Mike Dreams - In The Sky Ft Tameya Clark lyrics

rate me

In The Sky

(Chorus)

Oh, up there in the sky

I’m trying to find my dreams

They’re not that far away

Oh whoa, they said we couldn’t fly

But I’m spreading out my wings

And today I’ll find a way

 

(Verse 1)

 

They say oppression is the best fuel

For inspiration

Nothing better can light a fire than swimming

In this cess pool

Of stressful opposition from the rest

When you’re tryna make progression

With they foot upon your neck

When your mind is on next

And they living in the past

I’m off the plantation

They still chillin’ in the grass

Picking in the pasture

I play my own master

Carving the future’s history

Writing my own chapters

I guarantee that my novel will be a novelty

When I was growing up

People labeled me as an oddity

Cuz I wouldn’t to change to the ways

They say I oughta be

Was made to be different

This my optimistic odyssey

They tell me think logically

Think inside reality

But what’s more realistic

Then getting to where you gotta be

My concentration is headed for constellations

My eyes on the prize

Can’t settle for consolation

 

(Chorus)

Oh, up there in the sky

I’m trying to find my dreams

They’re not that far away

Oh whoa, they said we couldn’t fly

But I’m spreading out my wings

And today I’ll find a way

 

(Verse 2)

 

Man, I’ve had these visions ever since I was a kid

They probably came about when I would just be at the crib

All by myself, very imaginative

Just soaking up life

The lights and images

My brother told me stay out them streets

And so I did

Though he’s gone, that promise I keep

And so he lives

Now I’m just trying to get to do

The things he never did

But people keep on telling me that’s

Not how I’m supposed to live

Like I’m not supposed to dream

I shouldn’t have to defend

My desires just to lead the way

Your hatred I don’t need today

One of these crabs in a bucket

Causing a ruckus

‘Cuz I feel it’s my destiny, child

To get it jumpin’ jumpin

Till the day they say my name

Read the writing’s on the wall

So now I don’t hear a thing

I live high above it all

Don’t fear nothing but God

So I do not budge at all

They praying on me to fall

I tell ‘em no not at all

C’mon

 

(Chorus)

Oh, up there in the sky

I’m trying to find my dreams

They’re not that far away

Oh whoa, they said we couldn’t fly

But I’m spreading out my wings

And today I’ll find a way

(Bridge - Tameya Clark)

All my life I been running, running

They said I wouldn’t be nothing, nothing

But I been working hard, to become something

Awww, all my life I been running, running

They said I wouldn’t be nothing, no!

But no matter what they say

I’m gonna make it to the sky, anyway!

(Verse 3 - 8 Bars)

So just ignore what they tell you

Keep pushing it to the limit

And tell ‘em that you ain’t stopping

Until you decide to finish

‘Till all they doubt is diminished

And you show ‘em who you are

I got my guns loaded

And I’m shooting for the stars

The mission’s the ammunition

Busting shots until they listen

Or ‘til the chamber is empty

There’s no weapon formed against me

My generation just want our piece of the pie

So if you with me, grab a fork and grab a plate

And come and meet me in the sky

(Chorus)

Oh, up there in the sky

I’m trying to find my dreams

They’re not that far away

Oh whoa, they said we couldn’t fly

But I’m spreading out my wings

And today I’ll find a way
