Dreamchaser Lyrics by Amity

Assorted Nonsense

2020

Verse 1:
They say it takes ten thousand hours of deliberate practice/
To be good at something but I’ve written my raps/
Every day for a third of my life and I’m still below average/
But given this fact I won’t slip through the cracks/
Because maybe for others I could be bridging the gap/
And whether I make a profit or not, I don’t think that it matters/
As long as it fuels the fire within and I’m happy/
My things will be packed for a trip to the brink of the atlas/
I know I can’t expect anything from anyone/
The world don’t owe me shit but I’ll never be in debt to it/
And I’m not saying that my friends should be defending me/
The fact of the matter is my success is still indefinite/
But I’m still here endeavouring to render it/
Whether you all look at me with respect or with irreverence/
Either way I can be better than the rest of them/
I’m weathering a desert storm to settle for a level score

Hook:
I dream when I’m awake and I’ll sleep when I’m dead/
There’s no rest for the wicked when you live in your head/
I’ve got my eyes on the prize and I’m chasing my dreams/
I can achieve what it takes and I’ll make you believe

Verse 2:
Sometimes trying to reach your dreams is a nightmare/
And your career path can be a yellow brick road/
Sometimes all you try to achieve will be right there/
But you won’t know it if it hasn’t hit home/
I wish I could go back and sit myself down/
So I’d listen and rid my crippling self-doubt/
Be persistent, leave the system spellbound/
I’m going for broke but I’ve got shit to sell now/
So I walk with a hop in my step/
Feel the sunshine hot on my head/
And I’m ready to lift off with Aussie hip hop in my headphones/
And I’ve never said no to rocking a set/
They scoff when I tell them what I study at uni/
Like “How the hell are you gonna make money from music?”/
But they don’t see that I’m part of a movement/
I’ll prove it ‘cause you won’t believe me until I do it

Hook:
I dream when I’m awake and I’ll sleep when I’m dead/
There’s no rest for the wicked when you live in your head/
I’ve got my eyes on the prize and I’m chasing my dreams/
I can achieve what it takes and I’ll make you believe

Verse 3:
Sticking to my roots like I’m sipping from the sap/
When no one in the room back then had given me a clap/
Spitting for the kids who wouldn’t listen to my raps/
Until I’m in a different city putting Brissy on the map/
Faces in the audience make it a rewarding experience/
When hearing that they came to be supporting me/
I can’t begin to explain the mere euphoria/
When all of the people up in the place are here applauding it/
Add multiplied undivided attention/
With a side of respect and you’d be surprised what you get, man/
If you’re willing to put in the time and the effort/
You’ll be fine, not to mention the ride is the best bit/
But I’ve got a dream and I’m a go get it/
If my conscience tries to come into play I won’t let it/
I’ll stand for what I believe in ‘till I’m bowlegged/
So don’t sweat it, will I ever stop? No, never

Hook:
I dream when I’m awake and I’ll sleep when I’m dead/
There’s no rest for the wicked when you live in your head/
I’ve got my eyes on the prize and I’m chasing my dreams/
I can achieve what it takes and I’ll make you believe
