Castle in the Sky

She took my hand and we flew to the castle in the sky Running through a field of sunflowers Hand in hand eye to eye She smiled brightly like the moon lighting up the night sky Let a dreamer dream We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams Step back don't sentimental Give me just a sec caught up in the instrumental Relieving all my thoughts I'm gonna let the pencil ride Tired of the craziness catch me in the castle in the sky Believe in yourself when no one thought you could My state of mind growing up in the hood Southside 149th story for another time Got like nine lives scared to even blink an eye World never going to stop so why should we Trying to make this dream become reality Young brown boy told he didn't have a voice Listening to music drowning out the noise trying to fill a void Now I get annoyed people think they make a point Say go while the goings good something never understood Cuz we had what we had So we did what we did I guess it is what it is Dream big think big Ever since a little kid Parents showed me how to live Imagination taught me how to fight with the positives Dream big think big Ever since a little kid Parents showed me how to live Imagination taught me how to fight again'st the negatives Let go of the hate and all you got is pain Feel it deep within Still won't allow a change Is it ego is it pride Cross your heart hope to die Stick a needle in your eye catch you in a lie Flip the script turn the page there'll be better days Till then hustle on it everyday In it for the long run the long haul Marathon running gunning never worried about the repercussions Pushing beyond the limits niggas timid Your whole life is scripted The populous is livid No apologies accepted you out of credit Burned the bridges we out here swimming What you make you make for yourself 2020 a loss of vision within itself Pray to god he prepares us all for what he has in mind Till then catch me in the sky Catch me in the sky Put your hand in mine and let us fly Drifting on and on no worries or just barely getting by Castle in the sky Dream big think big Ever since a little kid Parents showed me how to live Imagination taught me how to fight with the positives Dream big think big Ever since a little kid Parents showed me how to live Imagination taught me how to fight again'st the negatives
