as if something unexpected and bizarre is suffocating me.

It's so lucid, I just don't know what it means
It is vivid and clear, yet I cannot fully comprehend its significance.

These aren't the dreams I can make happen
These dreams I have cannot be easily turned into reality.

those are just subconscious abstractions
They are merely abstract thoughts and ideas that exist within my subconscious.

cognitive magic or some obnoxious satisfaction
They may be the result of a mysterious cognitive process or simply empty and self-indulgent gratification.

I'm Alice in wonderland, just imagine
I feel like a curious and adventurous individual, exploring a fantastical world.

there's a balance, you gotta find your harmony
There exists a equilibrium that you must discover and maintain.

I don't know path, you can still follow me
I may not have a clear direction, but you can still choose to accompany me.

I'm just a rabbit, living in a turtle colony
I am a relatively fast-paced and energetic individual within a slower and more cautious community.

a savage who doesn't live by the rules of zoology
I am an unconventional and rebellious person who does not conform to societal norms.

I'm up all night, because I dream all day
I stay awake at night because I am constantly daydreaming and envisioning my desires.

even with these bags under my eyes, I feel OK
Despite being tired and sleep-deprived, I am still content and at peace.

Because I can see bright side, when it seems grey
I am able to find positivity and optimism even in the midst of gloom.

and since my time flies, I know the darkness goes away
As time passes quickly, I understand that the hardships and difficulties will eventually fade.

quicker, when I'm focused on the target
The difficult times pass more swiftly when I concentrate on my goals.

filtered, its how I see these hardships
I perceive challenges and adversities through a mindset that filters out negativity.

whispers, all I hear from narcissists
I am surrounded by self-absorbed individuals whose opinions and criticisms are of little importance.

bitter, it's the taste of these doomsday alarmists
They are pessimistic and negative, spreading fear and despair.

Pardon me, but I see a glass half full
Excuse me, but I tend to view things optimistically or with a positive perspective.

even when the snake is tempting us with apples
Even in the face of temptation and deceit, I remain steadfast.

I'll take a sample of knowledge to expand my insight
I will seek out opportunities to gain knowledge and broaden my understanding.

Sweet dreams come from lullabies before midnight
Positive and pleasant dreams are often a result of peaceful and soothing moments before sleep.

Now, here's a bedtime story for the buzzkills
Now, I present a narrative to counteract the negative and pessimistic individuals.

and negative Nancies, I'll make it subtle
And for those who are constantly negative, I will present it in a subtle and non-confrontational manner.

These dreams are mine, anything you say is mute
These dreams belong to me, and your opinions or objections hold no weight.

my attitude can be defined as resolute
I am determined and unwavering in my perspective and determination.

Absolutely, you can choose to rebuke my direction
Certainly, you have the option to reject or criticize my chosen path.

But I will continue to be moving without hesitation
However, I will persist and keep advancing without any doubt or hesitation.

I got the peddle to the metal, as I dance on flower pedals
I am moving forward with great speed and enthusiasm, as if dancing on flower petals.

Its now or never, whenever I'm elevating my level
The moment to take action and strive for improvement is always present, regardless of the circumstances.
