Broken Dreams Lyrics by Rapper Big Pooh

To Dream In Color

2022

[Verse 1]
Damn, I'm facing work in the morning
Yawning this ain't the future that I dreamed of
Came a long way from baggy jeans, button ups
Incredible Hulks, creative recs two-stepping
Nostalgia is a weapon I refuse to let prosper
But ego is blade that'll slice you up proper from the insides
Look, I'm online with a smile
But offline, survivor mode, broken dial, no style
Plenty substance to numb the feeling
Thought I was just warming up when I hit a ceiling
Life's humbling, picture this, mid-thirties stumbling
Mid-twenties me still laughing
Looking back at forty like all was mеant to happen
I can honestly say that I thought I was done rapping
Hold thе applause, under the light, nothing but broken dreams
The object in the mirror closer than it seems, for real
[Chorus]
Doing everything that I could
Calling audibles, making plays
Planting seeds to view the world
From high rise living spaces
They see the wins, but not the pain
Talking to God at night, I feel ashamed
Asking, "When is it my time to gain?"
Hold my head up, maintain
Focus up until some things change
[Verse 2]
Damn, facing an uncertain future
Nah, wasn't prepared for this sleight of hand
Hearing God laugh as man plans, doing my dance
Robbing Peter, barely paying Paul or Percy, have mercy
Shame, shame, no Cersei
Fighting the urge to do shit that have me looking thirsty
Many talks with my mentor 'bout life and all its splendor
Time to re-emerge what I'm meant for, full steam
Broken dreams are now lessons
Almost lost my life, waking up now a blessing
Who's stressing 'bout who hot?
This new math got me questioning who use bots
My tube socks keep money folded
Never forgetting where I came from, this game corroded
Say something that means something when it's time to
The cream rises to the top, if you dope, they'll find you, for real
[Chorus]
Doing everything that I could
Calling audibles, making plays
Planting seeds to view the world
From high rise living spaces
They see the wins, but not the pain
Talking to God at night, I feel ashamed
Asking, "When is it my time to gain?"
Hold my head up, maintain
Focus up until some things change
