Mike Dreams - In The Sky Ft Tameya Clark lyrics
rate meIn 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
