Sweet Dreamer
In the land of daffodils and roses
Where the world revolves around those who masquerade and strike poses
Don't lose the glimmer in your eyes
Your visions of the future may require a second glance
Fields and valley, mountains high, and sleepless nights
Lows from where you fight to rise
Heartache and tears for equality
There's something calling you, It's legacy
Love, dig deeper
Hear the cries of your forefathers telling you...don't just survive
Even if you make mistakes
Broken hearts heal and no one can steal your faith
Breathe in glory and release the shame
Look them in the eyes even when they misuse your name
Know your worth, count it well, for you are the only one...
It is your dream to tell
Sweet Dreamer
In the land of daffodils and roses
Where the world revolves around those who masquerade and strike poses
Don't lose the glimmer in your eyes
