I Have A Dream
Freedom! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you have no hope and live in fear
And you stay in bed all day
A kaleidoscope of drunken cheers
Keeping you at bay
No need to pay attention
Cause the problem's their own
They're in their alco-dimension
Their spirits having flown

In their world they'll never have dreams
They're driven by their outer desperation

But us real folks maintain our lives
That keep us all inspired
We crack our jokes, fly from our hives
We're almost never tired
You need not be a scavenger
No seeking others' loss
You don't need a life fashioner
You are your own boss

'Cos in this world you're meant to have dreams
We are born to believe our ambitions
Be inspired to reach for your aims
With dedication comes determination

(Stay) Stay true to who you are
(Stop) Stop lying to yourself
(Go) And manifest your strength
To get consistently far

Never feel what they think of you
It's just a waste of time
'Cos being real, unique and true
It's never a crime
You can go from making pies
To learning to drive
And you can even apply
For the MI5

In this world you're meant to have dreams
We are born to believe our ambitions
Be inspired to reach for your aims




With dedication comes determination
(Determination)

The lyrics even suggest that one can transition from making pies to learning to drive or even applying for a prestigious institution like the MI5, indicating that the possibilities for growth and accomplishment are limitless.


The chorus is repeated once again, emphasizing the importance of having dreams and believing in one's ambitions. The mention of "determination" underscores the persistence required to pursue those dreams.
