Dream Sellin'
Zac Brown Lyrics

A man came up to me
I was approached by a stranger

Said he had a vision out of nowhere
He claimed to have had a sudden revelation

From out of nowhere
Without any warning

Said that God sent him to me
He believed that God had chosen him as a messenger

That he had the answers to all my prayers
He claimed to possess solutions to all my requests

Said I don’t wanna miss out
He expressed his fear of losing opportunities

Miss out on my blessings
He didn't want to overlook the good things in life

He asked me if I had any hope to spare
He inquired if I had any extra optimism to share

Made me wanna beware
His words aroused my caution

When you talk to me
Tell me, are you trying to deceive?

Hey, are you dream sellin’?
Are you trying to sell me illusions?

She walked inside from the rain
A woman entered the room after being in the rain

I was walking out at the same time
I coincidentally was leaving at that moment

Then she grabbed my hand
She took hold of my hand

Skin soft like a baby
Her skin was as smooth as a baby's

Said she recognized me from her dreams
She claimed to have seen me in her dreams before

And that there ain’t no such thing as a coincidence
She believed that everything happens for a reason

She put her lips on my lips and I said
We kissed and I responded

Now, are you dream sellin’?
Tell me, are you trying to deceive?

Are you casing me
Are you studying me closely?

Never thought I’d break a promise I made to myself
I never anticipated breaking my own commitment

If I won’t be honest with me, how can anyone else?
If I can't be truthful to myself, who can I expect to be honest with me?

Was on the left side now I’m to the right of me
I used to have a different perspective, but now I've changed

Done de-essing how I used to be
I am no longer trying to hide or eliminate aspects of my old self

Now my reflection is what I wanna see
I now strive to see a positive reflection of myself

What if our lives are defined
Consider the possibility that our lives are shaped

By how well we walk through the fire
Based on our ability to navigate challenges

Now that I’ve opened my eyes
Now that I've become aware

I see the only way out
I understand that there is only one solution

And the truth is free
The truth is accessible without cost

Now, no more dream sellin’
There will be no more deception

Yeah it’s for free, ohh
Yes, it doesn't require payment

No more dream sellin’
No more attempts to sell fake dreams
