They say life's a dream but I've been living in a nightmare I've been living in a nightmare Been through the pain & heartbreak it ain't just a slight tare No it ain't just a slight tare I ain't afraid to cry no you can see my tears You can see the pain in my eyes And I don't know if I believe in god I still hope he hears my prayers I just hope he hears me praying at night. Let me take you back where it started it was 2003 When they took my uncle away from me They shot him dead cold left laying in the street. And Ever since mad thoughts have been grating on me They say life's a dream but life just ain't what it seems I've been mad stressed from a teen And I've been tryna' change from nightmares to dreams. It was 2008 when me Granddad died All this pain and I've still never seen me dad cry And after all this time I've still never asked me dad why or how Cause I don't wanna bring up past times. It was 2009 when uncle Marce dropped I still remember that day it felt like me heart stopped But S.A still narh ramp & narh play Memories never fade I think about you everyday. Then in 2022 I lost another one My other Granddad my Igbo king You see that legacy you left it just keeps growing I know I've gotta stay strong & just keep going. I just wish I had more time to spend with them So many things I would have said to them So many bars I would read to them Sat with me granddad fixing cars on a regular. And I ain't buried no friends yet I don't wanna have to So lads please come off these roads when ya can do I'd rather kick back with drink and have a fat zoot Before this road life traps you. I lost me faith in god See I don't know what I believe anymore And I don't know if I can grieve anymore I don't really sleep & I don't even dream anymore. I've lost way too many loved ones on this journey I wonder if I prayed could they hear me There's tears in me eyes my visions blurry But everyday I breathe I know they're near me. Pain don't fade away you learn to cope with it You see I've had it from young I've learnt to grow with it I don't really like to explain how I'm feelin But everyday can be a struggle when you're grieving. Times got me thinkin bout' the ones that I've lost I'm thinkin' bout' ya's all the time know your never forgot I know your watching down on me until the day that I'm gone And I know we'll meet again the day that I drop. But I just wanna do good & make them proud of me I know they're gone but I know they're surrounding me Every step I take I know that they're beside of me I know they're holdin' me down I know they're groundin' me. They say life's a dream but I've been living in a nightmare I've been living in a nightmare Been through the pain & heartbreak it ain't just a slight tare No it ain't just a slight tare I ain't afraid to cry no you can see my tears You can see the pain in my eyes And I don't know if I believe in god I still hope he hears my prayers I just hope he hears me praying at night.
