For What You Believe In
Dream On Dreamer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All that's said
Has nothing to do with the way I want to see the world
And now what's left?
I can't find the answers to
The questions in my head

You know we've seen it all
We met the ones that live no more
Deceived your children you said you loved
Fooled the ones that stood up for you
Your light will shine on, until everyone receives
The hidden words of a million hearts
Behold your faith and carry on

They make no sound, when they're coming after you
And I can't hear you screaming out my name
Conquer the flags and capture your legs
Stand for what you believe in

Conquer the flags and capture your legs
The only ones that keep you from breathing
Stand for what you believe in
The only ones that keep you from breathing

Breathe in, breathe out
Behold your true faith and carry on
Read the headlines…
What they say is anything but real

Now listen to what they tell you
Nothing else will be retold
These are the terms they gave you
Walk away without a soul
Because voices remain and mark your names

If you take your hands from your eyes
You don't know where we have been and died tonight
With your eyes shut and reinforced
They won't stop until you pray for gold
As they begin to introduce their stories
Enlighten all their bodies
What they do is pull you in
Have we forgotten how to deal with them?

We're victims of stories
That don't make sense to us




And we are victims of stories
That don't make any fucking sense

All that's said
The things people say don't align with my worldview


Has nothing to do with the way I want to see the world
The words spoken don't align with what I believe in and how I see the world


And now what's left?
After hearing all these things that don't make sense, what is there to believe in?


I can't find the answers to
I'm struggling to find the truth among all these lies and false stories


The questions in my head
The doubts and uncertainties in my mind


You know we've seen it all
We've witnessed the worst of humanity


We met the ones that live no more
We've seen people die because of the lies and deception of others


Deceived your children you said you loved
The people we trusted have betrayed us and those we cared for


Fooled the ones that stood up for you
The loyal supporters have been misled and used for selfish gain


Your light will shine on, until everyone receives
The truth will eventually be revealed to all


The hidden words of a million hearts
The feelings and emotions of countless individuals that have been ignored or dismissed


Behold your faith and carry on
Hold onto your beliefs and don't give up


They make no sound, when they're coming after you
The people who try to bring you down do so silently and covertly


And I can't hear you screaming out my name
Even if you try to reach out for help, I might not be able to hear you


Conquer the flags and capture your legs
Overcome the obstacles and limitations that prevent you from achieving your goals


Stand for what you believe in
Stay true to your values and principles


The only ones that keep you from breathing
The only things that hold you back from living life to the fullest


Breathe in, breathe out
Stay calm and composed in the face of challenges


Behold your true faith and carry on
Stay true to your beliefs and keep pushing forward


Read the headlines…
Take a look at what's going on in the world


What they say is anything but real
The news and media often distort the truth and present a false reality


Now listen to what they tell you
Be cautious and critical of the information you're being fed


Nothing else will be retold
Don't believe everything you hear


These are the terms they gave you
The rules and conditions imposed upon you by those in power


Walk away without a soul
Don't let others strip you of your humanity and spirit


Because voices remain and mark your names
Your actions and words will have an impact and leave a lasting impression


If you take your hands from your eyes
If you confront the truth and face reality head-on


You don't know where we have been and died tonight
You don't know the struggles and hardships that people have faced and continue to face every day


With your eyes shut and reinforced
If you choose to ignore the truth and hold onto your beliefs blindly


They won't stop until you pray for gold
Those in power will continue to take advantage of you and exploit your weaknesses


As they begin to introduce their stories
As they start to tell their lies and manipulate the truth


Enlighten all their bodies
Open people's minds and expose them to the truth


What they do is pull you in
They try to lure you into their web of deception and lies


Have we forgotten how to deal with them?
Have we lost the ability to resist and fight back against those who seek to harm us?


We're victims of stories
We are affected by the narratives and beliefs that are imposed upon us


That don't make sense to us
That don't align with our experiences and beliefs


And we are victims of stories
We continue to be affected and manipulated by these false narratives


That don't make any fucking sense
That are completely devoid of logic and reason
