The Dream
Robot Koch & Savannah Jo Lack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’ve been drifting
Dreams, been drifting
I’ve been sifting, scenes
Been sifting

Only I could know
Exactly what I’m fighting For
Only I could know
Exactly what I’m waiting for

I’ve mixing up my dreams
With your dreams
My dreams
With your dreams

You’ve been switching
Screens, been switching
You’ve, been shifting
Schemes, been shifting

Only you could know
Exactly what you’re fighting for
Only you could know
Exactly what you’re waiting for

You’ve been mixing up your dreams
With my dreams




You’re dreams
With my dreams

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Robot Koch's song "Dreams" portray a sense of introspection and contemplation. The opening line, "I've been drifting," suggests a feeling of being lost or disconnected, perhaps both physically and emotionally. The repetition of "I've been sifting, scenes / Been sifting" further emphasizes this idea of searching and sorting through various experiences or memories.

This could represent the dynamic and influence that another person can have on the singer's dreams and aspirations.


The second part of the lyrics, starting with "You've been switching / Screens, been switching / You've been shifting / Schemes, been shifting," introduces the other person's perspective. It implies that they too have been navigating their own path, constantly adapting and altering their plans or strategies. The sentiment of "only you could know / exactly what you're fighting for / only you could know / exactly what you're waiting for" echoes the previous verse, emphasizing that each person has their own unique perspective and motivations.


The closing lines mirror the earlier verse, expressing the idea of the two individuals interweaving their dreams. "You've been mixing up your dreams / with my dreams / your dreams / with my dreams" suggests a mutual influence and shared aspirations between the singer and the other person.

🌸 Set your mind to win, re-write your way of thinking to more positive way
Let love flow freely from within

I’m not afraid of death, certainly not afraid of life as I live each day to the fullest
No matter who kicked me down, I dust myself off and rise again
That’s how I GROW and discarding all my UNCERTAINTY

No matter what I have to face, I go in with everything I have and then some
CERTAINTY in my very being, I strive to do my utmost best

Who drives me, no one......just me......my blood, my heart and my soul
the SIGNIFICANCE of that, it’s all I have and all I ever need

What my goal is, to do better today than I did before....doing what I’m passionate about. To ensure my CONTRIBUTION is also worth while

As for LOVE and CONNECTION, I do all of this for my loved ones because LOVE is the one fuel that keeps me going day after day....I never look back ☝🏼

and this is how I humbly set my mind to WIN ✨
