In a Dream Lyrics by Umraan Syed

House in the Vines

2020

Fog is forming, everything is dark, frogs are croaking
I see a stark figure, I’m looking for a path, the floor is overgrown but I still move past
Next scene, broken glass
The fags are foaming, to them, the facts are boring
It’s dark but I’m not a piece of ass
Move back, I’m not gonna tap it fast
“Dom Perignon to the one who gets it in the bag”
It’s a whole lotta sinning and I’m steady pouring gas
Fan the flames like napalm rain on my kin
I can smell it, I hear it, I can feel it
The broken limbs and melting of skin
They gather round, laugh and sip gin
I’m helpless, so I take a look inside
My mind’s twisted
I feel sick, disgusted, I can’t stand or sit
I ask, why it had to bе this way? (Oh God, why’d it have to be this way?)
You shouldn’t ask that though, it’s always a test of patiеnce and resilience, so they say
I guess I can see the brilliance in the perseverance
Suddenly, I woke up, had to breathe
Started to choke up from all of the screams, bodies strewn across the dead-end streets
It’s madness, open close my eyes, see the same thing
Heart’s racing, driving through the city, Racine through the streets, hit up Lawrence beach
Get my sanity, brush away the tears, look into the sky, bow your head with your hands out
Feel it in your heart, ask yourself is it gonna get better?
Will the people stay bitter? Is it gonna hurt me when I stand in front of Thee?
So much on my mind that it spills outside
Yesterday had felt like a brand new day
Now I’m marginalized and it’s all part of the lies that we tell ourselves to feel true in disguise
When it’s you and the guys, under a guise, like a fool that is wise, stay true to the lies;
Your reward will be in the end
