Verse 1: Cas Metah
Still on my trek still on my quest
still on my journey and no I don't rest
I don't have time got too many jobs
behind the scenes like Wizard of Oz
I'm on my grind while y'all sawing logs
my hands in more than inside these walls
Empires rise and empires fall
some call it karma some call it God
Long as there's armor I'm a stay guarded
I'm a stay honest that's on my mom
I'll remain solid taking in knowledge
breaking up broccoli in a Raw
Y'all so called leaders in trouble now
when I strategize a battle cry hunker down
Never easy to achieve, went from prince to a king
pleased to meet ya I'm a dreamer from the underground
Hook 1: D1
The taunts respond from all the pawns
but you cannot bait a king
My chakras strong, my armor's on
and you cannot change a thing
The Gods have called upon us all
The voices of angels sing
Stones skip along a frozen pond
Can't shatter or break these dreams
I dream.. (Dream, I dream)
I dream, dream, dream
I dream... (Dream, I dream)
I dream, dream, dream (I dream and I, dream and I)
I dream... (Dream, I dream)
I dream, dream, dream
I dream... (I dream)
Yeah, I dream (I dream and I, dream and I)
Verse 2: Cas Metah
When I was prince, back as a kid
my only dream was reach where I sit
Now on the throne, now that I'm grown
I'm in the zone and not gonna quit
Here to spit game, always drop jewels
None of us slaves but following rules
is part of the way society moves
gotta behave or freedom you lose
I choose to use this wisdom
in a time that's dim and dismal
I keep the people wishful
Don't leak misleading info
be beneficial don't be a minstrel
No I don't need the jesters
you jokers can keep the gestures to yourselves
'cause even peasants need dreams of better
Hook 2: D1
The taunts respond from all the pawns
but you cannot bait a king
My chakras strong, my armor's on
and you cannot change a thing
The Gods have called upon us all
The voices of angels sing
Stones skip along a frozen pond
Can't shatter or break these dreams
I dream.. (Dream, I dream)
I dream, dream, dream
I dream... (Dream, I dream)
I dream, dream, dream (I dream and I, dream and I)
I dream... (Dream, I dream)
I dream, dream, dream
I dream... (I dream)
Yeah, I dream (I dream and I, dream and I)
