Ambitions
Dream onDreamer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

With your heart in my hands,
And the ambition of things to change,
Do we understand why,
Or is it just so we remember our names?

Remember to breathe as it gets colder.
Remember to write as you get older.
Are you happy as your smile shows?
(To make this never go away.)
Somewhere, anywhere, everywhere.

How much longer, do I have to balance you,
And refine you, to walk with me?

To long have I lived with those that hate peace.
Another one and we can surely make it.
With delivered phrases of pleased memories.
He will remember those lines.
He will remember you, this time.
I built this all, with my own eager hands.

Never been touched with velvet gloves,
Or hatched in golden hay,
I've left scars in a million places
To make myself explained.

I sing the champion theme.
Only when you know it's real.

I sing these songs to express myself in feelings.
I sing those words to show you how my life really assists.
I sing these melodies to survive in peoples minds.
I sing those words so you can see and notice that I'm alive.

My words.
I sing the champion theme.
(My everything.)
Only when you know when it's real.
(My words.)
I sing the champion theme.




(My everything.)
Only when you know when it's real.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dream on Dreamer's song, "Ambitions," draw attention to the power and importance of aspirations, the drive to achieve and make something meaningful of one's life. The opening lines convey a sense of deep responsibility and purpose as the singer holds someone's heart in their hands while thinking about the need for change. But the question arises whether the ambitions are meant to define who we are or whether they reflect our innermost desires.


The song then takes a reflective turn, urging the listener to remember to breathe and write as they grow older, as they continue to pursue their aspirations. The singer then asks if the listener is truly happy with their life, a question that seeks to question the authenticity of one's ambitions. The singer is keen to express the importance of the journey rather than just the end goal. He reminds the listener of the importance of cherishing everyday moments and to be present. The singer then concludes that he is a champion, and his drive to reach his goals and aspirations is what defines him.
