PT.1 

Truly, what is a dream?

Dreams, something we hold onto as we grow,

And something we yearn to achieve.

We often dream about something we love,

Something we truly want to do.

But what if I don't know what makes me happy?

"Study, you'll know everything,

just learn how to be strong and independent,

and you'll be fine." 

that's what I learned growing up. 

To be honest, I never had the chance to dream,

I never had the time to think about what I truly like. 

Life was uncertain until I met you, 

I got a dream after I got to know you. 

Dream big they say, 

and I did. 

I dream to be with you, 

work with you, 

and write songs all day long,

maybe even some stories, 

anything is fine truly, as long as I am with you.  

But I don't know how much of it my reality will allow. 

Dreams are like that I guess, 

we don't get to live in them, 

but we get to live with the hope of them coming true.

Otherwise, 

a house that I can call home, 

some money, a nice car, 

a stable job,

and a life with mother,

a peaceful one.

The future is too far away, 

It'll take time to reach where I want to be. 

It's not about the dreams, 

It's about money. 

I need money to even dream.

I have to work my ass off like always, 

for the big house, big car, big dreams I dream about. 

Lived a life of insecurities and pain, 

I just knew that I needed to earn respect and money,

and live an honest life. 

Brave and courageous, 

that's what I learned to be, 

But I still feel like I am a coward, 

because I break down every time.

I break every time I think about happiness, 

it hurts to think about the good things. 

So how would I know what dreaming is like?

To dream, it requires courage, 

I got that somewhere in me. 

A dream needs time,

And I never had it,

So I never got to understand myself.

Now that I know myself,

My dreams feel too distant.
