Poor Mans Dreams Lyrics by Davis Absolute

grown retold

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Poor man's dream
Poor man's need
Can You save me
[Verse 1]
Yeah, stuck in a world living a poor man's dream
Truly a search for what this poor man needs
A little bit of Jesus and a cup of Codeine
Remedy to a melody that's putting me at ease
But only for a moment
And leaves me though I hold it
Leaving like a memory
Disowned atonement
Disrobed at his home when I sit alone with
The shame that consumes, surrounds and encloses
Humility covered with layers of insecurity
Pride of aside in place of what truly worries me
We attempt to grow up
Grow cold, hurriedly
Perfect a Facebook of self painted so perfectly
Allow us to Photoshop salvation
Or p90x our way to the Savior
Self reliant tendencies
Coupled with false worship
In pursuit of this lie, of what the world calls perfect
Close the gap of worth and what's worth it
Make beautiful the sin that we've been cursed with
Rationale the evil and bring it to the surface
And accept it as holy and ignore that it's murder
Open the word of God and find compromise
Turn on the radio and vibe out to lies
Excuse me, I don't mean to over-analyze
Just try and see it through my eyes
[Hook]
We're living in a poor man's dream
Trying to find what this poor man needs
Lord can You tell me what's Your name
And can You save me
In the poor man's dream
Trying to find what this poor man needs
Lord I know Your name
And can You save me with the poor man's dream
[Verse 2]
How does someone else out there define poverty
In the same way I guess that you would define honesty
Personified subjectively riches come in all forms
And a sincere lie can calm storms
Though right and wrong seem to be set in stone
Fingertip of God carving the road to a perfect soul
And no, not your own
You can do as you're commanded
And still be damned and never even know it
You see the law was provided to define steps
Until that law was acquired in divine flesh
Never dismiss the ten bars spat by God Himself
Only acknowledge weakness and deny god of self
You see for me this is much more than a dope 16
When they quote my verse they quote my King
And my hopes and dreams are rooted in the Lord
Never give me one award or any applause
Whole world trying to find peace
Lost sheep
My mission is to show them that hope is within arms reach
Just reach out and grab it
Surrender your heart and then God will come and take all that baggage
I know it's weighing you down making it hard to survive
I'm just trying to see it through your eyes
I know it's weighing you down making it hard to survive
God sees it through your eyes
[Hook]
[Outro]
Poor mans dream
Trying to find what this poor man needs
Lord can You tell me what's Your name
And can You save me
In the poor mans dream
Trying to find what this poor man needs
Lord I know Your name
And can You save me with the poor mans dream
