Dreamer

I’m an insomniac, no I take that back
Cause I always sleep and that’s the facts
Doc’s don’t really know what to think of that
Cause I got a constant dream in the form of rap

But I live my life so wide awake
Always chancing shit like the odds are fake
Life’s a dream just lived in wake
Caught on film so you can’t retake

All I ever wanted to do was music
They said it was dumb so of course I choose it
Rejection’s knocking but I refuse it
Keep my head up and I just do this

Live like I never know when’s the end
Love like I’m never gonna see you again
Laugh like I got away with all my sins
Dream like the ink inside of my pen

I Swear You've Smiled Once

Yesterday I passed you on the street

Tried to smile but you only saw your feet

Look up my dear it would be sweet

If just but once our eyes could meet

I swear you’d see where beauty lies

If only you’d lift your solemn eyes

Life’s a game and love’s the prize

But you can never play if you stay disguised

What could you possibly have to lose

No depression darker than your navy blues

So brighten up a couple hues

And one million choices come into view

I swear you’ve smiled once before

Unfortunately you now ignore

All the wonderful things you could adore

If you’d open your heart’s dead bolt door
